Verified from FlooringFX TrafficMaster colors (page 539), locking-systems Uniclic callout, dye-lots notes, discontinued flooring index, Find discontinued TrafficMaster hub, and closed Match SUCCESS listing Dimensions African Chestnut Uniclic (76248) · no invented SKUs · last updated 2026-10-28
TrafficMaster Dimensions African Chestnut Uniclic is a discontinued Home Depot private-label laminate identified on FlooringFX by dual Match marks 8436004228287 / 281-454. FlooringFX sources treat Uniclic as part of the public pattern name on the closed Match SUCCESS listing — a same-color leftover without that locking profile will not seat. Confirm the TrafficMaster brand strip plus both marks on the carton end before treating any “African Chestnut,” “Dimensions,” or “Uniclic chestnut” leftover as a match.
This page is a citeable ID hub for leftover matching. It does not list live inventory. Photograph the carton end and match brand strip + both model strings before buying or posting a Match listing. Closed Match board proof: Dimensions African Chestnut Uniclic NEED (closed SUCCESS). Locking context: locking systems and leftover discontinued flooring.

Identification
| Field | Verified value |
|---|---|
| Common name | Dimensions African Chestnut Uniclic (TrafficMaster laminate) |
| Brand / line | TrafficMaster Dimensions laminate (Home Depot private-label). Not Allure Ultra, GripStrip, LifeProof, Pergo, Style Selections, warehouse-club Harmonics, or color-only “African Chestnut” leftovers without the Dimensions / Uniclic marks. |
| Model / SKU marks | 8436004228287 / 281-454 (both published on FlooringFX TrafficMaster colors + closed Match listing 294). Confirm both strings on your carton. |
| Short Internet / store SKU | No separate Home Depot Internet # or store SKU published on FlooringFX for this Dimensions color beyond the two marks above — do not invent one. Do not treat ZIP or Match area fields (for example 76248) as model numbers. |
| Locking | Uniclic — treated as part of the public pattern name on the closed Match SUCCESS listing and FlooringFX locking-systems / dye-lots callouts. A same-color leftover with a different click profile will not seat. |
| Look / install | Published plank thickness, width, length, and coverage are scarce on FlooringFX sources for this Dimensions color. Measure an existing plank and photograph the tongue / groove before buying leftovers. |
| Status | Discontinued Dimensions line; exact drop year unclear (FlooringFX index). Citeable Match board proof only: closed NEED for 3 boxes (area 76248). Not a restock promise. |
| Collision traps | Color-only “African Chestnut” leftovers without TrafficMaster + Dimensions + Uniclic + both marks. Harmonics / warehouse “chestnut” names (different brand strip). Generic click laminate or vinyl click that is not the documented Uniclic geometry. See name collisions and locking systems. |
| Dye lots | Same marks / color words can still sit wrong next to an installed field if lots diverge. See dye lots / batch codes. |
| Neighbor Guides | Hampton Honey Oak UPC 765894165180 · Lakeshore Pecan 35947 · Saratoga Hickory 34089 · Baytown Oak HL704 (TM laminate era; different IDs / visuals / locking notes) |
How to ID Dimensions African Chestnut on a carton
- Read the brand strip: it should say TrafficMaster (Home Depot laminate), not LifeProof, Pergo, Harmonics, Style Selections, Allure Ultra, or GripStrip.
- Match the pattern name Dimensions African Chestnut (Uniclic locking called out on the public Match listing) and both marks
8436004228287/281-454. Do not invent a short Internet or store SKU. Do not treat a Match ZIP / area field as a model number. - Confirm the locking profile is Uniclic (or the carton explicitly names Uniclic). Reject generic “click laminate,” other-brand Uniclic-style copies, and vinyl click that will not seat into the documented geometry.
- When published plank specs are missing, measure width, length, and thickness of a loose plank and photograph the tongue and groove before paying for leftovers.
- Photograph the full carton end in daylight (brand strip, Dimensions / African Chestnut wording, both marks, Uniclic callout if printed, lot) before you buy leftovers or post a Match listing. Shot list: photograph the carton for Match.

What will not match
- Color-only “African Chestnut” leftovers that lack TrafficMaster + Dimensions + Uniclic + marks
8436004228287/281-454. - Generic “click laminate,” other-brand Uniclic-style copies, or vinyl click that is not the documented Uniclic geometry (FlooringFX locking-systems callout).
- TrafficMaster Allure Ultra solid vinyl click, GripStrip adhesive Allure, and LifeProof rigid-core vinyl — different constructions even when wood-look words overlap.
- Warehouse-club Harmonics / Costco cartons that only look similar in a photo (including Harmonics chestnut-named colors). If the strip says Harmonics, use the Costco / Harmonics reference instead of a Dimensions search.
- Neighboring TM laminates with different IDs, such as Hampton Honey Oak UPC 765894165180, Lakeshore Pecan 35947, Saratoga Hickory 34089, or Baytown Oak HL704.
- Any “close enough” click plank with a different brand strip, model marks, thickness including pad, or locking profile. Dye-lot agreement does not override those mismatches. See locking systems and dye lots / batch codes.
