Skirting
Skirting: the detail that makes your entire room come together.
Skirting boards are the unsung heroes of a polished-looking interior. They connect walls to floors elegantly and conceal unsightly gaps or cables with ease. Whether you want to update your current look or cover existing skirting boards, Orac has the ideal skirting board cover for any interior.
Skirting Boards: The Finishing Touch for Your Home
Skirting boards may be a small detail, but they make a big impact. They create a seamless transition between wall and floor, protect surfaces from scuffs, and neatly conceal gaps or cables. At Orac, we offer a wide range of skirting types to suit every interior, from contemporary stepped profiles to classic decorative designs.
Unlike standard MDF skirting boards, Orac skirting is made from durable Duropolymer®, a lightweight, water-resistant material that comes ready primed and easy to paint. Each 2m length is designed for convenience, making it easy to handle, long-lasting, and readily available across the UK.
Designer Skirting for Every Style
Orac skirting boards combine style with practicality, giving you the freedom to create interiors that feel polished and complete. Our collection includes the tall skirting board, ideal for adding a sense of height and architectural elegance, and the flexible skirting board, perfect for curved walls or columns, helping you achieve a seamless, professional finish.
For renovations, our cover skirting options make updating a room simple. These profiles fit neatly over existing skirting boards, offering a quick, mess-free way to refresh your interior without full removal or replacement. Every profile is made from durable, water-resistant Duropolymer® and comes ready primed, allowing you to paint and customise to suit your style.
From practical solutions to designer touches, Orac skirting provides versatility and elegance for every space, whether you are creating a sleek modern interior or adding subtle character to a traditional room.
What are the different types of skirting board?
Choosing the right skirting board can completely transform the look and feel of a room. At Orac, we offer a variety of skirting types to suit every interior:
• Bullnose skirting, a simple, rounded profile that complements modern interiors with a clean, minimalist finish
• Ogee skirting, featuring elegant curves for a classic, timeless appeal
• Torus skirting, a gently rounded profile that works well in both traditional and modern spaces, adding subtle character without overpowering the room
• Stepped and minimalist profiles, such as the SX180, which can even be continued around doors for a sleek, architectural look that brings an Art Deco or modern edge.
Orac skirting boards are designed to enhance any space, from living areas and bedrooms to kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial interiors. Whether you want subtle elegance or a statement profile, our range of styles provides the perfect finishing touch for your home.
How do skirting and architrave work together?
While Orac does not offer exact matching skirting and architrave sets, many of our profiles coordinate well together. The key to a balanced look is proportion. For the most visually appealing finish, your skirting board should sit slightly behind the architrave, creating a neat layered transition between wall and door frame.
If you are looking for architrave to complement your chosen skirting, our team can guide you towards options that work beautifully together, whether you prefer something slim and contemporary or more detailed and traditional. Some profiles can even be continued around doors for a cohesive and refined finish.
