"WELCOME TO HOW TO MEASURE"

MORE INFORMATION BELOW THE DRAWINGS

 

 

Note: u.i. stands for united inches. You get the united inch of a window by adding the width plus the height. Sample: 32”+38” =70 u.i. or 28”+38” =66u.i., and so on.  Also, when you measure your windows make sure you write width first, then height. 

 

MEASURE  2000

Measure the opening width in three places. Height must be measured three places. In most cases you would use the smallest measurements.
Notice if the center of the sill has a hump. If so you must shim ends of the window to prevent the new window from having a (sad face)!

 

REPLACEMENT WINDOW-Assure that the rough opening is at least 1/4" on the width, and 1/2" on the height larger than the overall exact size of the window.

BLOCK OPENINGS-Measure inside opening of your drywall or your extension jambs.

Then find out how thick they are. Most dry wall will be 1/2". Most extension jambs will be 3/4"

SAMPLE OPENING SIZE  34 1/2"----------------------50"

THICKNESS OF DRYWALL  + 1/2" X 2 SIDES ----------+ 1/2" TOP

NOTE (Most homes will have wooden sill check the thickness) + 3/4 bottom
