Measuring Your Chaise Lounge For A Hinged Cushion
Our custom hinged chaise lounge cushions have a connected seat and back that is made with a pinched hinge design. There are 4 required measurements when configuring your chaise cushions. These include a width measurement, seat depth and back height measurements, and a thickness measurement. Follow the instructions below to measure your furniture for custom hinged chaise cushions.If you need instructions on how to measure for two-piece deep seating chaise cushions, Click Here.
Step 1 - Chaise Cushion Thickness
We recommend selecting your cushion thickness first. Our chaise cushions range in thickness from 2 to 5 inches.
Step 2 - Chaise Cushion Width
The chaise cushion width is measured from side to side as shown.
Remember that you must measure the actual area of your furniture that you would like to be covered by the cushion, not an old chaise cushion.Step 3 - Chaise Cushion Seat Depth
The chaise cushion's seat portion is measured from front to back as shown.
Step 4 - Chaise Cushion Back Height
The chaise back is measured from the bottom of the back to the top of the back, or the height you would like your cushions to go up on the back of your chaise.
Avoid Excessive Overhang
For hinged chaise cushions that are 3" thick or more, we recommend subtracting half of the cushion's thickness from both the seat and back measurements taken from the chaise frame. This adjustment helps prevent the cushion from overhanging the seat excessively or riding up above the back of the frame—especially when the adjustable back is angled upward, which can cause the cushion to shift higher than intended.
While overhang on the back of an adjustable-back chaise is normal, thicker cushions are more prone to significant overhang or riding-up issues if the frame measurements aren't modified to account for the added thickness and the dynamics of an adjustable back.
