We offer 3 different wall upholstery tool kits for working on a project from start to finish. Fabric installer tools will need to cut the tracks, trim the padding and tuck the fabric in place. Our company tries to have the best tools for fabric on walls installation.
Starter Kit, set of 3.
If you have looking to do the following things, this kit could be for you. Making a repair, working on a small project, or a one time project. But it be could that you have a small budget.
The starter kit has only 3 basic tools for working with the track, the padding and the fabric. Therefore you will find the Blue track cutter, the Utility knife and the Fabric Metal Spatula.
Wall upholstery tool kit, set of 6.
In the Thoman’s wall upholstery tool kit, we have a set of 6 fabric tucking tools for fabric walls. You will use them at different stages of the installation. These hard to find specialty fabric tucking products have stainless steel plates but also, have excellent wood handles. In total the set has 5 strong American built plus the bonus the plastic spatula. The tools are presented in the order of use in a project. But we have a video that shows the set of tools used in room.
Another set of tools, the PRO KIT of 10 pieces
This Pro Kit has 2 new items making the largest set of fabric tools.
On top of all the tucking tools and track cutter, we recently added great cutting tools. Any fabric installer will enjoy these 10 tools.
The utility box knife carries a load of 5 tungsten sharp blades. Is it the perfect knife for trimming the padding around the tracks and outlet plates. Just in case you need extra blades, we give you one box of 10 blades. Note that each blade has 8 snap-off sections.
The second cutting tool is Eric’s favorite pair of scissors. But why?
Because the design is special. They are custom made for cutting the fabric with ease and fast. The installer cuts comfortably the fabric without rubbing his hand against the wall. The handle is away or off-set from the two blades which makes it ideal. As a result, the cutting phase is more efficient. You will love them.
Track Cutter is an existing cutting tool in our collection. It cuts the track systems, our brand plus others up to 1 inch thick. Learn more on the track cutter.
Now, we look at all the fabric tucking tools.
To begin with, we have the Straight Head Tacker. It has a special flat plate with a 5-inch wood handle. Use it in the beginning, when stretching and fitting the fabric in the track. So, this tool tucks the fabric from place to place around a wall or a panel.
The Angle Tacker or Bend Head compared to the one described just above has a head bend. It facilitates the tucking the fabric in hard place. Also, useful upholstery tool for working close to a ceiling and floor.
Next, there is a Rocky which has an 11″ of working plate. Rocky is design for inserting the fabric after it is in the correct place. Rock it back and forth for pushing the fabric in the track.
All your fingers fit comfortably inside the handle.
Please note the spatula plate could be sharp when brand new. We recommend to sand down the sharp edge with very fine sandpaper. Always use caution with thin fabric.
Speed roller provides quick and steady tucking of the fabric in the straight line. A very short video of the hand tool is available. You can read more about speed roller since it is sold separately. Don’t use it on tight arch doors or windows, only in straight line or large curve.
Once you finish working a large space, you will need to reach small area. Take your Bay Leaf and push the fabric in the track with the tip of the tool.
If you need an extra spatula to hold the fabric in place or you have a helper, then Ergo spatula is really great. The bonus!
Lastly, we include in the tool kit, a plastic spatula. The plastic spatula works by delicate moldings. Of course, it will not last as long as the other heavy duty spatulas.
