Measuring For Trapezoid Cushions

Trapezoid Depth Trapezoid Front Width Trapezoid Back Width Cushion Thickness

Trapezoid Shape Trapezoid cushions will be made in an isosceles trapezoid shape, which has differing front and back sizes while non-parallel sides have identical lengths and base angles.
Trapezoid Depth The trapezoid cushion depth is measured directly from the front to the back of the cushion as shown in the illustration.
Trapezoid Front Width The trapezoid cushion front width is measured from front corner to front corner as shown in the illustration. Remember that you must measure the actual area of your furniture that you would like to be covered by the cushion, not an old cushion.
Trapezoid Back Width The trapezoid cushion back width is measured from back corner to back corner as shown in the illustration. Remember that you must measure the actual area of your furniture that you would like to be covered by the cushion, not an old cushion.
Trapezoid Cushion Thickness As with every cushion, we require you to specify a thickness dimension. Cushion thickness is a matter of preference however choosing a cushion that is too thick or thin could result in an uncomfortable seating experience. If you are unsure of the thickness to choose for your furniture frame, we recommend stacking a book or two on your seating area to get a rough idea of how thick your cushion should be. NOTE: If your chair or bench frame has arms, make sure that the cushion is not too thick as this could result in the arms being too low for the person sitting on the furniture.
