  • This is a entry hall we improved with paneled walls and deeper moldings. It really makes a big difference and improves the space. Let me know if you agree.

    I'm sure I've mentioned this before. But i grew up in very rural midwest. We lived in an old 2 story farmhouse that in my opinion, was just gorgeous. Considering at the time it was built, there wasn't any indoor plumbing (had a double seater outhouse lol) my parents turned it into a garden tool shed after they got the plumbing put in.
    But anyway, this old house is what has spoiled me on craftsmanship. No plumbing, but had 2 walk in pantries, build in China cabinet in the dining room, had a front parlor with sliding pocket doors, gorgeous wood staircase and the moldings were just big and spectacular.
    I absolutely loved that old house. Fantastic memories growing up there. Even if during the winter we about froze lol. The wind could literally blow through around the windows and walls strong enough to blow out candles. Blizzards and coal heating wasn't the best. But the memories i wouldn't trade for anything.

    Anyone doing a restoration job on a residence should see this video. I own a custom millwork shop specializing in duplicating historic mouldings, flooring, doors and architectural elements and always get a great deal of satisfaction when the client selects the “better” profile for what they are trying to achieve. Great job.

    I built a smaller home last year 2100sqft. 10’ ceilings 7’ tall doors with transom windows which netted me an 8’ door height.
    I used a 4 1/4” w x 1 1/2” deep casing build up. The difference it made is unreal. I’ve told a few people, and their response is “Oh, you like the chunky look.” However it doesn’t come off as chunky, it actually has the opposite effect, where when you’re in the space, everything is elevated and more elegant to look at, without being overkill.

    • @BrentHull

      Not that I know of, I fall back on historic precedent. I think at least 3/4" -1" if you look at Georgian paneling.

    @Brent could you speak about the balance between having panel moldings above the chair rail, and providing space for a client with a lot of artwork to ensure that they have space for it be properly placed, not only for now but also allowing for it to be changed/rotated around the house over time? It's a big concern when there are already only so many walls to work with, even when doing a gallery hang. Thanks, I really enjoy your videos and learn so much!

    Interesting. I like seeing the drawings and alternate proposals. Also the logic of the crown. Going all the way back to the panel, it looks like more than the 1 3/4" for the door casing. For comparison--typically we'd place the door casing over the drywall--but if we did that, everything in the paneling would only come to less than 1 3/4" deep...I'd like to see a section of the whole door jamb and panel from the stud. It seems more built up than you describe when considering all layers.

    • @BrentHull
      @BrentHull  6 місяців тому +1

      hmm, now that you bring that up, you may be right. I think we did increase the size to catch the chair rail depth. Good eye. I suspect we are actually out 2+ inches.

    Amazing details, as always. Not sure if it's been addressed already, but was wondering what/ if any "fill" material is used for the "void" in the panelling? I think I've seen @finishcarpentrytv use mdf, and the existing wall material (drywall) for the rectangles. Just wondering what you'd recommend, whether to use the existing wall, mdf/plywood panels or some other material? Especially in this case where the walls already have wall paper on them.
    Thanks for amazing details, and better building.

    Great video! Windsor One offers outstanding moulding products, but I have not seen any arch applications. From a DIY perspective, what are your thoughts on approaches if someone wanted to install arch moulding themselves? Are there reliable vendors/manufacturers that offer a quality turnkey solution?

    • @BrentHull
      @BrentHull  6 місяців тому

      Yes, you'll be reaching out to a custom mill shop. They should be able to recreate curved trim to your needs. Good luck.

    Ever since watching your videos, I can't stand the moldings in 99% of houses.

    I lost the sense of drama when you showed the very flat, head-on photo of the finished archway. Your oblique shot of the panel/baseboard/casing showed just how dramatic proper lighting on the installation can be. That didn't come through in the wider-aspect shots.
