Dado & Picture Rails

Small details make a big impact on home decor, and dado rails are a prime example. Along with their practical functionality, dado rails provide an aesthetic upgrade to any room. Originating from vintage trends, dado rails are making a revival in modern interiors. These rails, also known as chair rails, accompany wall panelling to furnish homes with elegance. Dado rails are ideally installed 3 feet above the skirting board to prevent walls from furniture damage. They are also commonly used in stairs and hallways to prevent scuffs and tearing of panelling.

In contrast, picture rails are vintage-style mouldings fixed at the top of a wall or a few feet down from the ceiling. Designed to hold hooks or pictures using a cord or chain, picture rails eliminate the need for drilling holes in walls and wallpaper, while allowing you to enhance your room's interior by displaying art or pictures.
