HOW TO MEASURE
NOTE-DON’TUNDERESTIMATE. Itis always best to order a little extra.Remember that all wallcoverings, regardless of material, are made innumbered dye lot batches and there may be color variation from lot to lot.Make it easy and do not deduct for windowsand doors.It is better and cheaper tohave overage than to run short in the middle of an installation.
To obtainthe amount of wallcovering required, you need to determine the square footageof the surface you are covering.Measurethe length and height to determine wall area in square feet.
VINYL: Vinyldouble-rolls measure 11 yards by 20.5 inches, covering 56 square feet.Assume 2 single rolls for each 50 feetrequired.Example-300 square feetrequires 12 single rolls (six double roll bolts).
Surface Area to cover | Bolt coverage (11Y X 20.5 “) | Number of single rolls needed |
50 SQUARE FEET | 56 SQUARE FEET | 2 SINGLE ROLLS |
100 SQUARE FEET | 112 SQUARE FEET | 4 SINGLE ROLLS |
150 SQUARE FEET | 168 SQUARE FEET | 6 SINGLE ROLLS |
200 SQUARE FEET | 224 SQUARE FEET | 8 SINGLE ROLLS |
250 SQUARE FEET | 280 SQUARE FEET | 10 SINGLE ROLLS |
NOTE: ORDER 25 % MOREWALLCOVERING IF THE PATTERN HAS A REPEAT OR DROP AND ORDER SUFFICIENTWALLCOVERING BEFORE INSTALLATION TO RECEIVE MATCHING DYE LOTS
GRASSCLOTH:Grasscloth double-rolls measure 8 yards by 36 inches, covering 72 squarefeet.Assume 2 single rolls for each 70feet required.Example-300 Square feetrequires 10 single rolls.
Surface Area to cover | Bolt coverage (8Y x 36�) | Number of single rolls needed |
70 SQUARE FEET | 72 SQUARE FEET | 2 SINGLE ROLLS |
140 SQUARE FEET | 144 SQUARE FEET | 4 SINGLE ROLLS |
210 SQUARE FEET | 216 SQUARE FEET | 6 SINGLE ROLLS |
280 SQUARE FEET | 288 SQUARE FEET | 8 SINGLE ROLLS |
NOTE-REMEMBER TO ORDERSUFFICIENT WALLCOVERING BEFORE INSTALLATION TO INSURE YOU RECEIVE MATCHING DYE LOTS
BY THE YARDPRODUCT: To determine requirement for by the yard product, divide squarefootage requirement by 9.This willdetermine the number of yards required to order. Example-300 square feetrequires 34 yards of wallcovering.
Surface Area to cover | EACH YARD COVERS 9 SQ FEET | Number of yards to order |
135 SQUARE FEET | EACH YARD COVERS 9 SQ FEET | 15 YARDS |
170 SQUARE FEET | EACH YARD COVERS 9 SQ FEET | 19 YARDS |
250 SQUARE FEET | EACH YARD COVERS 9 SQ FEET | 28 YARDS |
300 SQUARE FEET | EACH YARD COVERS 9 SQ FEET | 34 YARDS |
