General Product Information

Upholstery Frame Construction

Due to the various structured designs of our products, we use a combination of selected kiln-dried hardwood components in combination with 7-ply plywood engineered frames. All stress joints are double-doweled, glued and screwed.

Seat Construction

  • Sinuous Wire: A sinuous wire spring is used throughout. These springs are fully tempered to provide maximum resilience, more body support, and greater seating comfort for the life of the product.

Fabric Information

The following are fabric specifications for tailoring Heritage High Point products:

  • Only stripes, plaids and center prints are matched.
  • Back cushions and seat cushions are matched on both sides where the fabric pattern allows.
  • Inside and outside arms are matched. Outside backs are matched.
  • Inside backs to seat cushions to seat cushion borders to skirts are matched.
  • Kick pleat skirts are pelon lined to provide a neat tailored look.
  • Heritage High Point is not responsible for dye lot differences for orders that are placed at different times.
  • A railroaded fabric pattern is one where the pattern runs horizontally from selvage to selvage. This allows one to “unroll” the fabric across the sofa and cut and apply the fabric without seams to a one-piece back. A “topped” also known as an up the bolt pattern is one where the pattern runs vertically from one end of the roll to the other. This necessitates the use of seams for one-piece backs and cushions.
Railroaded
Topped (As Woven)
NOTE: Bench Seats will have a seam if a topped fabric is used.

C.O.M. (Customer's Own Material)

When ordering Heritage High Point furniture in COM fabrics please adhere to the following steps:

  • Using C.O.M. there is a $100 upcharge.
  • COM yardage requirements for matched fabrics and topped fabrics must be increased over the stated yardage on each individual style. See chart on page 3.
  • Fabric must be marked with dealer name, order number and date, style number and customer name. Please include the following form with COM.
  • The customer must inspect all COM fabric. The factory accepts no responsibility and will allow no adjustments on COM. Should the fabric be defective, it will be returned freight collect.
  • If contrast welts are desired, add 1 yard for chair, 1.5 yards for loveseat & 2 yards for sofa.
  • Unless specific instructions are provided regarding the application of stripes, vertical, horizontal, or face side of the fabric, it will be applied by the factory at their own discretion without liability for doing so. We will assume that the face side is rolled in. If there can be a question concerning which side is the face side, please attach a cutting showing the face side to the COM form.
  • COM must be shipped to the factory freight prepaid. Please take note: COM orders are not placed into production until the COM is physically received at the plant. Please have the description of COM on your order, if you don't have a pattern and color number; a good physical description will suffice.
  • When multiple fabrics are used, each fabric must be clearly marked as to location or part of the upholstered item.
  • All fabric is subject to factory approval. Not all fabrics are suitable for upholstery manufacturing.
  • We will no longer return excess yardage; therefore, please ONLY send the required yardage for items being ordered.
  • We only accept COM that is a 54” width.
  • If contrast welts are desired, add 1 yard for chair, 1.5 yards for loveseat, 2 yards for sofa, and 3 yards for headboard.
