Product Information

Features & Benefits

• 2 m Length for Standard Facades: Levels a full 2‑metre strip in one pass; ideal for residential building exteriors, floor‑tall bands, and efficient work from scaffolding. Easy to carry and highly manoeuvrable
• Exterior‑Spec Reinforced Profile: Wider, thicker section than internal‑only rules; stands up to wind, rain, sun, and temperature variation without bending, sagging, or deforming
• One‑Piece Seamless Build: Zero joints; no thickness variation or undulation as the rule is drawn across fresh render — guaranteeing a perfectly smooth, uniform surface
• Anodised Protection: Enhanced chemical resistance against cement and lime; will not rust or corrode, residues wipe away effortlessly
• Dual‑Edge Service: Both working edges are fully usable — simply flip the rule over and use the opposite edge when one side wears for extended service life
• Light & Balanced: At roughly 2 kg, easily held and guided by one person; minimal arm and shoulder fatigue through long working shifts
• Suitable Indoors Too: A practical choice for rendering large living rooms, halls, and spacious interiors — genuine multi‑purpose versatility

Application Areas

• External Rendering: Levelling residential facades, individual building sections, floor‑height bands, and structures of standard storey height
• Insulation & ETICS: Smoothing and correction before applying thermal insulation render, plus final coat levelling
• Internal Rendering: Pulling render in large rooms, corridors, and open‑plan spaces
• Repair & Refurbishment: Facade renewal, partial render patching, and localised surface corrections
• Screed & Floors: Levelling large room floors, terrace screeds, and balcony bases
• Frames & Edges: Precision straightness control around doors, windows, and large openings

Usage & Maintenance Guidelines

• Rinse with water before and after use to remove cement and lime residues immediately; hardened material compromises edge straightness
• Do not drop onto hard surfaces; a bent profile will not pull true
• Store flat on a level base or hang vertically; avoid leaving suspended from one end for extended periods
• Dress lightly worn edges with fine abrasive or a file as needed
• If fitting an extension handle or pull grip, ensure connection points seat fully and securely
• Keep in a dry, shaded location; do not leave exposed to prolonged direct sunlight

Frequently Asked Questions

What distinguishes an external rule from a standard internal rule?
External profiles are wider, thicker, and anodised for weather resistance; engineered to endure wind, rain, and sun. Internal rules use thinner sections and are not designed for long‑term exterior exposure.

Is the 2 m length jointed or solid?
Solid one‑piece extrusion with no joins; easy to transport and store, fitting comfortably inside standard vehicles.

Can one person use it?
Yes — its balanced weight makes single‑hand operation straightforward; fitting dual grips allows two‑person working for even greater efficiency.

Can it be used internally?
Yes — well‑suited to rendering spacious interiors; higher durability makes it an asset for busy, recurring work.

Will grips from other brands fit?
Manufactured to general standards; Dekor‑branded grips are recommended for guaranteed fit and trouble‑free operation.

Does it come as a single unit?
Yes — supplied as 1 piece per package; bulk order quantities may be specified when ordering multiple units.
