In a room with a 10 foot high ceiling the chair rail.
Wallpaper border chair rail height.
Consider how different chair rail heights look next to those features.
All the moisture to soak into the paper border for 5 minutes before measuring the height of the border from top to bottom.
The ornate chair rail with a thickness dimension at eye level height would add a surprising and dramatic design element to the room.
Plan your starting point so that if there is a mismatched seam it ll fall in an inconspicuous place.
For me a good rule of thumb is to install chair rail molding at 25 of the height of the room.
If you re going to be hanging a border as a chair rail use a level and draw a light pencil line around the room at the right height.
Window trim fireplaces and existing wall molding can also impact the height.
Using the width of the border as a guide prime the wall or surface area where you plan to install the border.
Lower is always better than higher.
This would look like a typical wallpaper border in order to bring detail with a new and updated form.
About 28 to 32 inches is an optimum range for chair rail height says hull.
Hull cautions that most people install chair rails too high on their walls.
For example if the room already has wallpaper on the lower half with a wallpaper border currently defining the edge it s easiest to install the chair rail where the wallpaper currently stops.
