From Start to Finish - ArchwaysAndCeilings.com is there!
1st - I listened! From here I worked with our in-house designer that took his vision and created a 3D CAD that gave him a visual representation of his vision. Once he was able to see his vision, he was amazed at the result and advised us to move forward with production. He was also surprised at how affordable it was.
2nd - We instructed him how to prepare for the product. We gave him framing guidelines for each ceiling and archway treatment so that when the product arrived it was "install ready".
3rd - When he received the product, each ceiling treatment had its own detailed instructions. Depending on the design, the instructions came with a step by step instruction sheet and/or a 2D Cad to illustrate layout. We also gave him a toll free phone number that he could call for techincal support 877-303-ACME(2263). However, our instructions were so clear and easy to install the only phone call we got from him was "WOW" that was easy.
4th - We gave him advice, insight, and insider tips on how to finish out his Archways and Ceiling designs to get the maximum "WOW" value.

Lets get started.
Simply measure the depth and width of your opening.
Next go to http://www.archwaysandceilings.com/ and punch in your measurements. You will recieve a quote immediately and may place your order with a click of the mouse. If you prefer talking to someone, we have a customer service staff always available to take your calls and answer your questions. Toll free 877-303-ACME (2263)
Once your order has been placed, you will notice that your order will arrive promptly. If your arch has a depth greater then a 2x6 simply finish the pre split cuts provided. This will allow you to attach the arch to the front and back of your opening. If your arch is smaller than a 2x6 then you can skip this step.
If you have choosen an adjustable arch then you will need to trim the arch to meet your exact measurements. If it is a fitted arch you may skip this step. An adjustable arch is good when you are not quite sure of your rough opening measurements.
Simply trim the excess arch with your saw. Now you will be ready to install.
Here is the fun part, simply nail your arch into place.
All done! Now wasn't that easy!
