Measuring Guide
Follow these simple steps to accurately measure your space for the perfect catio design
Tools You'll Need
Measure the Length
Using your tape measure, measure the full length of the area where your catio will be installed. Record this measurement in your preferred unit:
- Feet and inches (e.g., 10ft 6in)
- Metres (e.g., 3.2m)
- Centimetres (e.g., 320cm)
- Millimetres (e.g., 3200mm)
Make sure to measure from wall to wall or boundary to boundary for the most accurate result.
Measure the Width
Next, measure the width of the space. This is the measurement perpendicular to the length you just recorded.
Again, use the same unit of measurement as before for consistency. If the space is irregular, measure at the widest point and note any variations.
Measure the Height
Measure the height from the ground to the highest point where the catio will extend. This could be:
- The eaves of your house
- A window sill
- A fence top
- Any other vertical boundary
Accurate height measurements ensure your catio fits perfectly and provides maximum space for your cats.
Check for Obstructions
Carefully inspect the area and note any obstructions that may affect the catio installation:
- Downpipes - measure their position and diameter
- Vents or outlets - note their location and size
- Windows or doors - measure their position and dimensions
- Electrical fixtures - mark their locations
- Uneven ground - note any slopes or level changes
Take photos with your smartphone to help visualise the space and share with our design team.
Record Everything
Write down all your measurements clearly on paper, including:
- Length, width, and height
- Unit of measurement used
- Location and size of any obstructions
- Any special notes about the space
Consider drawing a simple sketch of the area with all measurements labelled. This will be invaluable when designing your perfect catio.
Important Note
Accuracy is key! Double-check all measurements before submitting. If you're unsure about any measurement, our team is happy to help. You can also send us photos of the space for additional guidance.
