How to achieve the double seam cut

The double seam cut is used to make sure that two overlapping lengths of wallpaper so are flush against each other and the wallpaper pattern is accurately aligned. As the name indicates, this method means that two lengths of wallpaper are cut in one go.

How to do the double seam cut

When two lengths of wallpaper overlap, the side edge of the length below the overlap is visible. This is not a huge problem if you've chosen thin paper and you might not mind it at all, but it can impair the general look when using thicker wallpapers except our PVC Thickened Silk wallpaper. The bulging seam can then be quite obvious and look unsightly.

Use a cutter knife - or better yet, a special double seam knife designed specifically for this method. This will enable you to cut the seams of the lengths accurately, so that the cut-off strips can be removed very simply. If you use the correct approach, this also means that the wall surface will remain undamaged.

The double seam cut is a clean solution for inner and outer corners, window recesses and doors, especially for thicker wallpaper types.

Make sure you align the pattern of both lengths so accurately, so that it looks as if they were hung edge to edge/seam to seam. You need a good eye and a steady hand for this process as there are no markers to help you. Just be calm and patient, and all will be well. If the pattern is exactly aligned before the double seam cut is done, it will also work perfectly afterwards.

In order to achieve a straight cut, place a wallpaper cutting guide, a metal guiding bar or a long ruler onto the line where both lengths overlap. Use the cutter or double seam knife and move it along the overlap in an up-to-down movement. Now pull out the cut-off strips of both wallpaper lengths. If you have the instructions and succeeded in your efforts, the seams of both lengths should now touch accurately and you shouldn't see a seam between them.

Finally, remove any paste residue from the cut line and the surface of the wallpaper.
