Once you’ve chosen the prefect countertop material, one important decision remains. What edge profile to choose?

For “function first” areas like kitchen counters, the basic square edge profile is the most popular choice.

Some profiles are very ornate and traditional like Ogee or Double Ogee. Some lend themselves to the clean straight lines of craftsman and shaker, while others may enhance the graceful curve of an oval table top.

Some edge profiles are cut entirely by machine, while the more ornate and complex profiles require hand cutting. Costs vary depending on the labor and additional material that is required. See Edges Visualizer.
