Measuring Your Space for WUDN Wood Panels
Measuring your space accurately is essential to ensure a perfect fit for your WUDN wood panels.
Follow this quick guide to help you get started:
1. Gather Your Tools
You will need:
- A measuring tape
- A pencil and paper (or a digital device) to note down measurements
- A level (optional, but helpful for accuracy)
2. Determine Your Area
Identify the walls or surfaces where you plan to install the wood panels. Consider any unique features, such as windows, doors, or electrical outlets, that may affect your measurements.
3. Measure the Width
- Start at one end of the wall and measure to the other end.
- Be sure to measure at multiple points (top, middle, and bottom) to account for any irregularities in the wall.
- Record the longest measurement as your total width. We advice you add an additional 50-100mm each side in case your area is uneven.
4. Measure the Height
- Measure from the floor to the ceiling, or above the skirting board to the ceiling (or the desired height if you’re not going all the way up).
- Again, check at different points to ensure consistency and note the height. We advice you add an additional 50-100mm each side in case your area is uneven.
5. Subtract Areas for Openings
- If there are doors, windows, or other openings, measure these as well.
- Subtract the total area of these openings from your overall wall area to get the final measurement for your panels.
6. Plan for Panel Orientation
Consider how you want to orient the panels (horizontal or vertical, if an option) as this may affect the number of panels you'll need.
7. Calculate how many panels
Divide your measurements into the width and height of the panel.
Example for a full panel covering:
Your wall height is 2330mm. The WUDN Panels are 2400mm - the panels will cover your whole wall with a 70mm excess.
Your wall width is 5588mm. A full WUDN panel is 1200mm.
5588\1200 = 4.66
Round up 4.66 to next whole number:
you need 5 full panels
You can now check to see if 4 full panels and 1 half panel is sufficient for your order
Your wall is 5588mm
1200 x 4 = 4,800
5588 - 4800 = 788
A half panel is 600mm, you need 788mm. You will need a full board to cut to size.
