<p>The invention discloses a method of cutting a door panel having an appropriately spaced and repeating panel therein to provide wainscoting panels for use above inclined skirting boards of the type which are found adjacent staircases in houses. The door panel is cut along lines which bisect but do not interfere with the repeating pattern elements, which may be rectangular and stand proud of the surface of the door panel, said cut lines being diagonally inclined with respect to the substantially straight long edges of the door panel. The diagonal cuts are staggered above and below each specific pattern element, of which there are usually two adjacently disposed on the door panel, further cuts being made between and on either side of the specific pattern elements substantially parallel to the straight long edges of the door panel. In this manner, two substantially identically parallelogram-shaped wainscoting panels are obtained, the angle of inclination of the shorter sides being substantially equal to the angle of inclination of a modern domestic staircase. This allows said wainscoting panels to be simply mounted on the top edge of the inclined skirting board with their upper shorter edges being automatically aligned.</p> |
