MEASUREMENT AND
TEMPLATE INSTRUCTIONS
The accurate taking of
measurements and/or making
of templates on your part
will help guarantee a
perfect fit for the radius
trim.
The radius trim for most
half round, full round and
brow top windows and some
quarter round windows can be
made from dimensions.
Measurements should
be taken accurately to the
nearest 1/16”.
For
measurement instructions
please click here.
The radius trim for
elliptical, oval and other
unique shaped windows will
always require a template.
For
template instructions please
click here.
For crowns, bases and other
specialties, if the wall
radius is known and is
constant, the trim can be
made from dimensions.
Clearly indicate what
the dimensions represent.
If the wall radius is
not known or if the curve is
irregular, a template is
required.
Indicate clearly what
the template is showing,
which way is up, and which
way the profile is to point.
Concave – Profile points
into curve
Convex – Profile
points out of curve
Again, the more accurate the
measurements and/or
templates, the more exact
the fit will be.
Each template not conforming
to the “Template
Instructions” will be
subject to a $20.00 template
charge.
Examples of non-conforming
templates include, but are
not limited to:
-
Short cuts with large
spaces in between
-
On material other than
brown craft paper or red
rosin paper (i.e.,
plastic, tar paper)
-
Drawn on or cut from
cardboard, plywood, etc.
-
An existing casing (we
accept a tracing of the
inside edge of a casing
on paper
– make sure
existing casing fits
first!)
-
Any template that is not
the inside of the jamb
or the inside of the
casing
-
Any template requiring a
negative reveal
-
Any template of a rough
opening (we accept R.O.
measurements for brow
and half-round openings)
-
Any template stating,
for example, “extend
this end 12”.”
Architectural Accents will
not guarantee the fit of any
trim or jamb made from
non-conforming templates.
Remember, we assume the side
written on is the front and
make the casing face up.
If this is not the
case, clearly indicate which
side is to be the face.
Architectural Accents will
inform you before proceeding
if the template does not
conform to our standards.
