Positioning Baseboard and Trim in Connection with Beadboard at Waist Height

[Bullebock]

I mean, I'm starting to get tired. How do I install the baseboard if I'm going to have beadboard that's 12mm, and the baseboard is like 10mm at the top? I can't put it under the beadboard but have to put it on the beadboard, but then the trim and baseboard won't align in height. And I would like to have base blocks, how do I do that? If I put the door trims also on the beadboard, there will be a 12mm gap between the trim and the wall from chest height and up. If I put in a finishing strip there, it will make the trim 27mm thick. Help, how should it be? There are no clear pictures online.

Well, now I'm starting to get tired. How should I install the baseboard if I want to have beadboard that is 12mm, and the baseboard is about 10 mm at the top. I can't put it under the beadboard but have to put it on the beadboard, but then the trim and baseboard won't match in height? And I would like to have plinth blocks, how do I do it then? If I also place the door trim on the beadboard, there will be a 12 mm gap between the trim and the wall from chest height and up. If I add moldings there, the trim will be 27mm thick. Help, how should it be? There are no clear pictures online.

Hi! How did you finally solve your problem? I'm in exactly the same situation and I also think that if I put a board, the door frame will look too thick... I would be very grateful if you could help me. Best regards!

Hi, it worked out damn well! I cut the masonite board at 3 or 6 mm, can't remember, into long narrow strips so they were 2 cm lower in height than the baseboard itself, then glued and nailed with a nail gun on the backside of all the baseboards. Then I just placed the baseboard and trim as usual against the wall and nailed, then placed the beadboard on the baseboard. I cut the baseboard corners at 45 degrees to fit with the trim height.

Remind me to take better close-up pictures on Sunday if I forget!!

Even böstlistens hörn I adjusted 45 degrees so it matches the height against the moldings

Hi! I was thinking you might be able to help me. I have installed beadboard in the hallway and don't know how to finish the corners at the stairs, which don't have any beadboard. Thanks so much for your help! 😸

Hi! I thought you might be able to help me. I have put up beadboard in the hallway and don't know how to finish the corners towards the staircase, which doesn't have any beadboard. Thanks so much for your help! 😸

Can't you put an angle strip in wood?

Can't you put a corner strip in wood?

Yes. But how do I do that? Do I place it on top of the beadboard or do I have to trim the last beadboard to the width of the corner strip?

I would just place one on top! It will look nice!

Thank you so much! 😊 I will try it and let you know how it goes.
