Book a Free Door Measurement: How On-Site Measuring Works

t406-46

A free door measurement is an on-site visit where our team measures your opening, checks the wall and floor conditions, and records how the door will open. Once measured, you receive a written drawing and specification to approve before any production starts. Booking this visit first helps prevent costly fitting errors.

Why a Professional On-Site Measurement Matters

A door looks simple, but the opening is rarely a perfect rectangle. Walls can be slightly out of plumb, floors can slope, and tiles or thresholds can change the final height. Measuring the opening yourself with a tape often misses these details.

A professional measurement captures the real dimensions where the door will sit. This is the foundation for a door that closes smoothly, seals properly and looks right in your entrance.

What Happens During the Visit

Our technician visits your home or building at a time that suits you. The visit usually follows this sequence:

Review your photos and any existing plans
Measure width and height at several points of the opening
Check the wall depth, frame condition and floor level
Note the swing direction, handing and opening style
Discuss finish, glazing and hardware options with you

The whole visit is free, and you are welcome to ask questions throughout.

How to Prepare Before the Appointment

A little preparation makes the visit faster and more accurate. Clear the area around the doorway so the technician can work comfortably. If the old door is still in place, leave it there so we can see how it operates.

Send a few clear photos of the opening, the surrounding wall and the space where the door will swing. Note any tiles, thresholds or electrical fittings nearby, since these affect the final installation.

From Measurement to Approved Drawing

After the visit, we prepare a drawing and a written specification. These show the door dimensions, frame details, material, finish and opening direction. Nothing goes into production until you have reviewed and approved these documents.

This step gives you a clear picture of what you are getting and lets you request changes before anything is made. It is much easier to adjust a drawing than a finished door.

Iron and Aluminum: Choosing the Right Material

Iron doors offer strength and security, and they can be hot-dip galvanized and powder coated for long outdoor life. Aluminum doors are lighter, resist corrosion well and suit modern facades, often with glass panels for light.

During the measurement we discuss how the material suits your location, your privacy needs and the look you want. The right choice depends on the opening, the exposure and your preferences.

After Approval: Production and Installation

Once you approve the drawing, the door is manufactured in our factory on Rival Street 37, Tel Aviv. It then goes through finishing, such as galvanizing or powder coating, before it is delivered and installed.

Our team installs the door carefully, checking alignment, sealing and operation so it works smoothly from the first day.

Frequently asked questions

Is the door measurement really free?

Yes, the on-site measurement visit is free. You receive the drawing and specification to review before deciding to go ahead.

Do I need to be home during the measurement?

It is best that you are present or that someone who can answer questions is there. This helps us confirm the swing direction and your preferences.

What information should I have ready?

Have photos of the opening and the surrounding area, and know which side you want the door to open. Note any existing door details if you are replacing one.

Can I change the design after the measurement?

Yes, changes to the design, finish or glazing can be made on the drawing before you approve it. Production starts only after your approval.

Common mistakes to avoid

The most common error is measuring only once or only at one point of the opening. Walls and floors are rarely exactly level, so a professional measurement at several points prevents fitting problems.

Our recommendation

Book the measurement before choosing finishes, and let the technician check the wall, floor and swing direction on site. Review the written drawing carefully before approving it.

Summary

A free on-site measurement is the safest first step toward a well-fitting iron or aluminum door. It gives you accurate dimensions, a clear drawing and full control before production begins.
