Finished Ends
Double lines or ticks on
the edges indicate
finished laminate ends.
The front of the
countertop is
considered finished
unless otherwise noted. The sketch at the right shows one countertop with a finished left end, right end, and front.
Backsplashes
Parallel lines, along the
edges, indicate
backsplashes.
Backsplashes may be
ordered with multiple
configurations: loose,
attached, or either with a
scribe strip. The sketch at right shows a countertop with a laminate finished front edge and right end, a backsplash along the back wall, and an end splash along the left side wall.
Glossary of Symbols
Radius Corners
Radius corners should be drawn out with an “R” and associated measurement to indicate that it is a radius corner and the size desired. The sketch at right shows a countertop
with a laminate
finished front and
right side, a back
splash along the
back wall, an end
splash along the left side, and a radius corner of 3 inches at the right front corner.
Base End Runs
Base end runs are easier and more accurate if you supply us with the cabinet specifications, and we figure out the angle of the cuts.
Double Pads
Wood Edges
Wood Edges should 1. be denoted with the letter “W”. Write “W”
for wood and specify
Double Pad
6”
A dotted line with
“double pad”
printed above it
indicates double
padding should
be applied to the
bottom of the
countertop. You must include the dimension of the desired double pad width. Double padding is typically required when a countertop overhangs a cabinet. The sketch at right shows a countertop with a laminate finished front and sides, two 3” radius corners at the front, and double padding 6” deep from the front edge.
