MEASURE YOUR WINDOWS

Plowman's Windows & Doors Receives 2009 Best of Millville Award

"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.
