The right moulding profile completes the room.

Skirting, architraves, dado rails and ceiling details establish the architectural language of an interior. Off-the-shelf profiles rarely match what the building needs.

Farrar can manufacture mouldings to match existing period profiles or develop new sections around the proportions, ceiling height and intended character of the space. All mouldings are made to measure in the West Yorkshire workshop.

Traditional interior detailing in a period property
Design principle

Moulding profiles should respond to the proportions and period of the room.

Select the right profile for the project.

Moulding type, timber, finish and dimensions should be considered together with the architectural context.

01

Skirting and architraves

Heights, depths and profile shapes can be developed around the room proportions and existing details.

02

Dado and picture rails

Horizontal mouldings can be introduced or matched to establish period character or define wall zones.

03

Bespoke profiles

Existing mouldings can be replicated from a sample, or new profiles developed around the intended design.

04

Timber and finish

Hardwood or softwood options with factory-applied finishes available for a consistent, ready-to-fit result.

Precision manufacturing for a clean, lasting fit.

Mouldings are manufactured to exact dimensions so they arrive ready for fitting without site adjustments.

Profiles developed around the building.

Whether matching an existing period profile or developing something new, the moulding section is considered alongside the room proportions and surrounding joinery.
