Understanding James Hardie® Board and Batten Siding

James Hardie® Board and Batten combines two key elements—Hardie® Panel and Hardie® Trim Batten Boards—to create its signature vertical design. Here’s a closer look at how they work together:

Hardie® Panel

  • Purpose: Forms the primary vertical boards of the siding design.
  • Installation: Mounted vertically to create clean, seamless panels.
  • Options: Available in finishes like Select Cedarmill® (replicating woodgrain) or Smooth.
  • Material: Built from robust fiber cement to handle diverse weather conditions.

Hardie® Trim Batten Boards

  • Purpose: Serves as the battens, adding texture and covering panel seams.
  • Appearance: Offered in Rustic Grain or Smooth textures for design flexibility.
  • Material: Made with the same fiber cement as Hardie® Panels for durability and cohesion.

Creating the Iconic Look
Hardie® Panel is installed vertically as the base, while Hardie® Trim Batten Boards overlay the seams. This combination not only creates a distinct vertical design but also enhances the structure’s durability and weather resistance.

Versus Horizontal Lap Siding

While Hardie® Lap Siding provides a traditional horizontal aesthetic, Board and Batten emphasizes bold, vertical lines for a modern farmhouse or contemporary look.
