Demand for shake-style accents remains strong across many housing markets, particularly for gables and architectural focal points. The new profile addresses that trend with a smaller reveal that creates a more detailed appearance than larger-format shake products.

The LP® SmartSide® 8” Brushed Smooth Shake Lap Siding is available primed, features a customizable 5-inch to 6-inch reveal, and measures 8 inches wide by 4 feet long. Its reversible design allows installation with either a straight or staggered edge, giving builders and homeowners additional design flexibility.

The new offering complements existing LP SmartSide 12-inch shake products, which support larger 7-inch to 10-inch reveals. Together, the expanded portfolio allows builders and homeowners to select the profile that best matches their architectural vision.

“Many homeowners are drawn to the character and craftsmanship that a smaller shake reveal can create,” said LP Director of Product Management and Innovation Sarah Caperton. “The LP SmartSide 8” Brushed Smooth Shake gives builders and homeowners another option to achieve that look while delivering the durability and performance they expect from LP SmartSide products.”

The new shake profile is engineered for long-lasting performance and is backed by LP’s 5/50-year limited warranty, providing added peace of mind for builders and homeowners. Refer to the limited warranty at LPCorp.com/literature for complete details, including important limitations and exclusions.
