Quoins
Our Quoins are produced in thicknesses to suit various walling finishes and in heights of 140, 215 & 290mm to suit brick, blockwork or masonry coursing. They are also suitable for use in both traditional and timber framed buildings.
Quoins are an ideal feature and decorative solution when forming corners, eliminating the introduction of “cut” blocks as pictured immediately below.

Small Plain Quoins
These small Quoins can be used in facing brick or masonry applications where small and relatively inexpensive Quoins are required. These are available in one thickness (100mm) and two heights, 140mm and 215mm.
| Ref: | Height (mm) | L1 (mm) | L2 (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| SEQ1 | 140 | 300 | 150 |
| SEQ2 | 215 | 300 | 150 |
| SEQ3 | 140 | 300 | 182 |
| SEQ4 | 215 | 300 | 182 |
| SEQ5 | 215 | 300 | 215 |
If these 100mm thick Quoins are used in roughcast applications, they can be built 20mm proud of the brick or block line to allow for the roughcast. Attention should be paid to the increased cavity – particularly in timber framed buildings where thicker cavity fire stops will be required.
Special Custom Quoins
Special quoins, including obtuse and acute angled quoins can be produced to suit customer requirements at any height and leg lengths, however advisories may be made if the handling self-weight becomes excessive.
Special V-Shaped Quoins 135 Degree internal angle.
