Multi-tone vinyl that reads like weathered, hand-stained boards
Hardwood Valley II is the Kaycan siding to pick when the house should look like stained, weathered boards rather than painted ones. Every colour is a variegated blend with a deep wood grain, so no two courses read exactly alike. It comes as a D4 lap or a D5D Dutch lap, both at 200 sq. ft. per carton.

Hardwood Valley II is the Kaycan siding to pick when the house should look like stained, weathered boards rather than painted ones. Every colour is a variegated blend with a deep wood grain, so no two courses read exactly alike. It comes as a D4 lap or a D5D Dutch lap, both at 200 sq. ft. per carton.
Most vinyl siding is one flat colour per panel. Hardwood Valley II is not. Kaycan blends reds, blues and browns with similar hues inside each colour, then gives the face a deeply textured grain, so a finished wall has the uneven tone of hand-stained boards that have been out in the weather for a while. Kaycan calls it the charm of antique wood. It suits owners who want a wood look from the street and have no interest in restaining.
Kaycan lists a 4 in. lap and a 5 in. Dutch lap profile. The D4 (VKND40) is a double 4" lap in 12'6" lengths, packed 24 panels to a carton. The D5D (VKND5C) is a double 5" Dutch lap in 12' lengths, 20 panels to a carton. Both cartons cover 200 sq. ft., so every box is two squares no matter which profile you run. Pick the D5D for the Dutch lap face and wider 5" courses, or the D4 for narrower 4" courses and longer panels.
Kaycan's brochure lists the panels at 0.044" thick. LineLock locks each panel to the course below for a steadier wall, ChromaLock protects the colour from UV fading, and the vinyl is Kaycan's Duratron formulation. The line carries Kaycan's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Kaycan's Hardwood Valley colours include Cypress, River Rock and Vermont Maple, and the range has also included Cherry, Natural Oak and Weathered Wood. Not every colour comes in every profile, so we confirm what is available when we quote. Because the blend moves across the panel, look at a real sample before you commit. For trim, Kaycan's advice is simple: a neutral accent to blend in, or a darker contrasting trim to make the house stand out. The matching pieces are the 3" outside corner (VCNN3), 1/2" inside corner (VCBINP), undersill trim (VTUTB) and 5/8" J-trim (VJB558). Send us your wall measurements and we will quote panels and trim together.

Never face-nail siding: always fasten through the nailing hem only
Space fasteners 12" to 16" apart on centre and centre them in the nail slots
Leave 1/32" clearance between fastener head and nailing hem (panels must move freely)
Leave 1/4" clearance at all openings and accessory channel stops; increase to 3/8" when installing below 40°F
Do not caulk between panels, between siding and J-channel, or between siding and corner trim, panels must expand and contract freely
When installing a panel, push up from the bottom until the LineLock™ system is fully engaged with the piece below, then fasten without stretching
Drive fasteners straight and level: nailing at an angle distorts panels and causes buckling
When finishing top of wall, perforate cut edge with snap-lock punch approximately every 8" so tabs face outward
Overlap horizontal siding panels approximately 1": excessive overlap restricts free movement and can cause product failure
Stagger end lap joints so no two courses are vertically aligned unless separated by at least 3 courses
Check every fifth or sixth course for horizontal alignment; also check alignment with adjoining walls
Use fasteners long enough to penetrate a minimum of 3/4" into the nailable base
Install starter trim level: it sets the alignment for all subsequent courses; nail at 10" intervals
Keep starter strip ends at least 1/4" apart from corner posts and J-channels to allow for expansion
Apply undersill trim under all windows; use snap-lock punch on cut panel edges every 6" for secure fit
Integrate code-compliant flashing with the water-resistant barrier around windows, doors and other openings before siding
Do not install over foil-backed foam insulation: voids Kaycan warranty
Asbestos siding is a regulated material: contact the appropriate environmental agency before residing over it
Check all local building codes and fire regulations before installation; local code requirements always take precedence
In new construction, avoid green lumber as underlayment, siding can only be as straight as what lies beneath it

Formula
Siding required (sq. ft.) = wall areas + (gable width x gable centre height x 0.75), with no deduction for openings and no added waste percentage
1 square = 100 sq. ft.; each Hardwood Valley II carton covers 2 squares (200 sq. ft.)
Step 1: Round each measurement up to the next 3" (0.25 ft), e.g. 10'-1" becomes 10.25'
Step 2: For each wall, multiply width by the height at the eaves and add the walls together
Step 3: For each gable, multiply the gable width (including overhangs) by its height at the centre, then multiply by 0.75 to allow for waste cutting along the rake
Step 4: Add walls and gables. Do not deduct windows and doors; because openings are not deducted and every dimension is rounded up, no extra waste percentage is needed
Step 5: Divide the total by 100 and round up to the next whole square
Step 6: Soffit: multiply the length of each eave and rake section by the overhang width and add them together
Step 7: Accessories: measure the linear feet of starter, J-trim, corner posts, undersill trim and drip cap
Step 8: Cartons: divide the total siding area by 200 sq. ft. and round up
