Crown Molding Samples
Also see:This page contains profile pictures and dimensions for various crown moldings. Use these to trim between ceiling and wall corners, as well as to build crown molding lighting or in combination with other molding pieces to build an elaborate crown molding profile.
These one–piece crown moldings are commonly available from a lumberyard or millwork and some will also be found at your local home store. These profiles can be also be reproduced by a millwork setup to cut custom moldings. All that is needed is to print the image from this page and provide it for them to copy.
Cove Crown Molding Profiles
This crown profile consists of a large cove in the main body and a large bead along the bottom. This molding can be found at a lumberyard or millwork but may not be available from home stores.
This profile consists of a reverse ogee and cove along the bottom. Another molding profile that will be hard to find at home stores.
This is a more common one–piece crown molding known as bed mould. This profile will usually be found at home stores as well as lumberyards.
Beaded Crown Molding Profiles
This molding consists of a large cove in the main body and a bead running along both top and bottom edges. This profile may be found at home stores but will almost certainly be at a lumberyard or millwork.
This crown profile is more rare and will probably only be found at a millwork, if at all. It can be copied from this image by a millwork setup to cut custom moldings or this profile can be recreated by stacking small pieces of molding like those in the custom crown molding project at this link.
This one–piece crown profile consists of several prominent features including a step and ovolo or quarter round at the top, a fillet and cove along the middle and an ogee and small cove along the bottom. Here again, this molding would only be found at a millwork or can be custom cut.
Embossed Crown Molding Profiles
This embossed crown molding is cut with and egg and dart pattern along the middle under a reverse ogee. The bottom is finished with a second, smaller reverse ogee. This molding may be found at a home store but will certainly be available from a lumberyard.
This embossed crown incorporates a dentil pattern and two reverse ogees cut all in one–piece of molding. Home stores will usually carry a design like this although it may only be available in a manufactured molding like polyurethane. This profile can also be built using a standard crown profile and adding the dentil and rake moldings along the bottom.
