1. Take Horizontal Measurements<\/strong>. \u2194<\/span> The customer needs to measure the entire wall space if a kitchen overhaul is being done so they know how they can reconfigure the cabinets.\u00a0 If the homeowner is only replacing cabinets within the current layout, the measurements of the current cabinets should be measured as well. Measurements should be taken from wall edge to wall edge in order to get the total space. The measurements for openings like doors or windows are taken from one underside of trim to the other underside of trim. The trim or molding around it are not included in the measurement.\u00a0 Tip:\u00a0 All of the numbers should be written clearly so they are legible later and rounded to the nearest one-sixteenth of an inch.
2. Take Vertical Measurements<\/strong>. \u2195<\/span> The distance from floor to ceiling at each corner and the middle of each wall should be noted on the rough sketch. The house might have settled so it is important to measure several parts of the wall. The ceiling height indicated the ideal height of the upper cabinets. Measurements should take soffits into consideration.\u00a0 The soffit is the little wall that hangs down from the ceiling in front of certain areas like doors. If the kitchen has soffits, measure from the floor to the bottom of the soffit.\u00a0 Ceiling heights are normally 8 feet in older homes, and 9 feet in newer homes.\u00a0 Some homes might have even higher ceilings of 10 to 12 feet.
3. Find the Center Point of Existing Fixtures<\/strong>.\u00a0 Unless the kitchen layout is completely changing, existing features of the kitchen such as appliances, sink, and windows must be considered.\u00a0 The homeowner should measure the center point of all features. To find the center point of the sink or stove, start at the end closest to the wall and measure toward the sink or stove. The measurements stops at the middle part of the sink or center of the stove.\u00a0 If the sink or stove is located in an island, measure at the end of the island. For water and gas lines, measure form the wall to the center of the pipe or center of the appliance if it is still there.
4. Measure Doors and Windows.<\/strong> The same process should be completed for the windows and doors, the height and width should be recorded as well.\u00a0 If the sink is centered on a window, this ensures the correct placement of the cabinets that are closest to the window.\u00a0 The standard size for doors is 80\u201dx30\u201d, but the width can be as wide as 36 inches or as narrow as 28 inches.\u00a0 Windows come in a variety of sizes, especially depending on the age of the home, so it is best to take kitchen window measurements twice.\u00a0 Door and window frames and trim should be excluded from measurements.
5. Measure the Distance Between Objects to the Floor and Ceiling.<\/strong> The customer should next find the distance between objects on the wall and the floor and ceiling.\u00a0 This ensures that there are no obstacles in the way of the cabinets.\u00a0 If an object is located over an installation spot, such as a window, the cabinets might need to be moved in order to accommodate it.\u00a0 If the flooring has been removed, then it will change the vertical measurement, but will not change the ceiling height.\u00a0 Items such as ventilation, soffits, outlets, protruding walls, walkway dimensions for island installations should all be included in the floor plan.
6. Measure Existing Cabinets.<\/strong> The existing cabinets should also be measured to see what will fit.\u00a0 The homeowner should measure the height, width, and depth to get an idea of what the current cabinets are and if that size will work for the kitchen renovation.\u00a0 Depending on the cabinet\u2019s design, it might have additional features such as a toe kick, oversized countertop, or frameless door.\u00a0 For situations where only the cabinets are being replaced, this will give an idea of the measurements needed for the new cabinets.<\/p>\n
