Q: What is custom woodwork? A: Custom woodwork refers to made-to-order wood products created to match your exact design, size, and functional requirements. At Art For Everyday, our custom woodwork and fabrication services go beyond. We create new designs from scratch, restore or recreate existing pieces, customize sizes from our standard collections, and produce specialty items such as religious carvings, furniture components, decorative carvings, and architectural wood elements.
Q: What is the difference between custom fabrication/woodwork and standard wood products? A: Art For Everyday Inc. Standard wood products are mass-produced in fixed sizes. Custom fabrication allows us to create corbels, appliques, kitchen island posts, mullion inserts, and millwork tailored to your dimensions, design, and application. We can also customize the size of our standard designs.
Q: What types of products can you make through custom woodwork and fabrication? A: We can design and manufacture almost any wood-based component, including custom tambour and slatted panels, decorative texture wall and ceiling panels, fluted and reeded panels, sculptures, cabinet doors and drawer fronts, furniture and furniture parts, retail fixtures, display units, shelving systems, reception desks, feature walls, room dividers, signage backers, musical instruments, religious carvings, architectural mouldings, columns, screens, headboards, bar fronts, exhibition displays, and custom architectural elements.
If it can be made from wood or MDF, we can fabricate it to your exact specifications.
Q: Do you offer support for custom millwork for commercial and residential projects? A: Yes. We provide wood-based custom fabrication and component support for commercial and residential millwork projects, including kitchens, retail spaces, hospitality, offices, and interior environments. We manufacture made-to-order wood panels, components, and architectural elements based on your specifications.
Q: What are flexible tambour panels? A: Flexible tambour panels are made from narrow slats mounted on a flexible backing, allowing the panel to bend and wrap around curved or flat surfaces. They are commonly used for cabinet doors, curved walls, islands, reception desks, furniture, and architectural features.
Q: What are your tambour panels made from? A: Our tambour panels are manufactured using Solidwood and high-quality MDF slats mounted on a durable flexible backing. This ensures a smooth surface for painting or finishing while maintaining consistent spacing, strength, and flexibility.
Q: Can the panels be used on curved surfaces? A: Yes. Our tambour panels are designed specifically for curved, radius, and wrap-around applications. They can be applied to convex and concave surfaces, making them ideal for columns, islands, curved cabinetry, and feature walls.
Q: What slat sizes are available, and do you offer cut-to-size panels? A: We provide a wide selection of slat widths and profiles, and every tambour panel is precision cut-to-size. All panels are trimmed in our shop prior to shipping, so they arrive ready to install with little to no on-site cutting required.
Q: How are flexible tambour panels installed? A: For secure installation, we recommend using construction adhesive (mastic-type), PVA wood glue, epoxy, or contact cement. After the adhesive is applied, a fine nail gun is used to fasten the flexible tambour panels to the substrate. Panels can be mounted to MDF, plywood, drywall, or curved formwork. For wall-mounted applications, 2-clips or French cleats may also be used for added support and precise alignment.
Q: Do you provide Tambour Panels samples? A: Yes. We can provide samples kit so you can review the profile, flexibility, wood species and quality before placing a full order. HERE
Q: What industries use your tambour panels? A: Our flexible tambour panels are used by cabinet makers, furniture manufacturers, interior designers, architects, retail designers, hospitality projects, and residential homeowners.
Q: Do you manufacture the panels or import them? A: We are a Canada-based manufacturing unit, and all our flexible tambour panels are made in-house at our Toronto facility. We do not rely on third parties or imported products. Every panel is crafted and finished by our skilled team, ensuring consistent quality. Our panels are then supplied across North America, ready for installation.
