# Fabrication

## Fabrication:

### *Carpet Runner Fabrication - results in a continuous hall and/or stair runner installation.*

For our purposes runner "fabrication" refers to the idea of altering a carpet runner. In most cases this is done in order to create a custom [landing](/docs/landing/) within a staircase which turns left or right. This allows the installation to appear continuous once completed.  Examples of our fabrication work can be seen by visiting our [**gallery**](https://www.stairrunnerstore.com/inspiration-gallery/) and many of our product pages. Fabrication work is needed for any change of direction or custom shape/size.![T shaped custom hall runner - line drawing, Plan Your Carpet runner Project - Stair Runner Store, custom hall runner fabrication](https://eayei6t27mg.exactdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/T-shaped-custom-hall-runner-line-drawing.jpg?strip=all&resize=192%2C241)

Our shipped stair runner landing or custom hall runner projects can be installed by a carpet installer or in many cases DIY installation since the fabrication work is done and the landing is shipped ready to install.  We offer detailed installation video content.*(videos are shared with customers who have purchased a full runner order from us)*

*Most carpet installers do **not** do fabrication of* [woven](https://www.stairrunnerstore.com/docs/woven-construction/)*carpet materials - our landings are fabricated in advance and ready to install. Fabrication and installation are entirely different tasks - each require specific tools and materials. A carpet installer who works primarily with basic tufted carpet products will not invest in the additional seaming tools and materials required for*[woven](https://www.stairrunnerstore.com/docs/woven-construction/)*carpet fabrication work. However, they can certainly install our fabricated project for you. [How do I Find a Carpet Runner Installer in My Local Area?](https://www.stairrunnerstore.com/docs/how-do-i-find-an-installer-in-my-local-area/)*
