In the pictures below you can see what happens when the eaves profile is not used in facade projections such as window lintels, cornices or balconies. The main purpose of the profile is to divert rainwater away from the façade by purposefully draining water from the outer edge of the eaves profile. This prevents water from running down the façade and compromising its integrity. Prolonged exposure to water running down the façade will cause flaking. The rehabilitation of such a façade is very difficult and costly.

The following picture gives you an insight into a properly implemented cornice using the PROTEKTOR eaves profile No. 3794. We will be glad if you do not underestimate these details and are inspired by them.
