Chevron

Traditional corrugated siding often relies on exposed fasteners, relatively shallow profile depths, and generic trim details that interrupt the overall design. FastPlank® Chevron was engineered as a complete architectural system. Its concealed-fastener Clip & Slide™ installation platform eliminates visible fasteners entirely, while the deep Chevron profile creates significantly greater contrast between light and shadow than conventional corrugated products. Manufactured from precision-engineered 6063-T6 aluminum extrusions, every peak and valley remains crisp, consistent, and dimensionally stable over time. Purpose-designed outside corners and matching trim profiles carry the Chevron geometry through transitions and terminations, creating a cohesive architectural appearance rather than a profile that simply stops at the edge of the wall.

Chevron is installed horizontally, allowing its deep profile geometry to create strong, continuous lines across the façade. The pronounced peaks and valleys generate dramatic light-and-shadow contrast throughout the day, giving the building a dynamic appearance that changes as lighting conditions shift. This horizontal orientation emphasizes length, scale, and architectural presence while showcasing the full visual impact of the Chevron profile.

Chevron is offered in four stocked woodgrain and four stocked solid finishes, plus 20 special-order woodgrains. The ColorMatch® Program supports custom solid color matching to project specifications.

Chevron is best suited to contemporary architecture where bold geometry, texture, and visual impact are part of the design intent. Its deep profile and dramatic shadow pattern make it particularly effective on multifamily, commercial, institutional, and recreational buildings where the façade is intended to be a defining architectural feature. Whether used across large wall areas or as a focused accent element, Chevron brings depth, movement, and a strong sense of identity to the building.

While Chevron can be used on residential projects, it is most naturally suited to multifamily and commercial applications. Its bold geometric character and strong visual presence align particularly well with larger building scales, where the depth of the profile and the interaction between light and shadow can be fully appreciated. On residential projects, it is often used selectively as a feature element to create a memorable architectural statement.

On commercial projects, Chevron stands out through its bold geometry and dramatic interaction with light. The deep profile creates pronounced peaks and valleys that generate strong contrast between illuminated and shadowed surfaces, giving the façade a dynamic appearance that changes throughout the day. This depth and movement allow Chevron to transform large wall areas into architectural features rather than simply exterior cladding. Manufactured from precision-engineered 6063-T6 aluminum extrusions, the profile maintains crisp, consistent lines across expansive elevations. The concealed-fastener Clip & Slide™ installation system keeps the façade clean and uninterrupted, while purpose-designed corners and trim profiles carry the Chevron geometry through transitions and terminations. The result is a highly resolved architectural system that delivers a level of visual impact and refinement not typically associated with traditional corrugated siding.

Yes. Chevron pairs exceptionally well with other cladding materials and profiles, where its bold geometry can be used to create contrast, hierarchy, and visual interest within a façade composition. Its depth and strong shadow pattern make it particularly effective as a feature element against flatter materials such as panel systems, masonry, or other FastPlank® profiles. Because all FastPlank profiles share the same Clip & Slide™ installation system and tongue-and-groove platform, transitions between systems remain clean, cohesive, and straightforward to execute.
