Measuring Your Wall

Don't for one second think that your wall isn't suitable for a stunning wall mural! At Wallsauce we like to think that anything is possible. See our guide to measuring your wall type below. If you have an unusual shaped wall that isn't listed below, get in touch and we'll help.

Measuring Standard Walls for a Mural

Measuring Standard Walls for a Mural

For walls that are typically square or rectangular, simply measure the full width of your wall from edge to edge. We recommend that you measure the heights of both the right and left side of the wall as the two sides can often differ. If one side is shorter than the other, select the greater of the two heights.

We recommend that you add an extra 5cm or 2” to the height and width of your mural to accommodate any variations in the height and width. Any excess can be trimmed when you hang your mural onto the wall.

Measuring a Slanted Wall for Wallpaper

Measuring a Slanted Wall for Wallpaper

If your wall is in an attic or is a unique shape, measure the width and height of the greatest lengths on your wall and ignore any slants or slopes. The mural will be supplied as a full rectangle mural and the slope can only be cut away after installation.

As a precaution, we also suggest you add 5cm or 2” to your overall dimensions. This can be trimmed off once your mural is installed.

How to Measure Walls with Doors and/or Windows

If there are any obstacles on your wall, such as doors or windows, simply measure the entire wall as you would for a full standard wall and cut away the obstacle during hanging.

As a precaution, we also suggest you add 5cm or 2” to your overall dimensions. This can be trimmed off once your mural is installed.

Check, check and check your measurements again! If you are in any doubt, add a little extra. It's easy to trim your mural.

Ideally, use a tape measure that is long enough to measure the entire wall.

If you don't want to fill your entire wall, you can order a wall mural to cover only part of it. The minimum order size is 2 square metres.
