Accurate measurements are the foundation for a perfect end result. By carefully measuring your wall, you'll avoid running out of space or having to puzzle over the wallpapering. So take your time with this.
Measure the height of the wall
First measure the height of the wall in several places:
-
left
-
in the middle
-
right
In many homes, walls and ceilings aren't perfectly straight. Measuring at multiple points prevents surprises.
Always note the greatest measured height . This way, you can be sure the wallpaper extends throughout.
Then add an extra 10 cm margin to this height. You'll need this margin to neatly trim the wallpaper at the top and bottom.
Measure the width of the wall
Then measure the width of the wall , again in several places:
-
at the top
-
in the middle
-
at the bottom
Also write down the greatest measured width here.
Also add 10 cm extra margin to the width.
The image shows how the wallpaper is divided into strips. Each strip connects seamlessly with the next, allowing the pattern to continue beautifully across the entire width of the wall.
Always round up
Always round both the height and width up to the nearest whole centimeter.
This provides extra security and prevents you from falling short by just a few millimeters during application.
Note your measurements clearly
Write down the final measurements:
-
height including margin
-
width including margin
Please use these measurements when ordering and enter them in the form on the product page. We use this information to correctly produce the wallpaper and divide it into strips.
