Vinyl strap is cut 10% shorter than the width of the chair
and stretches when installed. As the strap is stretched, its
width shrinks about a quarter-inch. When ordering vinyl strap,
select a measurement one-quarter inch wider than currently
on the furniture. Vinyl strap is available in assorted colors
and widths as well as 100- and 200-foot rolls and pre-cut/
hole punched. Please go to Colors for availability.
Step 1: Measure Width
Measure the width of the strap in the middle (Figure 1),
not on the ends where it is attached to the frame. If it
measures approximately 1 3/4", order 2" vinyl strap.
If it measures approximately 1 1/4", order 1 1/2" vinyl
strap.
Step 2A: Measure Length for Single-Wrap Method
Place the tape measure at one hole and measure over
the frame to the hole on the opposite bar following the
placement of the strap. (Figure 2)
Step 2B: Measure Length for Double-Wrap Method
Place the tape measure at one hole and wrap the tape
around the bar once (Figure 3). Let out the tape to the
other side and wrap once around that bar following the
placement of the strap.
Step 2C: Measure Length for Clip Method
If using metal clips, place the tape measure where
the strap attaches to the clip on one bar. Measure
to the corresponding clip on the opposite bar.
Step 3: Calculate the Amount
Reduce the length of the strap measurement by 10%.
Examples:
23" length x .90 = 20.7" to order
29" length x .90 = 26.1" to order
Multiply the “to order” amount by the number of straps
for the total amount of vinyl strap to order.
