The most common dome head nails are available in up to about twenty finishes. Many of the designer furniture nails only come in one or two finishes. If you require a special order run for a custom nail head finish. This type of special order requires a minimum one-hundred-thousand designer tack purchase.
The shank or nail length of our decorative upholstery nails heads vary in length from 3/8" up to 1". Smaller decorative upholstery nails have smaller shanks. A few of our decorative upholstery nails are actually offered in two different shank lengths. The head sizes of our decorative furniture upholstery nails very from 1/16' in diameter up to 1 3/16" in diameter.
When shopping for decorative antique upholstery nails you first need to figure out how many nails you will need. You do that by first determining the diameter of the decorative upholstery nail head you wish to use. Second you need to measure the total length of the area that is to be trimmed. With those two numbers you can figure how many nails you need. If this sounds like one of those high school algebra word problems and you feel like you could use a second opinion on how many brads to order. Feel free to post to our message board for a second opinion. Always order at least 10% more that what you think you are going to need. Look for a vendor who distributes the decorative upholstery tacks in quantities that best matches your needs.
Installing decorative upholstery nail heads requires patience and a few good furniture upholstery tools. All the tools mentioned in this paragraph we distribute through our eBay store . A C. S. Osborne nylon tipped magnetic hammer No. 36 is a must have. The nylon tip will keep you from nicking the plated finish on the decorative upholstery brass tacks. The other tip on this hammer has a magnetic tip and is useful in the picking up and setting of the decorative upholstery nail into your project. Another tool many upholsters find helpful is the C. S. Osborne Quick Nailer No. 777. This tool will keep you from giving blood while trying to install your decorative upholstery brass tacks. It will conveniently hold up to 5 nails in place at a time while you hammer them in, no blood no bruised fingers. Even and exact spacing every time! Load the large end of the tool making sure the decorative upholstery nails / tacks are perpendicular to and shanks ar flush with the base of the tool. Position tunneled section of the tool over last nail driven and begin setting decorative upholstery brass tack heads. If you are installing many nails we have a decorative upholstery brass tacks nail gun that we stock that will easily automate the job if decorative upholstery tack installation.
It is worth mentioning that chain link decorator trim and matching tacks are available in a variety of sizes and finishes.
This is about the easiest installation of all. Every forth or fifth brad is an actual real upholstery brass tack. The other three or four in the row are just heads and they are all connected. This allows you to trim all around areas quickly. It is not an exact substitute for the individual stud look, but the trade off is it is more cost effective and quicker for very large areas. Some of our Stilfix/Andies are available on the roll, some or our French Natural trims are available on the strips about 39" each.
What I find more interesting than any of the above mentioned is all the different projects people buy and use these decorative brass upholstery nails studs for. The obvious is of course furniture upholstery and especially leather upholstery. Our customers use these decorative upholstery nails to trim walls, wall upholstery, interior architectural trim and detail. There are a variety of wood furniture applications. Antique trunks, foot lockers, cases, jewelry boxes, musician cases, music boxes, clocks antique and new, leather crafts, saddles and clothing.
