How To Measure For Cabinet Glass Inserts

 

Getting a correct measurement for your cabinet glass size is the MOST important thing you must do to order our etched glass cabinet inserts. Please follow the measuring guidelines below to ensure your cabinet glass insert fits correctly. Please allow for a plus or minus 1/16" allowance due to the tempering process. Note:  Round down all measurements to the nearest sixteenth of an inch. For example - change a measurement of 12 11/32" to 12 5/16".

Tight Size Measurements - From Back of Cabinet Door - This is the opening that the glass insert will fit into on the back of the cabinet door.

  • From the back side of your cabinet door carefully measure the width and the height of the maximum area the glass insert will fit into.

 

  • We suggest you deduct a minimum of 1/8" from the width and 1/8" from the height measurements of the Tight Size opening on the back of the cabinet door to give you an allowance for the glass to fit. For example, if the tight opening measures 14" x 24", we suggest you order 13 7/8" x 23 7/8" for your glass size.


Lite Size Measurements - From Front of Cabinet Door - This is the visual opening you can see through on the front of the cabinet door.

  • From the front side of your cabinet door, carefully measure the width and the height of the visual area you can see through.

 

  • This measurement will give us the rabit size so we know how much of the glass goes under the moulding. We need this to adjust any etched borders.


Inform us of the following information about your cabinet door
●  On the front or back side of your cabinet door, is there an arched or curved area, in wood or for glass?
●  On the back side of your cabinet door, are the four corners (where the glass insert will be placed in) square or do they have a radius?
