BEFORE YOU START

Frequently
Asked Questions

Do I need my final measurements to start?

You can explore layouts first. Before settling on a design, measure your room and compare it with the layout dimensions and exact kit requirements.

Does the designer provide construction-ready plans?

The full build package is $100. Start by reviewing your project overview. Before construction, confirm all dimensions, drilling locations, and installation details against your selected hardware manufacturer’s instructions.

Can I come back to my design?

Your current working draft stays in this browser. Use My account in the designer to save one design to your signed-in account. Complete your profile to unlock two more design slots, for a total of three.

What if I need help with mounting?

Have a qualified professional confirm the wall structure, fasteners, and mechanism requirements. Get the property owner’s permission if you rent, and check applicable local rules before installation.
