How To Measure Guide

To ensure your replacement doors are made to the correct size, please follow these measuring guidelines carefully:

Measure from the reverse side of the door

Always measure the back of the cabinet door for the most accurate dimensions.

Measure the height (A)

Place your tape measure straight along the full vertical edge of the door from top to bottom.
Ensure the tape follows the edge of the door and is not angled.

Measure the width (B)

Measure across the full horizontal width of the door from edge to edge.
Keep the tape measure straight and level for an accurate reading.

Record measurements in millimetres

Enter your sizes as Height x Width
Example: 715mm x 496mm

Double-check all measurements

We recommend measuring each door individually, even if multiple doors appear to be the same size.

Door Hinge Drilling

If you require hinge holes pre-drilled in your replacement doors, there are two options available in the dropdown menu:

Standard Hinge Position

Our standard hinge hole position is 100mm from the top and bottom of the door (measured to the centre of each hinge hole).

Custom Hinge Position

If your existing doors use different hinge positions, we can pre-drill to your custom measurements.

How to Measure Custom Hinge Positions

Measure from the top edge of the door to the centre of the top hinge hole, and from the bottom edge of the door to the centre of the bottom hinge hole.

Hinge holes are always drilled 225mm in from the hinged side of the door (left or right as selected), so you only need to provide the top and bottom measurements.

How to Identify Hinge Side

The hinge side is the edge of the door that remains attached to the cabinet when the door is opened, as shown in the diagram above.

If the hinges are attached on the left-hand side, select Left Hinged
If the hinges are attached on the right-hand side, select Right Hinged

There is typically around 5mm of adjustment within most hinge fittings, so your measurements do not need to be perfectly exact to the millimetre.

If you are unsure, please contact our team on 0333 772 4515 or sales@doorsandfittings.co.uk and we will be happy to help.
