HardiePanel Vertical Siding is a unique design choice that adds a contemporary look and feel to your homes exterior. It's a new take on an old classic so to speak and the running of the siding vertically offers some aesthetics that just can't be matched with horizontal siding.
Many homeowners choose to pair HardiePanel with other Hardie siding products such as HardieTrim or HardiePlank Lap Siding to create a unique and distinctive look. Hardie Panel Vertical siding comes pre-primed with James Hardie's proprietary ColorPlus technology for durability and color longevity. The uniform surface promotes paint adhesion and also resist mildew and fungus.

Why Vertical Siding?
Because of its durability and low maintenance, vertical siding has become an extremely popular choice with homeowners. The benefits go beyond that though as there is also functionality that comes from the aesthetics of the vertical lines. For instance, the vertical placement can be used to emphasize height on low walls and short gables or to accent a second or third story. Even though the vertical lines are subtle, they are also unique enough to add character to an otherwise bland architectural structure.Durability
Vertical siding tends to be more durable than horizontal in certain aspects. During a rainfall, improperly installed or damaged horizontal siding is more prone to water accumulation under each slat, which can lead to costly water damage and wood rot. The nature of horizontal siding allows for water to seep in between the slats, while rain wicks down uninterrupted on vertical siding.Types of Vertical Siding
