RADIATOR COVER MEASUREMENT GUIDE, 

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PLACING YOUR ORDER

All measurements entered when ordering must be the FINAL EXTERNAL measurements of your radiator cover — NOT the measurements of your radiator.

YOUR MINIMUM ALLOWANCE

WIDTH → Add 10cm
5cm clearance on each side of the radiator

HEIGHT → Add 5cm
5cm clearance above the radiator

DEPTH → Add 5cm
5cm clearance in front of the radiator

These allowances are important to ensure your cover fits correctly and allows adequate ventilation around your radiator.

STANDARD RADIATOR COVERS

Radiator covers without shelving or side storage

First, measure the width, height and depth of your radiator in CM.

Then add:

+10cm to the WIDTH
+5cm to the HEIGHT
+5cm to the DEPTH

EXAMPLE

If your radiator measures:

100cm W × 70cm H × 15cm D

You should order a minimum cover size of:

110cm W × 75cm H × 20cm D

IMPORTANT

Our radiator covers are made using 18mm MDF. This is already accounted for within the above allowances.

You DO NOT need to add another 18mm.

The top shelf has an additional 1.5cm overhang on each side of the finished cover.

If your radiator is in an alcove, underneath a window sill, close to a door frame or in another restricted space, please contact us with your measurements before ordering so we can advise you.

SKIRTING BOARD CUT-OUT

To allow your radiator cover to sit flush against the wall, measure the:

HEIGHT of your skirting board in CM
DEPTH of your skirting board in CM

Enter these measurements when selecting the Skirting Board Cut-Out option.

If you do not require a skirting board cut-out, please do not select this option.

Please check the actual dimensions of your TV before ordering and provide your TV make and model where requested.

The TV, lifting mechanism and required clearances must fit safely within the selected cabinet.
