Hardie™ Gecko Gauge Cladding Tool (Pair)
The Gecko Gauge is a professional-grade installation tool designed to make fitting Hardie® Plank (overlap style) faster and more accurate. It acts as a friction-clamp that securely holds the next board in place while you fix it, eliminating the need for two people to hold a single plank.
Each gauge is adjustable, allowing you to set the exact reveal you need. For a standard James Hardie installation, the gauge is set to ensure a consistent 30mm overlap across every course of boards. This ensures your horizontal lines are perfectly straight and your project meets the manufacturer’s warranty requirements.

Non-Marring Design: Specially engineered to grip the board without scratching or damaging the factory-applied paint finish.
