How to measure your space

1. Sketch the existing layout including the locations of all windows, doors, openings & other non-movable items such as built-in bookcases etc.

2. Measure the overall of each wall, corner to corner, recording each to the nearest ¼”

3. Starting at the corner of 1st wall; measure from this corner to the outside of the window casing; from here measure to the opposite side of the window casing; from here measure to the opposite corner of the 1st wall.

4. Add up the total of these dimensions & they should equal the over dimension of your 1st wall.

Continue with step 1 to 4 with each remaining wall

Include:
-Ceiling height(s)
-Height of windows & doors
