ABSTRACT:
The baseboard arrangement includes a fairing unit, which is used in conjunction with a baseboard member of the type comprised of a flat foot portion adapted to lie flat against a floor surface and a vertical wall-facing portion adapted to lie flat against the meeting wall surfaces of a projecting corner of a room or corridor, for example. The flat foot portion of the baseboard member is slitted in direction transverse to the elongation of the baseboard member, with the slit terminating at the vertical wall-facing portion of the baseboard member. Accordingly, the baseboard member, at the region of such slit, can be bent around the projecting corner, thereby causing the slit to spread and form a larger corner gap. The fairing unit includes two flat leg portions adapted to lie flat against the floor surface along the meeting walls of the projecting corner, underneath part of the foot portion of the baseboard member, and these leg portions enclose a substantially right angle. The fairing unit is furthermore comprised of a raised corner portion adapted to fill the corner gap in the bent baseboard member, and at least one vertical wall-facing portion adapted to lie flat against at least one of the meeting wall surfaces of the projecting corner, behind part of the vertical wall-facing portion of the baseboard member, and is connected to at least one of the leg portions along the inner edge of such leg portion.
