Width measurement
You first measure the width at your house where the veranda will be placed. You should also measure the width at the front. Gumax® verandas are supplied as standard from 3.06m wide and increase by the metre: 3.06 m, 4.06m, 5.06m etc. The width can easily be shortened to size. Depth measurement After this, you can determine and measure what the desired depth should be. Tuinmaximaal has four standard depths available: 2.5 metres, 3 metres, 3.5 metres and 4 metres. All depths can be shortened to size. This allows any depth up to 4 metres.
Height measurement
Measure the height at the back of the veranda. Tuinmaximaal recommends a height for the bottom of the gutter of 2.10m, 2.15m, 2.20m, 2.25m, 2.30 or 2.35m. With these dimensions, the glass sliding doors under the veranda always fit exactly and the spot foundations can still be dug in easily.
