Find answers to common questions about Luxe Architectural® real wood door and wall moulding kits, including installation, measuring, ordering, shipping, finishes, removable options, and the Brooklyn Collection. All of our moulding kits are handcrafted in the USA, arrive fully assembled, and feature our patent-pending self-adhering installation system.
ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS
Are Luxe Architectural moulding kits made from real wood?
Yes — every Luxe Architectural moulding kit is made from real wood, the same quality moulding a professional carpenter uses. We never use foam, PVC, MDF, or composite materials. Our kits are available in two wood options: factory-primed Pine (our DIY/Primed and Finished/Primed finish) and premium hardwood Poplar (our Stain Grade finish), which accepts both paint, milk paint and medium-to-dark stain.
Who makes your moulding kits?
Every kit is handcrafted in the USA by our finish carpenters at our facility in the Los Angeles area. Miters are glued and secured with V-nails — no visible nail holes, no patching required. Each frame arrives fully assembled and hand-sanded, with our patent-pending self-adhesive feature.
What makes Luxe Architectural different from other peel-and-stick moulding?
Most peel-and-stick moulding products are made from foam, PVC, plastic, or individual trim pieces that require cutting and assembly. Even products with pre-cut corners can leave visible gaps where the mitered joints meet. Luxe Architectural® moulding kits are made from real wood, handcrafted in the USA by finish carpenters, and arrive as fully assembled frames ready to install. Our patent-pending self-adhering feature eliminates the need for nails, glue, or power tools while delivering the look and feel of custom millwork.
What is your patent-pending self-adhering feature?
Our moulding kits arrive with a specially formulated adhesive pre-applied to the back of each frame. Simply peel the protective backing, position the frame on your door or wall, and press firmly into place. For a permanent, seamless finish, caulk around all edges with latex painter's caulk and paint the entire surface. For a removable application, our Removable & Reusable Moulding® collection uses a repositionable adhesive designed to release cleanly from properly prepared walls.
What types of moulding kits do you offer?
We offer two primary product categories:
Within each category, we offer permanent and Removable & Reusable options. Our Curated Brooklyn Collection offers pre-proportioned wall moulding kits organized by wall width, eliminating layout guesswork.
Can renters use your moulding kits?
Yes. Our Removable & Reusable Moulding® collection is specifically designed for renters, temporary installations, and anyone who wants beautiful architectural detail without permanent changes. The repositionable adhesive holds securely during use and releases cleanly from properly prepared and painted walls. For optimal removal with minimal wall impact, walls should befree of any cracks, properly primed, and painted with a quality paint.
What surfaces do your kits work on?
Our moulding kits work on smooth walls and walls with light-to-medium texture. They adhere to painted drywall, plaster, wood, and metal surfaces. For heavily textured walls, they must be permanently caulked in place and may need additional holding power of painters tape or similar while the caulk is drying. For exterior use, we recommend our Premium Poplar option with exterior-grade caulk and paint, specific to your climate.
Do I need any tools, nails, or carpentry experience to install?
No. Installation requires no power tools, no nails, no glue, and no carpentry experience. The process is: Peel the adhesive backing → Place the frame on your wall or door → Press firmly along all edges → Caulk for a permanent, seamless finish. Step-by-step instructions and a measurement worksheet are included with every kit.
Can I install moulding kits on textured walls?
Yes. Luxe Architectural® moulding kits work on smooth walls and walls with light-to-medium texture. For heavily textured walls, we recommend a permanent installation using caulk. Depending on the texture, temporary painter's tape or similar may be needed while the caulk dries. If you're unsure whether your wall texture is suitable, contact our team and we'll be happy to review photos of your space and provide guidance.
Can your mouldings be painted or stained?
Yes. Our DIY/Primed and Finished/Primed kits arrive factory-primed and ready to paint any color. Our Stain Grade/Primer Ready Premium Poplar kits accept both paint and medium-to-dark wood stain, and are ideal for those who want a natural wood finish. See our Staining & Painting section below for product recommendations.
How do I choose the right moulding kit for my space?
