HOW TO MEASURE NOTE-DON’T UNDERESTIMATE. It is always best to order a little extra. Remember that all wallcoverings, regardless of material, are made in numbered dye lot batches and there may be color variation from lot to lot. Make it easy and do not deduct for windows and doors. It is better and cheaper to have overage than to run short in the middle of an installation. To obtain the amount of wallcovering required, you need to determine the square footage of the surface you are covering. Measure the length and height to determine wall area in square feet. VINYL: Vinyl double-rolls measure 11 yards by 20.5 inches, covering 56 square feet. Assume 2 single rolls for each 50 feet required. Example-300 square feet requires 12 single rolls (six double roll bolts).
NOTE: ORDER 25 % MORE WALLCOVERING IF THE PATTERN HAS A REPEAT OR DROP AND ORDER SUFFICIENT WALLCOVERING BEFORE INSTALLATION TO RECEIVE MATCHING DYE LOTS GRASSCLOTH: Grasscloth double-rolls measure 8 yards by 36 inches, covering 72 square feet. Assume 2 single rolls for each 70 feet required. Example-300 Square feet requires 10 single rolls.
NOTE-REMEMBER TO ORDER SUFFICIENT WALLCOVERING BEFORE INSTALLATION TO INSURE YOU RECEIVE MATCHING DYE LOTS
BY THE YARD PRODUCT: To determine requirement for by the yard product, divide square footage requirement by 9. This will determine the number of yards required to order. Example-300 square feet requires 34 yards of wallcovering.
NOTE: ORDER 25 % MORE WALLCOVERING IF THE PATTERN HAS A REPEAT OR DROP AND ORDER SUFFICIENT WALLCOVERING BEFORE INSTALLATION TO RECEIVE MATCHING DYE LOT |
