Measuring Guide - Nova Door

Single Action

The single action (only opens one way) Nova Door is face fitted so the hinges and catch are fixed to the front of the frame rather than the side. The outer profile is 30mm wide so you should ideally measure the size of the opening and add 60mm (30mm each side) to the width and 30mm to the height to determine the size of the door. The additional allowance can be less than 60mm as long as the door can close against the frame.

You should also make sure there is 20mm clearance on the frame to fix the hinges and 15mm on the opposite side to fit the catch.

If you have specified a frame then 60mm (30mm each side) should be subtracted from the width of the opening and 60mm (only 30mm if a 3-sided frame is specified) from the height.

If we cut the profile to size we will use the exact measurements provided

Double Action

The double action door (opens both ways) cannot be face fitted therefore when measuring for the width of the door please measure the width of the opening and then allow 20mm for the installation of the double action hinge and 5mm for the catch. The height of the door is the same size as the opening but we suggest you leave 5mm - 10mm clearance for ease of fitting.

If you are adding a frame then an additional 60mm (30mm each side) needs to be subtracted from the door width and height (30mm from the height if a 3-sided frame is ordered).

If you wish us to cut the profile exactly to length then we will cut to the exact measurements supplied.
