  • Patent number: 3953268
    Abstract: An adjustable tile trim which can be constructed of tile itself, wood, plastic, or any suitable material, which has two inner surfaces substantially at right angles to each other, one of which abuts the front face of a cabinet, and the other surface fits over the terminating front edge of the tile, both surfaces being cemented. If the tile terminating edge is receded from the edge of a counter, a filler such as mortar is placed between the terminating tile edge and the face of the cabinet for structural strength and other purposes. Hence, the necessity of trimming the tile to the trim has been obviated in that the trim can accommodate any range of termination setback from the face of the counter and the trim is adjustable in a vertical plane to accommodate any thickness of tile.
