Tapered Shims

Wedge these angled shims into gaps to quickly level cabinets, doors, and windows without stacking multiple flat shims.

Plastic

These shims won't degrade when exposed to moisture or chemicals. They're also naturally mold and rot resistant. All are ribbed to grip surfaces and keep these shims from sliding, while also facilitating small adjustments. Trim any excess with a utility knife to get the length you need.

Flexible—These shims conform to uneven surfaces but are not as precise as rigid shims. They're also easier to trim.

Rigid—These durable shims maintain their shape, so they're more precise than flexible shims.
