Step 2 - Making Your Template Once you have your templating kit, follow the simple steps below. Watch our short video below... |
Or Follow our Step by Step Guide below... Please make your template to the full width of the bed base. During production we will allow for the thickness of the mattress cover, fillings and enough room for you to fit your fingers and bed sheets. |
Step 1: Remove your old mattress/ cushions |
Step 2: Cover entire base with paper (join together so template is in one piece*) |
Step 3: Crease around edges with fingers - this is imperative to ensure the perfect fit! |
Draw around the crease with a marker pen |
Step 5: Cut-out and lay back on bed to ensure a good fit (make any adjustments by simply adding or removing paper to the edges) |
|
HINT: To stop the paper moving, cut holes in the paper and tape over them to hold it to the boards underneath. |
*If the mattress is to be split, accurately mark the location of the split onto the template, do not cut! |
If you have sloping sides against the hull use a ruler (or the back page of our leaflet!) to measure vertically from the edge of the bed base to the height (depth) of your new mattress. Use a tape measure to find the distance out to the hull at this height. Indicate this on the template as shown and repeat at each corner and 2 or 3 times along each angled side. |
Step 3 - Send it! Once you have your template all marked up, please send it back to us to the below address. We will get in touch once we have received it to go over the details of your order. Ship Shape Bedding Hoveton |
