Step 1. Print
your template from the
below or make a drawing of the area
you want to cover. This drawing does not
have to be to scale but should represent the
basic shape of the mat. See the
pattern section (below) to view available
shapes. Opposite side totals of the mat
should match. (example - The total of the
horizontal measurements across the top of
the mat should equal the total of the
horizontal lines across the bottom of the
mat. The same applies to the vertical lines
on the right and left sides of the mat.

Step 2. Using
a tape measure, measure the areas and write
them down on the drawing as illustrated
below. You will need this information later
in the process as we transfer this
information from paper to the computer.
Round your inside measurements (lip area)
down to the nearest inch mark. (example -
Your measurement is 25 1/2" you would round
it down to 25") This will allow enough
clearance to install the mat without
damaging the furniture. This will not effect
the effectiveness of the mat. |

Step 3. Now
that you have taken your measurements and
completed step 2, it is time to double check
them and figure the overall size of the
chairmat. Check opposite sides to make sure
that they total to the same #. If they do
not adjust them before proceeding.
Step 4. Now
lets figure the overall size of your mat as
illustrated below.
Step 5. ALLOW 10" FOR
LIP AREA UNDER THE DESK.
Step 6. ALWAYS ROUND
YOUR MEASUREMENT DOWN TO THE NEXT LOWEST
INCH MARK.
Step 7. USE TOTAL
SIZE OF THE OVERALL MAT TO DETERMINE WHICH
PRODUCT SIZE TO ORDER.

*REMEMBER DRAWINGS DO
NOT HAVE TO BE DRAWN TO SCALE. JUST MAKE SURE THAT
YOUR MEASUREMENTS ARE ACCURATE. DON'T FORGET TO ADD
THE 10" FOR THE LIP AREA THAT GOES UNDER THE DESK.
