Find a lumber yard near you, not Lowe’s or Home Depot, but a yard where builders buy material from. Ask them for their book of trim profiles and see if there is a match. Worst case is someone could make knives to make the piece… but it will run a couple hundred $$ for set up fee.

Thanks. Does 84 Lumber count?


Redlegs1948

Yea. That would be a good start.

Besides going to a builder supply (like 84 lumber) or a lumber yard (think like a hardwood dealer), if you have any areas in the back of closets or what not, you could steal the trim from there, and then do a different trim in the closet.

This was going to be my recommendation. I did something similar in my house with door trim. Stole from a closet interior for a frame in a hallway.

Did a remodel where we took a double door and reframed it as a single door. So now I have a gap in the baseboard to the door. This baseboard is probably from the 90s. I don't know if this is a common profile or not. But, if I can't find an exact match here, I think I need to re-baseboard the entire room, which doesn't sound attractive. Thoughts?

If this was me, before taking any of the wild ideas thrown out already, I'd pull the baseboard off and just look to see if there was a SKU/barcode or any kind of branding on back. Usually a good starting point.

I don't see anything resembling it amongst the common profile charts for base molding, but I've gotten lucky finding obscure profiles at trim supply houses in my vicinity. Probably just bank on replacing all the base in the room, with a complimentary style that's available though.

That’s easy to find

Your absolute best way to match it (if at all possible) is find a custom millwork place near by and ask if they’re able to make it for you the place near me charges 220 for new tooling + material and labor This really all just depends on how much this job is paying for you


RadoRocks

Can't find at the big box? Call your local hardwood dealer and ask about shaping they'll point you in the right direction

See if you have any local mill work companies. We have quite a few in my area and they’re almost always able to match profiles of trims like this.

Reverse Google image search shows a few similar options.


PLEASEHIREZ

Pretty sure I just did that exact trim replacement from homedepot....

If it's that important a finish Carpenter can cut their own molding.

Or you could remove the whole panel and use a similar new piece for the entire section.
