Why should I consider the IKEA kitchen measuring service?

At IKEA, we first recommend that you measure their kitchen themselves, and we provide support for that. However, there are times when you may not be able to measure it yourself for various reasons. In such cases, you can use our paid Kitchen Measurement Service, where an experienced professional will visit your home to accurately measure your kitchen space and record all the necessary information.

The easiest and most cost-effective way to measure your kitchen is to do it yourself. IKEA provides the video "IKEA Kitchen Buying Steps: Installation" to make this process as easy as possible. You can also use the "DIY Guide for Kitchen Installation" (Only Japanese available) to have on hand for reference while measuring.
If you find it difficult to measure yourself, please use IKEA's Kitchen Measurement Service.
