Chaise, 2-piece chair, and ottoman slings are measured similarly, please email for specifics if you have questions. When you add to cart any type of sling (chair, chaise, recliner chair, ottoman) in our online store you will find the appropriate drop boxes for each sling measurement. When ordering for a loveseat or 2-seat glider you must order two sling chairs and check the drop box indicating a loveseat. The following measurements assume the old sling is in place and all of the bolts in the rails are completely screwed into the frame of the chair.
Our Sling Policy:
Here at A+Redemption Patio Furniture Rehab we have been making and installing quality slings with success for over a decade now. We do know how to make them as needed according to your given measurements. The final measurements of your finished sling (without the splines in yet) may or may not be the same due to the stretch-ability of your choice of fabric taken into consideration before manufacturing as some fabrics stretch more than others. If you have any trouble installing your new slings be sure to read all our website information first before emailing us for assistance. We are here to help you with your Patio Furniture Rehab. You may leave your phone number if you would like to have us contact you this way. Because we have to have some time frame of working with custom made slings, please understand that we can only offer adjustments on our slings within a period of 10 days from the day UPS or USPS records indicate you have received your package. If you email us within this time we can offer adjustments on slings within the policy mentioned below. Any adjustments requested after this time and then also approved by us for return will have a fee of $20 per sling plus shipping. No adjustment can be made after 30 days from the day of delivery.
Please note: There are no refunds on any custom made sling. All custom made slings are manufactured in accordance with the measurements and fabric that you submit in the order. Due to more stretching on certain fabrics, we may make some custom ordered slings slightly narrower in width than others. If we did not do this your slings would sag more than normal after some use. It is important to understand that replacement slings are installed with high tension on the fabric as you bolt them in. If your sling does not seem to fit properly, please review our Sling Installation Page first, then if you still need help email us with your concerns. It is possible to make adjustments to the slings (see next paragraph) for a small fee ($5 to $10 per sling) if they are returned to our shop after our approval. The customer is responsible to pay all shipping charges on slings needing adjustments due to a wrong measurement submitted on the order but we will cover the costs if we made the mistake.
Please understand that if a wrong measurement is submitted by the customer which is to short on the length or narrow on the width it may be necessary to purchase completely new slings on another order as there will not be enough fabric to work for an adjustment of more than 1/4" on some slings. However, if the slings are oversized due to a wrong measurement it is possible to make adjustments for the small fees mentioned above.
No sling damaged by the customer due to improper installation or mishandling can be repaired or adjusted. These slings must be purchased again in our online store to be replaced. We carefully inspect and document each custom made sling before it leaves our shop, but if you discover any manufacturing flaw with the sling material or stitching on any sling we send out, this must be confirmed by us. If it is confirmed to be our fault, we will then work with your order to correct this at no extra expense to you. It is necessary to email us before returning any sling for any reason. Please understand that there can be no guarantee with slings returned to us without our acknowledgment.
Please read our Sling Installation Page also before purchasing.
Using a cloth measuring tape, be careful to measure to the nearest 1/8" as mentioned in the pictures below. If it measures between an 8th inch point always go up for the final measurement. As you choose the sling types in our store you will have drop boxes available for each dimension needed.
Please measure all slings carefully twice before ordering.
Please note: We do not use the "imagine an invisible line" approach here. Measurements with lines you can actually see are used for our method...
Step 1
Measure the back width...
Step 2
Next, measure the bottom width...
Step 3 a-b-c
Then measure the length...
Please note: You start and end this measurement on the rail where the fabric fits in and do not include the end caps in the length. In some cases your old sling may have pulled away from the ends of the rail slots so if you wish to have the sling fit up to the ends of the slots measure the entire rail where the sling will fit in.
After choosing your fabric from the standard or specialty fabrics, submit the Fabric Choice, Spline Choice (if needed), Back Width, Bottom Width, and the Length(s) by clicking on these in the drop boxes you will find when setting up your purchase for slings in our online store.
