In this guide we start with the room rather than the furniture, showing you how to measure the dining area, allow for clearance around chairs and benches, and calculate the largest table your space can comfortably hold. We then explain how to size the bench itself, including how much shorter it should be than the table, how much seat length each person needs and the ideal gap between the seat and the underside of the table top. We also look at bench depth, the way different table bases affect fit, and the simple trick of marking everything out on the floor with masking tape before you buy. Finally, we cover planning for guests with an extending table, the most common measuring mistakes and how to check access for delivery."}
