Installing Panel Molding

Installing wall panels is a great way to breathe life into an ordinary room; wall panels give an extremely refined look to the interior. Delivering a stronger design statement than paint or wall paper, wall panels divide the wall into attractive, precise sections that look like a series of picture frames. Wall panels are constructed by using panel moldings, which are specifically designed for wall panel creation.

Typically, wall panels are installed on the upper part of the wall or below the chair rail molding. Once mounted to a single colored wall, panel moldings create a pattern of trim work. Wall panels may also create more complex patterns, with the trim work enclosing a section of wall that is painted a different accent color to the main wall color. This creates an illusion; the wall panel seems to be carved directly from the wall.

Over the years, wainscoting has becomes one of the most popular wall treatments. Wainscoting is a wall treatment that incorporates chair rail moldings, panel moldings, and decorative molding corners to form frames and wall panels. Wainscoting is a beautiful decorative treatment commonly used for the lower part of the wall. Designers often refer to the ceiling as "the fourth wall".

The ceiling is often an afterthought for many homeowners; it is often considered uncharted territory. However, there is no better place to apply panel molding than the ceiling, especially when panel molding is applied to the walls.

Creating a Polished Look

You can create a polished look with ceiling panels, complimented by ornate corner moldings where they meet in the corners of the ceiling panels. On the walls, the same motifs may be used to create the wall panels, but it is recommended that less ornate corner moldings are used as to avoid an overpowering look.

Creating wall panels with panel moldings is an easy way to transform a typically unadorned space into an example of interesting architectural detail. By incorporating the elegance of wall panels into your home, you create a warm and inviting room. However, just as with any home design project, there are guidelines to be observed.

Design Tip: If you are installing wall panels both above and below the chair rail molding, you must take care to measure the widths of the wall panels so that the "set" (the wall panel directly above the chair rail, and directly below) precisely line up to create a professional, uniform look.
