What Is Chair Rail Moulding?

Chair rail moulding is a decorative horizontal trim installed around the perimeter of a room, typically 32 to 36 inches above the floor — about one-third of the way up a standard 8-foot wall. Originally used to protect plaster walls from damage caused by chair backs, today it’s commonly used to create a finished transition between wall treatments or as the horizontal element between upper and lower wall moulding.

Chair rail is frequently used with:
