Project planning / Buying guide

Opening size is only the start

Separate opening dimensions, door-panel dimensions and installation clearance.

Measure the opening

Record the finished opening width and height, the measurement unit and whether finishes are complete. Estimates are useful for early discussion, but are not production dimensions.

Check the surrounding space

Record headroom, side room, internal depth, obstructions and the proposed operator position. Have the final configuration and dimensions checked by the project installer before production.
