How do I measure for kitchen doors?


Accurate measurements are essential for fitting new kitchen doors. Begin by measuring the height and width of each existing door. Use a tape measure to get precise dimensions, and note them down for each door. Measure at multiple points (top, middle, and bottom) to account for any inconsistencies or irregularities in your cabinets.

Next, measure the hinge positions. Open the door and measure from the top of the door to the centre of each hinge. This is crucial for ensuring that new doors will fit correctly onto the existing hinges without needing adjustments.

If you're planning to replace drawer fronts as well, measure the height and width of each drawer front similarly. Additionally, note the positions of any handles or knobs to ensure they align properly on the new fronts.

Finally, double-check all measurements before placing your order. Accurate and thorough measuring will help you avoid fitting issues and ensure a smooth installation process for your new kitchen doors.
