Easily figure out how much and what to order or try our new Lynea Molding Calculator!
Lynea crown moldings are easy to order and are even easier to install.
In order to get started, you need to determine:
- Height of your ceiling
- Length of each wall
- Mitering or not mitering?
- Number and types of corners
- Relay blocks
Height of your ceiling
You want crown molding that is appropriate for the size of your room and ceiling height.
If you have a smaller room or lower ceiling (8 feet or lower) consider purchasing one of our 4" moldings.
Medium sized rooms or standard height ceilings (8 to 10 feet) should be adorned with our 6" moldings.
Anything higher should use our 8" moldings.
Length of each wall
Measure the length of each wall in the room that you want to apply crown to. Each piece of Lynea molding is 96" (8 feet) in length.
Mitering or not mitering?
One of the benefits of using Lynea crown molding is to utilize our pattern matching corner and relay blocks. This rids you of the mitering and splicing headache.
If you decide to take the hard way and make miter cuts, just order the appropriate lengths of molding to accommodate the size of your room.
Number and types of corners
Don't want the headache of mitering? Then you will need one block for each corner. There are two types of corners: inside and outside.
If you are standing at the center of a square room, each corner you see is an inside corner.
If there are corners that stick out of the wall, this is an outside corner.
Relay blocks/Corbels
Avoid the hassle of having to perfectly match up patterns and cut to ultra tight tolerances.
A relay block replaces any seams between two even pieces of molding. Insert one for each time a molding runs up to another molding. This makes it easy to measure, cut, and install every piece.
Lynea relay blocks are available in sizes that match your crown. But their width is uniformly 2".
Lynea – The Beauty of No Miter – is the only crown molding product dedicated to easy installation with miterless effort.
