Installation & Site Work
Record a site survey
What this does
Captures the real opening sizes on site, per position, before anything is cut — the measurement of record for the whole order.
Before you start
- The quotation lists every opening as its own line.
Steps
-
01
Open the survey for the order and visit the site.
-
02
Measure each opening — width and height in several places, take the smallest.
-
03
Photograph each opening and note obstructions.
-
04
Submit the survey for approval — approved sizes flow back to the drawings.
Common mistakes
- Measuring once per opening — walls are never square; a single measurement hides the tight corner that will not fit.