The best moulding kit depends on your wall width, ceiling height, architectural style, and whether you want a permanent or removable installation. For simplified selection, our Brooklyn Collection allows you to shop by wall width. For door moulding kits, each product page includes recommended sizing based on door width. If you need additional guidance, our team is happy to recommend a layout, and our Luxe Design Service can create a custom plan tailored to your space.
GENERAL
Can I order custom sizes?
Yes, we make custom sizes. Email CustomerCare@LuxeArchitectural.com with your requested sizes, quantities, finish option, and ship-to zip code, and we will provide a quote within 1–3 business days. For larger frames — approximately48" x 54" — shipping can range from $200–$300 depending on quantity and destination. Local pick-up is available for customers in the Los Angeles area.
Can your products be used on exterior and metal doors?
Yes. Our pre-applied adhesive works on metal doors without the need for nails. For exterior applications, we recommend our Premium Poplar mouldings. Caulk all edges with a high-quality exterior caulk — such as Alex Plus Paintable Latex Caulk by DAP — and finish with a quality exterior primer and paint. Alternatively, mouldings can be primed first, then applied to the door, caulked and then painted. As with any wood product exposed to the elements, exterior installations will require periodic maintenance over time.
Do you offer a trade program for designers, contractors, and property managers?
Yes. Our Trade Account program offers a 15% discount on orders of $1,500 or more. We work with interior designers, general contractors, property managers, home builders, and home staging companies. To apply, visit our Trade Account page or call us at 800-490-LUXE (5893).

BROOKLYN COLLECTION — ORDER BY WALL WIDTH
Which Brooklyn wall moulding kit fits my wall width?
Each Brooklyn kit is designed for a specific wall width range. The Brooklyn Signature Six Piece Wall Moulding Kit is proportioned for walls 5'–12' wide. The Brooklyn Reserve Ten Piece Wall Moulding Kit is designed for walls 11'–17' wide. The Brooklyn Estate Ten Piece Wall Moulding Kit covers walls 14'–21' wide. Measure your wall width and select the corresponding kit. If your wall falls between ranges, we recommend the smaller kit to allow for proper panel spacing.
What is the difference between the Brooklyn Signature, Reserve, and Estate?
All three are curated Brooklyn layouts — fully assembled, real wood, peel-and-stick wall moulding kits handcrafted in the USA — each designed for a specific wall width range. The Signature (5'–12' walls) features three sets of panels in a narrow-wide-narrow arrangement. The Reserve (11'–17' walls) expands to five sets of panels with a wider center and four narrower flanking panels. The Estate (14'–21' walls) features an alternating rhythm of three larger panel sets separated by two narrower accent panels. Each layout is proportioned specifically for its wall width range for balanced, architecturally correct results.
How do I choose between the Reserve and Estate for my wall?
Both kits are available for walls in the 14'–17' wide range, giving you a choice between two distinct design directions. The Reserve delivers a classic symmetrical look with one dominant center panel. The Estate delivers a bolder alternating rhythm with three larger panels across the wall. The right choice comes down to the architectural feel you want — both are real wood, fully assembled peel-and-stick wall moulding kits that install without power tools.
How is the Brooklyn collection different from the Classic series?
The Brooklyn collection features taller panel proportions — a 54" top moulding frame and 30" bottom frame — creating dramatic vertical presence and a bold, contemporary architectural feel. The Classic series features our signature middle moulding detail for a more traditional picture frame wall moulding look with additional layering. Both collections are premium real wood, self-adhering wall moulding kits handcrafted in the USA — they simply deliver a different architectural character. Brooklyn reads bold and contemporary; Classic reads refined and traditional.
Do the Brooklyn kits work on 10' ceilings?
The Brooklyn collection is designed for 8' ceilings without crown moulding, and 9' ceilings with or without crown moulding. For 10' ceilings, we recommend our Classic Tall Wall Moulding Kits, which are specifically proportioned for taller wall heights. Contact our team and we'll help you find the right fit.
Can I panel a full room with Brooklyn kits?
