MEASURING GUIDE
Take all measurements from inside your property, looking out of the window. Your uPVC window or door will need a 25mm clearance around the glass, for example window vents and handles. Exclude rubber beading or seals from any measurements.
The video below will help guide as you measure.
STEP BY STEP MEASURING GUIDE
- BEFORE YOU START
What you need – tape measure, bank/credit card, pen and paper
Take all measurements from inside your property, looking out of the window. Your uPVC window or door will need a 25mm clearance around the glass, for example window vents and handles. Exclude rubber beading or seals from any measurements.
You should measure from the beading to the beading.
- STEP 1
Measure the width
Measure only the visible part of the glass pane, do not include any rubber beading around the edge of the glass. We typically recommend to do this along the bottom of the pane to ensure an accurate measurement.
Note down the measurement in mm.
- STEP 2
Measure the height
Measure only the visible part of the glass pane, do not include any rubber beading around the edge of the glass. We typically recommend to do this along the side of the pane to ensure an accurate measurement.
Note down the measurement in mm.
- STEP 3
Measure the bead depth
This is the distance between the pane of glass and the front of the window frame.
The easiest way to do this is to place a bank/credit card up against the window frame (preferably across a corner) and then measure the depth from the glass to the credit card.
This should be between 18-30mm, if in between sizes please round up. Note down this measurement.
