Look no further for the picture-perfect way to spruce up any wall, ceiling, or door in your house - moulding. The graceful curves, refined lines, and polished wood add luxurious details to any space. A room without moulding is a room unfinished. Enjoy the finer experiences of life by adding this framework.
Understanding the types and materials is imperative when looking for the proper moulding to bolster appeal. After reading this comprehensive list, visit Dain’s Lumber for professional installation.
Types of Moulding
Chair Rail
The chair rail sits just under the middle distinction of your wall, roughly three to four feet up from the floor. The horizontal piece of wood was named after its original purpose: to protect the walls from chair backs. Today, with bigger rooms and differing styles, the trim mainly acts as an ornament to the room. Chair rails are typically seen in dining rooms or any space where chairs sit close to the walls.
Baseboards
Baseboards are the perfect introduction to essential trim as the most common type of moulding found in homes. They range from narrow to wide, with the 6-inch baseboard regularly displayed in many old houses. Baseboard trims act as defining lines and hide gaps between the floor and wall. These can be installed anywhere and are great for design continuity.
Crown Moulding
Maybe the most recognizable moulding for its name and look, crown moulding is placed where the wall meets the ceiling. The moulding is placed at a 45-degree angle, perfect for hiding any imperfections at the top of your walls. Mainly living and dining rooms are the home to crown mouldings, though any room can sport the aesthetic. This seems to be the favorite of kings and queens, as the crown moulding adorns many palaces worldwide.
