Make a striking statement with TrueGrain™ Night Rider, a rich charcoal-toned black fiber cement siding finish that delivers modern edge and timeless depth. Designed to emulate the look of dark-stained wood, Night Rider offers bold contrast and refined texture—perfect for contemporary and high-contrast designs.
Night Rider blends the sleek elegance of matte black with the warmth and texture of natural wood grain. The result is a distinctive siding finish that enhances architectural features, frames windows and trim with contrast, and anchors lighter design elements with a sense of grounded sophistication.
Bold Design Impact: The deep charcoal-black tone brings drama and dimension to both traditional and modern facades.
Durable Performance: Engineered with James Hardie™ fibre cement, it resists warping, rotting, fading, and fire.
Wood-Inspired Texture: Subtle grain patterns offer a refined, organic look—without the maintenance of stained wood.
Versatile Application: Available in multiple profiles including lap, panel, trim, and soffit for cohesive exterior design.
Black siding is a popular choice for bold exteriors—but natural wood in this tone often requires frequent upkeep. TrueGrain™ Night Rider delivers the dramatic look in a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution. The finish retains its rich hue and detailed texture, even in extreme climates.
