Measurement Guide
How do I measure my canopy for glass sliding walls? Accurate measuring is the foundation for perfectly fitting glass sliding walls. Follow the steps below carefully.
What you need
✓Tape measure (min. 5 meters)
✓Spirit level
✓Pen & paper
✓Step ladder (if needed)
1
Measure the width (W)
Measure the inside dimension between the posts/pillars where the glass will be placed.
- Measure at the top, middle and bottom
- Note the smallest and largest measurement in millimeters
- This is your width measurement (W)
2
Measure the height (H)
Measure from the top of the floor/bottom rail to the underside of the beam where the top rail will go.
- Measure left, center and right
- Note the smallest and largest measurement in millimeters
- This is your height measurement (H)
3
Check if everything is level
Place your spirit level:
- On the floor
- Against the posts
- Under the top beam
- Do you see deviations? Let us know.
4
Floor check (important)
The load-bearing capacity of the construction must be at least 120 kg per m². The bottom rail must be placed on a hard, flat surface:
- Concrete / tiles / hard foundation = good
- Wood or sunken tiles = correct first
Example notation
↔Width (W): 3924 mm
↕Height (H): 2146 mm
