How to calculate the size of the main door according to the hole ruler

Feng shui standard door size will bring fortune to the homeowner.

Currently there are 3 types of hole rulers:

1. Clearance (52.2cm)
2. Duong Trach (42.9cm)
3. Negative part (38.8cm)

The hole ruler to measure the size of the main door according to feng shui is the Tong Shui ruler (52.2cm) . The 52.2 cm Clearance Ruler is divided into 8 large arcs. Each large arc is 65mm long. Among them, there are 4 most beautiful palaces: Nobleman, Genius, Humanity and Prime Minister. Homeowners only need to measure the door size according to the correct measurements corresponding to the beautiful arcs recorded on the ruler.

How is the size of the main door calculated according to feng shui?

Dimensions based on door type:

• Main door size: 1 swing-open wing
• The size of the two main doors is the same
• The size of the two main doors is not equal
• Size of 3-panel main door
• The size of the 4-panel main door is equal
• The size of the 4-panel main door is not equal

The feng shui size of the main door has 1 revolving door

The main door with 1 swing-open wing is the most common type for mini apartment designs, townhouse designs, level 4 houses and small houses. This door feng shui size can also be applied to room doors and balconies.

The main door size of a 5m tube house has the best feng shui in the range of:

• Height ranges from 2025mm to 2150mm.
• Width ranges from 720mm to 845mm.

Note: The golden ratio often chosen is (height) 212cm x (width) 81cm. Depending on the door frame, you can calculate the overall length and width.

In case the door frame is 4.2cm thick, the suitable feng shui size for the main door will be:

• Length is 212 + 4.2 (top) = 216.2 cm
• Width is 81 + 4.2 (left) + 4.2 (right) = 894 cm.

If the size of the 1-wing main door is not in the beautiful range, you can solve it by avoiding the bad arcs on the ruler. Eg:

• Clearance width > 845mm, you can replace it with size 980 mm x 1150mm. Note: if the door is too big, the hinges will easily sag.
• Clearance width < 720 mm, you can replace it with size 460mm x 585mm. Note: if this door is too narrow, it will unbalance the house.
• Clearance height > 2150mm, you can replace it with size 2290mm x 2410mm. Note: this door will not be beautiful and will easily waste money.
• Clearance height < 2025mm, you can replace it with size 1765mm x 1890mm. Note: this door will be a bit low and you will have to bend down when going through.

The size of the two main doors is the same

This type of door is very popular with its lobby door design, large main door, and size suitable for tube houses. The feng shui dimensions of the 2-panel main door are as follows:

• The clear height is from 2025mm to 2150mm, the larger size will have a height from 2290mm to 1365mm.
• The clear width is from 980mm to 1150mm, the larger size will have a width from 1245mm to 1365mm.

Note:

The size of the main door with 2 balanced iron wings has a maximum clear width of 1365mm. If this size is exceeded, the door will easily sag, affecting the hinges. At this time, the hinge will easily become misaligned and less durable. At this time, the homeowner can switch to a 4-panel or 3-panel door to ensure the aesthetics and durability of the door. If the main door material is made from lightweight aluminum (glass) or really good material, you can still choose this width size.

The size of the main door with both wings is not equal (door for mother holding baby)

The main door with two uneven wings has a modern design style and is increasingly popular. Today, many homeowners love its uniqueness and aesthetics. Sometimes, if the 2-panel door is evenly spaced and falls in an unlucky sign, this is the solution to ensure the feng shui size of the main door.

With this door design, people often open large doors when moving and only open small doors when moving things or having events to welcome guests. The feng shui dimensions of the main door's two wings are offset as follows:

• Good clearance width when both wings are open is 1240mm to 1365mm or between 1505mm and 1630mm.
• A good clear height is from 2025mm to 2150mm or from 2290mm to 2410mm.
• Nice clear width if opening 1 wing: large wing should be from 720mm to 845mm or from 980mm to 1150mm, small wing has the size when opening both wings minus the size of the large wing.

Size of 3-panel main door

The 3-panel main door type is not common and has 3 equal wings. There are 2 wings that open in a folding manner and 1 that opens in a rotating way.

The 3-panel main door feng shui has beautiful, clear dimensions in 3 cases:

• When opening, the open flap rotates and closes the two open flaps by folding
• When all 3 doors are open
• Only open the 2 folding wings.

Calculating the size of the 3-panel door must be really careful. In any case, opening and closing all or only partially opening/closing will fall into a good destiny. Therefore, this type of door is often not popular. Advice: You should consult a feng shui expert or reputable interior design unit for advice or change to a different main door style.
