Hello,
I'm about to install trim on our newly mounted front door, but there's a gap of about 7-8 mm all around. At the same time, I don't have a good machine to cut a piece straight and neatly, so the question is whether I can use, for example, molding strips that are actually intended for indoor use?
Initially, the thought was to use Tec7, but 7 mm feels a bit too much around the entire door, and it's also very difficult to reach around the hinges.

I had the same problem and bought smyglist which I painted with outdoor paint.I Ironside said:Hello,
I am in the process of installing trim on a newly installed exterior door. Unfortunately, there is a 7-8 mm gap from the trim to the door/sidelight frame. The first thought was to use Tec7 but 8 mm all around feels a lot, and it's also difficult to reach near the hinges. At the same time, I don't have a good machine to split 7-8 mm in a good way.
Could one buy smyglist for indoor use and use it outdoors? It will, of course, be painted.
Regards
