How to Choose Granite Wall Caps
Match the cap width to the wall width plus the overhang you want on each side, choose a thickness that suits the wall's scale, then pick a finish — thermal, sawn or split — that matches the wall and surrounding stone.
Practical guidelines:
- Overhang: a modest overhang on each face gives a clean shadow line and helps water drip clear of the wall.
- Thickness: heavier caps suit taller or rustic walls; thinner caps suit low seat walls.
- Joints: plan cap layout so joints fall away from corners and steps where possible.
- Finish: thermal is uniform and slightly textured; sawn is smoother; split reads more rustic.
