Overview & Capabilities

Converting feet to inches translates room spans into exact shop numbers for custom millwork, countertop fabrication, and subway tile grids. Because cabinetry makers and countertop fabricators quote jobs in whole inches rather than mixed feet, converting a 10-foot galley kitchen (120 inches) or 3-foot base island (36 inches) prevents installation gaps and costly miscuts. Multiplying feet by 12 yields whole inches.
