Unique wall detail, with or without recessed LED lighting. Designed as a system component for all trimless Dorsis interior doors.
A flush recessed baseboard, sometimes called a skirting board, is a unique wall detail increasingly popular in contemporary architecture. Combined with concealed door jambs, the flush base has become the sought-after design standard in North American residential construction.
We designed the aluminum extrusion profile of the Dorsis Linus flush baseboard for ½" or ⅝" drywall applications. The minimum flush baseboard height is 2-¼", with custom height option of 4".
You will have complete freedom in material selection for your baseboard. The insert can be an MDF baseboard painted in the wall color or contrasting color, but you can also use hardwood board, tile, or Corian.
With fewer distractions, your space will become a canvas for living.
Long popular in European interiors, a flush recessed baseboard has become a top choice for American architects and interior designers.

The painted MDF board insert is easy to repair and repaint if necessary. Use floor tile as a recessed baseboard in mudrooms, entryways, and bathrooms.
Use recessed LED baseboard lighting for entryways, hallways, or powder rooms. Flush baseboard molding with LED light inserts is a perfect fit for stairs.
Lighting plays a crucial role in interior design and the Dorsis Linus LED flush baseboard will add a touch of sophisticated lighting to your space. Intelligent lighting control can turn the flush baseboard into an LED orientation light so that you can find your way in dark hallways or staircases.
Linus can receive any 8, 10, or 12 mm LED strip. Choose any 12/24V, white or RGB color, high or low CRI, warm or cool LED you prefer. Your electrician will provide the power supply and wiring.
Connect your LED baseboard to a brightness-aware motion sensor and have your home automation system such as Loxone turn on the light when you walk into a dark hallway.
The Dorsis Linus aluminum baseboard housing can receive any insert material and you can easily scribe the baseboard to an uneven floor.
With a hardwood floor, you will leave a tiny gap between the bottom edge of the insert and the top of the hardwood floor to allow for contraction and expansion.
Tile floors don't expand or contract. With tile floors in bathrooms or mudrooms, you can use tile as your insert material and seal the gap between the floor and insert.

The Dorsis Linus Jamb Connector also works with our unique Dorsis Belport trimless sliding pocket door.
