Showcase Your Gables with James Hardie Siding and Trim

The gable is the triangular portion of a wall between the edges of a dual-pitched roof. Whether your home is modern, traditional, updated or antique, the pitched-roof style accommodates a variety of home types and has for hundreds of years.

Some are simple and unadorned; others flaunt decorative elements like gingerbread and Victorian-inspired trim. There are front-gables, side-gables, and cross-gables, which means the gables are on both the front and side.

If you’re hoping to up your sense of modern style, take a peek at a few homes with gables clad in HardiePanel^® vertical siding—a simple accent that can boost your home’s curb appeal.
