Installation
Chevron Wood Floors

Seamless “V” pattern
Sleek, continuous flow
Equal left and right pieces
Herringbone Wood Floors
90°
Broken zig-zag
Staggered elegance
Uniform rectangles
While both patterns offer timeless appeal, Chevron wood floors offer a more refined and streamlined aesthetic, making them ideal for modern luxury interiors where clean lines and architectural flow are essential.
Chevron Flooring Installation Patterns
Our Chevron floors can be installed:
Wall-to-wall or with borders
In parallel or diagonal layouts
Diagonal installations require ~15% more material for cutting and alignment
Installation layout can dramatically impact the energy and spatial perception of a room. Diagonal Chevron installations, in particular, create a sense of expansion and movement that elevates any space.
Measuring for Chevron Wood Floors
Use our:
Online Chevron Calculator to estimate material needs
Always include 10–15% overage to account for cuts, waste, and pattern matching.
Proper measurement ensures not only accurate orders but a seamless, cohesive floor. Our tools help you eliminate guesswork and plan for both function and aesthetic perfection in every design.
Installation Tips
Chevron floors can be installed using:
Glue-down method
Nail-down with glue assist
Each Chevron board is milled with precision and requires accurate alignment. Slip tongues (splines) can be used between adjacent grooves if needed.
Precision is everything with Chevron. We recommend professional installation or close adherence to NWFA guidelines to preserve the pattern’s integrity and maximize your investment in premium Chevron wood floors.
