  Composite and External UPVC doors  
 

Measuring your door is very simple.

Using your outside BRICKWORK-TO-BRICKWORK as your measuring points, simply follow the instructions detailed below to obtain the correct sizes.

 
  Width
Take three measurements in millimetres (mm) horizontally as shown in diagram 1.

Measure the top, middle and bottom and deduct 10mm from the smallest of the three measurements to give you your width.

If you are unsure about measuring your door we advise that you ask the help of a friend who is competent with a measuring tape or you contact a local builder or joiner. If you would like us to talk you through this process then we’re happy to help and only a phone call away.

 
  Internal UPVC Doors  
 

Measuring your door is very simple.

Using your Door frame as your measuring points, simply follow the instructions detailed below to obtain the correct sizes.

 
  Width
Take three measurements in millimetres (mm) horizontally as shown in diagram 1.

Measure the top, the middle and bottom and deduct 5 mm from each of the measurements.

If the three measurments are the same, then this is your width and you should choose the EDGE BANDED option.

If the three measurements are not the same, then take the greatest of the three, and this is your width, and you should choose the EDGE TRIM option which allows for planing your door to achieve a perfect fit.
