Templating is the process where an exact duplicate mimicing the size and shape of your finished project is made. Since most walls are bowed to some extent, a template allows us to take this into account and produce a product that will match as closely as possible while minimizing any unnecessary gaps.
We start with sheets of "door skins" that we cut down to three inch strips. The strips are then cut and laid out following the outer edge of the surface. The strips are then lightly hammered down with small finishing nails in several places to keep things from moving. We then come back with smaller strip and lay them across, (front to back) to keep the template from breaking when it is moved. The strips are then hot glued together. Once the glue cools down the nails are removed. Pertinant information including your name, manufacturer and color choice, edge detail, sink set back and sink model (if applicable) and any other needed measurements are written on the template in permanent marker.
Templates are then stored until fabrication starts. Because the needed information has been written on the template previously, any of our fabricators can take down the template and know the particulars of your project regardless if he was involved in the templating process or not.
Although other companies may build off verbal specifications, to acheive the "cleanest" and best fit possible, we feel that templates play an important role in acheiving the best possible finished project to meet your expectations. http://www.monarch-designs.com/
