Can't find replacement skirting

Post by davejb » Sun Oct 15, 2017 5:55 pm

We just bought our 2004 Skyline in June. Doing fixes and improvements here and there. A few sections of skirting need to be replaced. The panels measure 13.5" wide but all I can find online are 16" wide. Any ideas? I spent a couple hours searching and found nothing.

Many skirting manufacturers changed to the larger size over the past years, check with a local home dealer or even a home park

are your panels solid or perforated for air flow. a lot of skirting is done with vinyl soffit panels which measure 12" exposed and about 13.5 total width including locking flange.

We had a similar issue so we ended up getting prices on the shorter skirting and found that because it is in short supply it was more expensive than simply buying the readily available stuff and trimming it to fit. So we just set up a jig and cut it all before installing. May not work for you depending on your lot grade but it was cheaper overall for us.

Hope that helps.
