estminster Specification 9 places the Trumpet stop in a horizontal position. When housed in standard Westminster casework designs the lowest 5 pipes of the stop are located inside the case with the remainder of the stop projecting from the front. This is to maintain an appropriate visual scale to the rest of the case. If  the balance of the specification is installed in chambers, for example, the Trumpet can be installed on its own windchest. This will typically be considerably more expensive than an integral solution, though, as the installation becomes much more complex.

Installation

Our pipe modules can be installed in Westminster casework designed to accommodate them. They can also be installed in existing organ chambers if appropriately designed or in custom designed "window box" display.

Antiphonal divisions

Westminster pipe modules are well suited for usage as antiphonal divisions. Such divisions are sometimes helpful when the main organ is not well situated to propagate sound to the  far reaches of the nave. When so used, appropriate pedal resources need to be provided.
