How do I measure a gasket?

  • Measure the gasket you are replacing from outside edge to outside edge for both the width and the height.
  • If the profile you are replacing has darts (a projection on the back of a gasket that fits into the track), you want to measure from the center of the dart to center of the dart, rather than edge to edge.
  • Match the profile of the old gasket to a profile on our Gaskets by Profile page.
  • Please reach out to us with any questions!

What kind of gaskets do I need?

  • We offer gaskets manufactured from 3 different materials: PVC, Santoprene and Silicone.
  • PVC is the most common and is suitable for most refrigeration applications. It is the least expensive and available in every common profile.
  • Santoprene has a wider temperature range and is used commonly in refrigerators and freezers. It is more costly than PVC, but also has a longer lifespan.
  • Silicone gaskets are renowned for their durability and wide temperature range. They can handle everything from freezers to ovens.

How do I measure a strip curtain?

  • Pick your bracket type: Quickmount for ribbed or Metal EZ Mount, Universal Mount, or Wall Mount for smooth curtains.
  • Measure width and height for your kit, ensuring a bit of extra length for adjustments.
  • Choose between cooler or freezer grade strip material based on temperature needs.
  • Install the bracket according to your chosen type and mount preferences.
  • Note: 6" wide strip kits have a standard overlap of 67%.
  • Wall mount and universal mount brackets aren't available in 1' and 2' widths; for these, buy a 3' kit and trim as needed.

How do I measure a cutting board?

Measure the short and long dimensions.

  • Short Side + Short Side Fraction = Total Short Side Dimensions
  • Long Side + Long Side Fraction = Total Long Side Dimension

Determine your edge and corner style.

Edge Style:

  • Standard - Most popular option, safe to handle, square finished edge
  • Bullnose (rounded) - Edges rounded to a 1/2" radius
  • Unfinished (saw cut) - Common on custom applications, square but not finished edges

Corner Style:

  • Standard - Most popular option, safe to handle, square finished corner
  • Rounded - Corners rounded to 1/2" radius
  • Unfinished (saw cut) - No finishing, sharp corner

Note: Custom cutting boards are non-returnable as they are made to order. Please double check your measurements as we will make it to the exact dimensions that you order
