5ft Faux Wood Beam Strap, Flexible Beams Gap Hiding Strap, Metal Look Strap

UPDATE: The adhesive backing worked for a few days but eventually peeled off, so I had to use spray adhesive that has a permanent seal. Even though I had to do some extra work and use an additional product, I still think these are worth the price! They look so real! I’m using this on our ceiling beams and it looks fantastic! After reading reviews, I wasn’t expecting it to adhere very well so I was planning on needing to use alternative adhesive BUT it’s working great so far! It seems very sticky. I just ordered another 5’ kit so hopefully that one is just as good.

Used these to hide seems on metal square shape. I prepped the area and stuck them on. Looked good until I came in to check on them and all had come unstuck around each corner. Not only that the roll had some sort of defect midway through reducing total length. I didn’t need the full amount but those that do, this may hinder some applications. The dots (faux studs) are too shiny, I left them off not to mention they were all over the package, they all escaped off the sheet they were on.

Looks amazing. Unless you touch it you never gonna know. I did read other reviews prior to purchase which were helpful. We have faux wood beams and wanted something to hide gap between wall and other beams. I used a blow dryer to heat and make strip more plyable to fit U shape of the beam. Then added a small amount of liquid nails to glue side. Used pins to hold in place while drying then added the dots over pin holes. Worked perfectly.

We had to tack it to the beam because it didnt stay stuck to the raw pine. Once tacked, and the dots (faux bolts) affixed, it looks fantastic.

Looks like it would be janky even it cubes in the wrapper packaging but actually does a nice job looks good from the ground ready to install if course and the glue tackyness works!

They did not stick on the edges very well

This product is trash get black tape and use that instead I used this for some faux beans ciling very high and it did not hold up not even a day what a waiste of time and work !!!! Get something more sturdy less plastic and definitely better adhesive! This product should sell for $1.00 at the dollar store

is nice good looking but the glue in it only lasted 1 day

Ok, aquí estaba yo, con la gran idea de darle a mi oficina un toque industrial, algo que gritara: "Sí, aquí trabaja alguien con estilo, con visión." Pero, ¿sabes qué no tiene estilo ni visión? Esta cosa. La correa de "madera sintética" es todo menos sintética en el buen sentido. La textura se siente como si hubiera salido de una impresora 3D en su primer día de trabajo. El look, en lugar de ser robusto y moderno, parece más el intento fallido de un estudiante de arte en un mal día. Y para rematar, el material no tiene ni el carácter para aguantar el uso ni el descaro para parecer elegante. Al final, en lugar de una oficina de revista, terminé con un espacio que parece salido de un catálogo de decoraciones de descuento. Si buscas algo que no arruine tu visión industrial, esto no es. Una estrella, y eso porque no me dejaron poner menos.

This looks fantastic on my makeshift wood beams in my attic conversion

Fairly easy to work with. The glue on the dots is really sticky so make sure you place them exactly where you want them the first time else you may need to touch up some paint. This was my first attempt at a faux styrofoam bean and it turned out pretty well. Address these faux straps really finished it. To ensure the corners wrapped well, I measured where the corners were and folded them over before removing the protective layer. One seems to be peeling a bit, but nothing a little construction glue can’t remedy. All in all, a good product for the price.

Did the job

The product doesn't serve the purpose it is being sold for. It is so rigid that it can not be wrapped around the beam. If the beam is square on corners, it is impossible to wrap it. Even if the corners are bit rounded ( as usually for rustic beams), its not very easy. Only easy thing u can do with this strap is put it flat against any material. I called the customer support and was told the instructions are given in Amazon. Instruction only say that it can be easily cut with utility knife or scissors. I asked the company guy to explain how to wrap t at the corner. His only answer was it is very easy and read the instructions. I asked him why you guys put a small video on Amazon and make everyone's life easier, but no answer. Heavy duty utility knife works but scissors can't cut it. One option is to make a groove in it at the corner. But to do it you have to be professional rubber cutter.(If there is anything like that). If you don't apply pressure on knife, it doesn't cut it. Little extra pressure and knife runs through the strap. I wasted 1/4 of total strap trying various methods. Finally I had to cut on angle and sand it on belt sander to make 45 mitre. Had to do both sides of centre piece and one side of side pieces. Overall, the product is not worth money and time spent. I would give it zero or minus star if option is there. If anyone have an easy way of doing it please post it. Maybe I am doing it totally wrong and putting it on the product.
