Measuring Guide for Monitors and Laptops

Instructions to correctly measure your screen to find the right-sized product for your device.

For tablets and smartphones or to search by device brand and model, try our Product Finder.

Step 1: Determine screen type.

First, determine if your device has a raised bezel or a flat front glass screen.

  • Example of a bezel
    Raised Bezel

    These screens have a raised frame around the edges.

  • Example of a flat front glass screen
    Flat Front Glass
    These screens have edge-to-edge glass without a raised frame.

Step 2: Measure your screen.

Next, measure your screen according to the screen type you have.

    Measure the height (h) and width (w) of the screen's viewable area, making sure to measure within the bezel.

    Measure the height (h) and width (w) of the entire glass display, making sure to measure all the way from edge-to-edge.


Step 3: Find your product.

Finally, select your height (h) and width (w) measurements in the dropdown menu to populate the chart below.

Can't find your exact measurements? Best fit tip: Select a filter that is smaller, yet closest to your measurements. If you're buying a 3M™ Framed Privacy Filter, select a filter that is larger, yet closest to your measurements.
