Wood ShimsNelson Wood Shims 20.3 cm (8 Inch), Kiln Dried Wood, Pack of 24

Pack gaps and level fittings

Wood shims are used to fill gaps and bring doors, windows and similar fittings level and square during installation. They slide into place to adjust height or spacing. They are a common item to keep in a DIY or trade toolbox.

Kiln dried wood in an 8 inch length

These shims are made from kiln dried wood. Each one is 8 inches long, a practical length for frames and fittings around the home.

What comes in the pack

This listing is for two packs of 12 shims, giving 24 shims in total. Having a good supply means you can stack or pair them where a gap needs more packing.

How to use

Slide a shim into the gap between the frame and the wall and pair or stack more shims until the door or window is level and square. Fix the frame in place and trim the shims flush.
