When ordering from Hollington Doors we will require all of the opening measurements, for example we will need the clear drive through width x clear height, as the garage doors and macanics will be made and fitted to suit the opening space.
Measurements Required:
Clear Width = The brick to brick width. Take a measurement at the very top, then take a measurement across the middle and then at the bottom. Write them all down and then tell us the smallest measurement. If there is more then a 5 centremetre difference between them, please tell us all 3 measurements, but we would expect them to be about the same.
Clear Height = Measure from the finished floor to underside of lintel, on both the left and right.
Headroom = Measure from the underside of lintel to underside of lowest obstruction.
Side Room Left = Measured from inside looking out, we need the width of the reveal.
Side Room Right = Measured from inside looking out, the width of the reveal.
When measuring it is important to rememeber that you will need the opening to be all on one plane i.e The back of the reveals and lintel need to be flush.
