Abstract

A corner piece is used with siding trim. At corners where strips of siding trim meet, the trim may be square cut and a corner piece inserted between the two square cut ends to finish the corner without using a miter or butt joint. The corner piece has a facing block that fits between the ends of two adjacent trim strips and two connector strips that project from two sides of the facing block to engage in the channels of the two trim strips. The coupling strips are preferably designed to snap fit into the trim strips.
