How to Measure Your Door Frame Before Buying

Avoid costly mistakes by measuring width, height, and wall depth correctly before you order a steel door.

Even the best door underperforms if it is fitted poorly. How to Measure Your Door Frame Before Buying walks you through what to expect and how to prepare for a smooth installation day.

Key points for Kenyan buyers

  • Measure width at top, middle, and bottom — use the smallest reading.
  • Record height on both sides in case the opening is out of square.
  • Wall depth determines frame and casing requirements.
  • Share photos and measurements with your supplier for verification.
