We customise every wallpaper to fit the exact size of your wall. To get started, all we need are the width and height at the widest and tallest point of your wall.
Step 1: Measure the Width
Use a measuring tape to note the distance from the leftmost edge to the rightmost edge of your wall.
Step 2: Measure the Height
Measure from the floor to the ceiling at the tallest point.
Tip: Don’t include skirting boards, cornices, or ceiling mouldings—just measure the usable wall space.
Step 3: Add a Safety Margin
When placing your order, add an extra 10cm (4 inches) to both width and height. This ensures a clean, precise fit during installation.
Step 4: Double-Check
Check your measurements twice before sending them to us. Accurate measurements mean your wallpaper arrives ready to fit your space perfectly.
Standard Wall
The simplest of all walls—measure the exact height and width of the wall. Don’t include skirting boards, cornices, or ceiling mouldings—just measure the usable wall space.
Wall with Angled Ceilings
If your wall meets a sloped or angled ceiling, measure the height from the tallest point of the wall and the width from the leftmost to the rightmost edge. Your wallpaper will be produced in panels that form a full rectangle. During installation, the angled section will be trimmed away, ensuring the wall is completely and seamlessly covered.
Walls with Pitched Ceilings
If your wall is shaped like a trapezium, with angular sides at the top two corners, measure the height at the tallest point and the full width from the leftmost to the rightmost edge.
Your wallpaper will be produced as a full rectangle. During installation, the angled sections will simply be trimmed away, ensuring the entire wall is neatly and completely covered.
Walls with Doors and Windows
For walls that include doors, windows, sockets or carpentry, measure only the maximum width and height of the entire wall. Your wallpaper will be produced to cover the full surface area. During installation, any openings or obstacles will be neatly trimmed away.
Continuous Joining Walls
If you’d like your wallpaper to flow across two or more walls—even wrapping around all four sides of a room—please measure the maximum height and the combined width of the walls in sequence.
If you’re unsure how to take these measurements, just send us a photo of your room at [email protected]. We’ll guide you through it and make sure the final result looks seamless.
Remember, we’re here to make it easy—and can’t wait to help dress up your walls with Hello Circus.
