Tools Materials and Hardware

Tools, materials, and hardware are the implements, substances, and fittings used in building and renovation work. Adhesives, sealants, and caulking connect surfaces through choices involving substrate preparation, compatibility, movement, and finish. Tiled surfaces, doors, and interior woodwork place these small-scale connections within larger installation projects, showing the relationship between individual materials and the assemblies in which they are used.

Joints connect tiles, trim, doors, and windows with the surfaces and openings around them. The materials and hardware at these junctions influence alignment, movement, sealing, and the finished appearance of an interior or exterior assembly.
