What Do The Window And Door Sizes Represent?
Most home plans are usually designed using a double hung divided light window. Each set of construction drawings uses a generic window sizing system that does not apply to any particular brand of windows. For example, a common size seen on our plans is 2860. This is a window that is 32″ wide and 72″ tall (2′-8″ x 6′-0″). This is also the standard system used to identify the size of doors. A door labeled 2868 is a standard 6′ 8″ tall door that is 2′ 8″ wide.
