This measure guide refers to our Single Retractable Screen
Measuring Your New SecOnline Retractable Screen - Reveal Fit
To measure for your new SecOnline retractable screen, you’ll need:
A good quality tape measure
Pen and paper (to record measurements)
We don’t recommend bending the tape measure. Instead, use the tape lock and (if needed) add the tape body length onto your measurement.
Before you start
Please ensure you review the tracking/frame dimensions for your chosen retractable screen before placing your order. You can find the relevant specifications using the links below.
Step 1: Determine the Sliding Direction
If you're ordering a single-slide retractable screen door, you'll need to determine the sliding direction.
Standing outside looking in, identify whether your screen will close to the left or right.
This will be the sliding direction you select when ordering your screen.
Step 2 – Measure the Width
Measure the width of your door or window opening in three places: top, middle and bottom.
Use the smallest measurement and apply the following adjustment based on your installation method:
Reveal Fit: Deduct 2 mm from your smallest measurement.
This is your final make-size width.
Step 3 – Measure the Height
Measure the height of your door or window opening in three places: left, centre and right.
Apply the following adjustment based on your installation method:
Reveal Fit: Deduct 2mm from your smallest measurement.
This is your final make-size height.
Important: The above guide is based on a reveal fit (recommended) if you intend to face fit your screen, please let us know in the notes of your order.
