HOW TO MEASURE
MEASURING TAPE
The first tool you will need in your wallpaper project is a measuring tape.
⛔️ Never use a phone app to measure a wall, they are not as accurate as they seem.
Round up Inches
Measure in inches, never work with fractions. Round up to the next whole number.
WALLS
- Walls are almost never straight. -
Measure Width at top and bottom. Measure Height at left and right. Width and Height “should” be consistent, but if numbers are off: It is completely all-right!
Just consider the biggest measurement.
ALWAYS ADD A BIT MORE
Better safe than sorry: Add at least 2 inches to each dimension.
*PS: Don't be afraid to trim! it's a crucial step in achieving a flawless wallpaper installation.
STANDARD WALLS
Measure horizontal Width and vertical Height of the area you are planning to wallpaper.
Measure twice to make sure you have the right numbers.
Do not consider baseboards, or ceiling moldings.
SLOPED WALL
For sloped walls, measure the longest and widest sections, ignoring the slope. Order material to cover the entire measured area.
We supply untrimmed items, with adjustments for irregular spaces made during installation.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Measure the overall Width and Height, as if there were no windows or doors. Order material to cover the entire measured area.
We supply untrimmed items, with adjustments for irregular spaces made during installation.
Multiple walls
Measure overall Width and Height, order as much as needed to cover all the area.
MURALS
Murals are big scale arts without a repeat rate. Order by the size of your wall. Your can order half walls too. Have it customized and printed. Your order will be divided into even numbered panels for installation.
Wallpaper
Patterns with a steady repeat rate are sold by panels. To cover one entire wall you will need multiple panels. Order multiple panels in the Quantity selector. We offer a wide range of panel heights to accommodate all types of projects.
All our wallpapers have a straight match, so they match when you put them one next to the other.
When combining panel heights within an order, consider the design always match at the top.
