To measure for a new bath panel, you need to take two key measurements: the height and the length.
Measuring the Height
The height of your bath panel is crucial for ensuring it fits snugly between the floor and the edge of your bath.
- How to Measure Height: Use a tape measure or rule to measure the distance in mm from the floor to the bottom of the edge of the bath. This gives you the required vertical dimension for your panel.
Measuring the Length
The length measurement depends on the shape of your bath. Standard straight baths require a single front panel, while corner or L-shaped baths might need additional end panels.
- How to Measure Length: The length of the panel is measured in mm around the curve of the bath. This is best measured around the top edge of the bath.
Summary of Measurements
Here's a quick summary of how to take your measurements:
Measurement | Method | Unit |
---|---|---|
Height | Floor to the bottom of the edge of the bath | mm |
Length | Around the curve of the bath, best measured around the top edge | mm |
Taking accurate measurements ensures your new bath panel will fit perfectly, giving your bathroom a clean, finished look.
