Toppers
We can manufacture many styles. Download our “Toppers Quick Reference” for other ideas and styles here.
General Information
- Toppers are board mounted
- Some topper styles can wrap around the returns
- Use end caps to cover return ends of the board for outside mounted. See ADD-ON section.
- If a lining is not specified, we will use our white stock poly-cotton sateen
- State if topper is inside, wall to wall or outside mounted
- All Topper styles can be made to fit corner and bay windows; surcharges apply
Features
- Color matched thread is used
- Workroom deduction for inside or wall to wall mount is 1/2” for the width, or 1” if returns are corded
- Bottom hems may be constructed in a variety of ways, depending on the style. If Hem is exposed 2” Double Hem is used
- Unlined side hems are 1-1/2” double- turned, and blind stitched
- Lined side hems are pillow cased or 1-1/2 double turned, depending on the style
- Seams are either hidden in pleats or balanced on each side depending on treatment
- Weighted bottom bar will be used on some of the treatment styles
- Board and top of dust cap are covered in white lining, if topper is visible from above, a Covered dust cap is recommended. Please specify on workorder
- Return sizes are made to lumber sizes (3.5”, 5.5”, 7.125”, 9.25”). Custom sizes available sur-charges apply. Clearly state the exact size of the return.
- Toppers are packaged in plastic for delivery, shipping, or installation
Pricing
- Toppers are priced per linear foot. Linear foot pricing includes face width (Rod Width) plus both returns
- 4-foot minimum
- How to find linear foot: Face width of board + both returns ÷ 12, round up = number of linear feet and also is the billable footage. Example: 84 + 4+4 = 92, ÷ 12 = 7.66, round up to 8 billable feet for labor
- ADD-ONS such as welt, banding, buttons, contrast insets, fringe, and Etc. are billed separately
