DIY SLIDING WARDROBE DOORS- HOW TO MEASURE YOUR SPACE


Follow these steps to ensure you get the perfect fit for your new DIY Sliding Wardrobe Doors


Preparation 

The top track provided with our DIY Sliding Wardrobe Doors is designed to fix to the ceiling. If your ceiling is not level then we recommend building a bulk head to drop the height down so you have something level to fix too. Alternatively, you can also request that we supply you with a white melamine bulkhead. You can then plane/scribe this bulkhead down to suit the slope of your ceiling when you are installing your new doors. When giving us the measurements enter the smallest width and height dimensions to ensure that your wardrobe doors aren’t supplied too big.


Measuring The Height

Our doors allow for up to 15mm variation in height difference over the span of your wardrobes. Please measure the 3 points as indicated on the diagram at the depth of the wardrobes (usually 600mm from the back wall) and enter the smallest & largest dimension. If you have carpet flooring, it is best to compress the carpet down slightly when taking the height measurement to allow for an accurate reading.


Measuring The Width

Measure the space at the top and bottom of the opening and provide us with the smallest and largest measurements. Please allow for the removal of any skirting or coving that may be in the way. This will need to be cut out during the installation to allow for the 85mm track system.

PLEASE NOTE – Our tracks and end panels are supplied longer to be cut on site. 


Measuring Wall To End Panel

Please allow for the removal of any skirting or coving that may be in the way. This will need to be cut out during the installation to allow for the 85mm track system. Provide us with the overall desired length that you would like your wardrobe to be.

PLEASE NOTE – Our tracks and end panels are supplied longer to be cut on site. 


Measuring End Panel To End Panel

Measure the dimensions from the outside to outside points of each side panel. If you would like us to supply the side panels, please provide us with the overall desired length that you would like your new wardrobe to be.

PLEASE NOTE – Our tracks and end panels are supplied longer to be cut on site.
