Single & Double Bullnose Bricks
Single bullnose and double bullnose bricks are specifically designed to enhance both the protection and visual appeal of structures. These curved-edge bricks are commonly used on top of walls and around doorways, windows, or corners to soften edges and create a smooth, finished look. In addition to their aesthetic qualities, bullnose bricks provide added durability, protecting vulnerable areas from wear and tear while improving overall safety by reducing sharp edges.
Our Heritage Range of bullnose bricks offers a variety of options that blend seamlessly with traditional or period-style architecture. The single bullnose is ideal for capping walls or framing openings, while the double bullnose can be used to create rounded corners for a polished, continuous finish. These bricks are perfect for adding a refined detail to both residential and commercial projects, ensuring a balance between functionality and timeless design.
Whether you’re renovating an older building or designing a new structure, our bullnose bricks in the Heritage Range provide the perfect combination of style and protection. Their versatility allows them to complement a wide range of architectural styles, offering long-lasting quality and visual appeal for any construction or restoration project. Available in the following sizes: Metric 65mm x 215mm x 102mm and Imperial 75mm x 228mm x 108mm (3" x 9" x 4 1/4").
