1The Golden Rules of Measuring

These three rules remove most DIY mistakes before they happen.

Always use a fresh metal tape measure. Cloth tapes stretch and lie.

Measure to the exact millimetre. Do not round up or down.

Even matching windows can vary as homes settle over time.

Measure your window diagonally from corner to corner in an X shape.

If the two diagonals differ by more than 6mm, choose a Face Fit or recessed Z-Frame to hide out-of-square gaps.

Pro Tip: Do this quick check before checkout so your frame style is right the first time.

A clean, minimalist fit for square windows with enough recess depth.

The Aussie favourite for hiding small gaps and uneven reveals.

Best for shallow windows, obstructions, or windows that tilt inward.

No rush, no guesswork. Keep each window kit separate and follow this sequence.

Lay panels and frame pieces on a soft surface.

Slot pre-cut frame corners and posts together.

Lift into place, level it, and screw it in.

Align hinges, drop panels in, adjust, and admire.

PRO Tip: Check carton labels first and never mix panels or frames between windows.

You are one step away from a polished, factory-direct finish for your Melbourne home.
