First let me say these pieces are great, came perfectly packed with no damage and they are just what i was looking for. However........they are not 56 inch wide, they are close to 60 1/2! I had to have the shoe molding cut out off my wall and replaced to get them to fit. I have made Wayfair aware of the discrepancy in hopes of saving someone else the hassle of having to remove moldings or from being disappointed.
