How to Measure Counters
Some people might be interested in measuring for countertops, but others might not know how. This article will help you learn the correct way to measure counters, as well as how to ensure that you get a nice looking countertop. First of all, it’s important that you get an accurate measurement of the overall size of your kitchen. Make sure you measure from the floor to the back of the countertop, and from one side to the other. This will ensure that you get a measurement that will work well for the countertop, as well as ensure that the back of the countertop is centered in the back of the cabinet. The next step is to measure the width of the countertop. This can be a little bit tricky, so make sure that you get this right. Measure the countertop’s width from the outside edge of one side to the outside edge of the other. Make sure that this measurement is centered, or roughly so, on the cabinet. Now that you know the overall size and width of the countertop, you can move on to the next step.
Countertop Corner Details

The sink hole should be at least 3.5 inches in diameter and the faucet hole should be at least 1.5 inches in diameter. The countertop should also have a beveled edge, and be at least 5 inches deep. The topside of the countertop should be at least 2 inches thick.
Cornerboard Options
You’ll find that the size and type of cornerboard really depends on the project and the space you have to work with. If you have a corner that’s already in use, for example, you may want to preserve it for aesthetic reasons. If you’re replacing a feature wall with an open corner, you’ll also need to think about how the space will be used. Will you need to have access to the space? If so, will the space need to be able to be accessed easily? These are some questions that will help you determine what type of corner you should use.
