Crown Molding

The Finishing Touch That Defines the Room

Crown molding is the transition between wall and ceiling — and in a room with great bones, it's the detail that makes those bones undeniable. Our solid wood crown profiles range from spare cove to full classical cornice.

Installation Guide

What to Know Before You Install

01

Measure the Room

Calculate perimeter in linear feet, adding 15% for waste at corners. We supply cut lists on request.

02

Acclimate the Wood

Store unfinished molding in the installation space for 3–5 days before cutting. This prevents shrinkage after installation.

03

Cope or Miter?

Coped joints are more durable than miters at inside corners — they won't open as wood moves seasonally. We always recommend coping for paint-grade work.

04

Nail into Studs

Crown is nailed to both wall plates and ceiling joists. Never rely on adhesive alone — it will fail as the wood moves.
