Title: Elevator Cabs
Post by: crosjn on March 31, 2016, 01:20:24 pm
Well we started off the year busy as could be, but things have tapered off a bit so I'm drumming up new business.  Got a call from a good client asking if we could do wall panel upholstery.  So, I go see them and they want an elevator cab reupholstered.  Anyone done that?  Know how it's done?  We're about to find out, but if possible I prefer not to learn in front of the client!

The panels that I have done were made out 3/4" plywood.  The maintenance person for the building took them out of the elevator, picked them up, upholstered them and returned them.  They re-installed them.  Some were held in place by velcro and others by a track.
