Measuring Guidelines

Click4kitchens measuring guidelines 

Firstly you should download our planning template PDF* from here (right click and 'save as') and print them out, then you can begin to measure your kitchen (best done at worktop height) preferably in metric -  this will enable you to draw a scale plan on the planning paper. It is best to nominate one corner and work around the room, measuring windows and doors as shown with check dimensions for overall length and width.

*our templates are in Adobe PDF format, you can get a free reader from here

Mark on the plan the services that currently exist – hot/cold water supply, stop cock, water meter, drains, gas point, central heating radiators and any other obstacles that may affect the kitchen design.
