Whether you're just thinking about a home improvement project, or you've already visited a 1951 Cabinetry distributor, it's helpful and important to accurately measure your space. Knowing room dimensions and understanding where fixtures are located is crucial as you design your space and plan your project.
Room Dimensions
Sometimes it can be helpful to start with a rough sketch outline of your kitchen. Begin by measuring the length, width, and height of your space. Measure the full length of each wall corner to corner, as well as floor to ceiling. You’ll also want to note entryways, doors (swing direction), windows, and soffits, and include measurements.
Existing Fixtures
It’s important you don’t forget to measure features of your space that are going to be staying, this will ensure your new project will fit in seamlessly with your existing space. Measure the size and location of air vents and outlets, note the positions of water pipes, and measure the locations and dimensions of light fixtures, cabinetry, and appliances that are staying.
