What are single rolls, double rolls, and bolts?Updated 4 months ago

Single vs Double Roll of Wallpaper

Some wallpaper manufacturers ship what is called a "Double Roll" of wallpaper. What does that mean? Bare with us, but think of it like rolls of paper towels! They take 2 single size rolls and make one big roll. That's basically how it works with wallpaper.

TIP: Although prices on other websites are sometimes listed by the single roll (to appear cheaper), wallpaper is only sold in double rolls. Don't be fooled!

Example: When you purchase a "double roll" of wallpaper from us, you will only receive 1 roll in the mail. (1 roll purchased = 1 double roll delivered). Also note, the roll dimensions listed are for double rolls. Note: If your installer tells you to purchase 4 double rolls, then purchase a QTY of 4.

Bolts

Bolts are related to wallpaper that comes in yards. Some commercial papers are sold in a 30 yard bolt. That means 30 yards will be rolled into one bolt. For example, if you ordered 60 yards, you would receive two 30 yard bolts (rolls) in the mail.