Yes. Brooklyn wall moulding kits are designed for both accent walls and full room installations. Each kit covers one wall section, so you would select the appropriate kit and wall width range for each wall individually. When paneling a full room, the goal is for the vertical spacing to be the same on all four walls. For straightforward layouts, our team is happy to guide you. For more complex rooms — multiple walls, architectural features, or custom configurations — our Luxe Design Service creates a tailored plan for your space.
Is the Brooklyn collection available in a removable option?
Yes. Removable & Reusable versions of select Brooklyn wall moulding kits are available for renters and temporary installations. These are designed to release cleanly from properly prepared and painted walls that do not have any preexisting cracks or damage. Browse our Removable & Reusable collection or contact our team for guidance on which option is right for your space.
How many pieces come in each Brooklyn kit?
The Brooklyn Signature includes six fully assembled real wood moulding frames. The Brooklyn Reserve and Brooklyn Estate each include ten fully assembled real wood moulding frames. We also have Brooklyn Two Piece kits available. All pieces arrive fully assembled and ready to install — no cutting, no power tools, no carpentry experience required.
INSTALLATION
How do I prepare my wall or door before installation?
For existing painted surfaces: Clean the surface with rubbing alcohol or glass cleaner and a lint-free cloth to remove dust and debris. Allow to dry completely before installing. This step is critical for proper adhesion.
For newly primed or painted surfaces: Allow primer or paint to cure fully for a minimum of 48–72 hours depending on ambient humidity. Do not clean newly painted surfaces with rubbing alcohol or glass cleaner — the adhesive will bond well to fully cured paint without it.
How do I achieve a permanent, seamless finish?
Once your moulding frames are installed, apply a small bead of latex painter's caulk — such as Alex Plus All Purpose 40-Year Caulk by DAP — along all inside and outside edges. Allow the caulk to dry per manufacturer's instructions, then paint the entire wall or door and moulding together for a professional, built-in result. The caulk line is what eliminates any visible seam between the moulding and the wall. Alternatively, mouldings can be painted first, then installed and caulked with a matching caulk or clear caulk. For caulking tips, please see our How-To Videos on our website.
How do I remove Removable & Reusable mouldings without damaging my walls?
Clean walls and allow to dry fully for at least one hour before installation. When it's time to remove, go slowly — you will hear the adhesive releasing with a crackling sound. Once one small area releases, work gradually along the frame. Do not pull quickly or at a sharp angle. If any minor damage occurs, it can be patched with a spackling paste such as DryDex® Dry Time Indicator Spackling by DAP. For a video walkthrough, visit our How-To Videos page. Clean removal depends on the condition of the wall —newer dry wall with a quality paint job yields the best results. Older dry wall from the 1960s–1970s may be more vulnerable and should be treated with extra care.
What if my walls aren't perfectly level?
Minor gaps between the moulding and the wall can occur in older homes or apartments where walls are not perfectly level. For permanent installations, caulking around all edges will fill any gaps and create a seamless finish. For removable installations, we recommend using a long level or straight edge against your wall before purchasing to assess whether this may be a concern.
Do you have installation videos?
Yes. Step-by-step installation videos for both door and wall moulding kits are available on our How-To Videos page at luxe-architectural.com/pages/how-to-videos.
STAINING & PAINTING — STAIN GRADE PREMIUM HARDWOOD POPLAR
What stains do you recommend for Premium Poplar mouldings?
We recommend Old Masters Wipe-On Stain Gel and General Finishes Water-Based Wood Stain, both available online and at most paint supply stores. After stain has fully dried, lightly sand with 300–400 grit sandpaper or steel wool if desired, remove dust with a painter's tack cloth, and apply a clear coat. A second coat may be needed for full coverage. Please see manufactures recommendations for application and sealing.
What primers and paints do you recommend for Poplar mouldings?
Prime with a quality primer — we recommend Kilz brand, available in oil-based and water-based formulas. After the primer has dried completely, lightly sand with fine-grit sandpaper or a sanding block such as the 3M Pro Grade Sanding Block Sponge, remove dust with a painter's tack cloth, and apply your paint of choice.
Call us at 800-490-LUXE (5893) or email CustomerCare@LuxeArchitectural.com. We're happy to help you find the right kit for your space.
