How to measure your windows

The two measurements needed for your windows are the width and the height. You need to measure to and from the furthest edges of your existing window frames. Most windows are set into reveals, so be sure to measure the exact width and height of the reveal itself.

Many windows have a window sill, so be sure to include the window sill in the height measurement.

How to measure your doors

Measuring your doors is easy. The main question we are usually asked is which part of the door do you measure. You need to measure to the outside of the door frame; this is the same for the width and the height. For the height, you just measure from the outside top edge of the door frame down to the floor.
