What is Wainscoting
Some of the most popular molding treatments through the years have been based on wainscoting. That term covers a
wide variety of materials and moldings that you can combine in frames and panels to create a decorative treatment
for the lower portion of a wall.
There are some classic arrangements, such as narrow tongue-arid-groove boards that are set vertically. You can run wainscots up to chair
rail height or higher and cap them with a thin strip of trim or a wide shelf. The wainscoting treatment is extremely versatile, so you
may see it in country cottages or city townhouses. You also can combine the treatment with short walls, pillars, and
pilasters at openings to define main entrances and passageways.
You can run bead-board wainscoting between a baseboard and a top nosing or shelf without
any other elements. At the other end of the spectrum is the kind of complete wainscoting system.
