MEASURE YOUR SPACE

Start With the Right Measurements

You don't need a professional floor plan to get started. A few basic measurements, photos and notes about your space can give our design team the information needed to begin understanding your wine storage project.

QUICK TIP Don't worry about making your sketch perfect.

A simple hand-drawn layout with clearly labeled dimensions is often a great place to start.

01
ROOM DIMENSIONS

What Should You Measure?

↔
Wall Widths

Measure each wall where wine racks, shelving, cabinetry or other storage may be installed.

↕
Ceiling Height

Measure from the finished floor to the ceiling and note any areas where the height changes.

□
Doors & Openings

Note the width, height and location of doors, openings and entryways within the space.

▦
Windows

Measure window width and height and note its position on the wall.

⌁
Obstructions

Identify columns, soffits, stairs, outlets, switches, vents or other features that may affect the layout.

⌂
Room Shape

Note corners, angled walls, alcoves and other architectural details that make the space unique.

02
SHOW US THE SPACE

Take a Few Photos, Too

Measurements tell us the size of the room. Photos help communicate the architecture and existing conditions.

01 Full Room Stand back and capture as much of the space as possible.
02 Each Wall Photograph the walls where wine storage may be installed.
03 Openings Include doors, windows and transitions into nearby rooms.
04 Important Details Capture unusual corners, utilities, soffits or obstructions.
