Essential Guide to Laptop Dimensions for the Perfect Box Fit

Understanding Laptop Internal Dimensions

Laptop dimensions refer to the physical size and shape of a laptop, including its screen size, width, height, and depth. The dimensions of the laptop will affect the portability and the size of the laptop boxes, so it’s important to double check your measurements before ordering your box.

For your laptop to fit in one of our boxes it’s important to order a box that is a few millimeters larger than the laptop’s dimensions.

Common laptop dimensions range from 11 to 17 inches, with varying widths, heights, and depths. Our boxes are sized in millimetres so we’ve included a table that shows cross sections inches and the recommended box size for each.

Please make sure you measure your laptop’s dimensions accurately as this is essential for finding the right sized box. This table is a guide only and so we’d recommend getting in touch to make sure that the box size that you’re choosing is the right size for your product.

You can customise the size of your box on our custom box builder page.

Choosing the Right Laptop Box for Your Laptop Size

Ensuring the safe transportation of your laptop starts with selecting the perfect laptop box. Here’s how you can find the ideal fit for your device:

1. Measure Your Laptop: Begin by accurately measuring your laptop’s dimensions, including its length, width, and height. This will help you determine the ideal box size.
2. Consider Screen Size: Take into account your laptop’s diagonal screen measurement in inches. This can be a helpful reference when selecting the correct box size.
3. Use Conversion Tools: Our website offers a handy conversion list to help you convert inches to millimeters, making it easier to find the right box.
4. Add Extra Space: When measuring, add 5 mm to each dimension to ensure a snug fit and adequate protection. This extra space allows for cushioning materials.
5. Choose a Slightly Larger Box: For delicate items like laptops, it’s wise to choose a box that is slightly larger than the laptop’s dimensions. This provides room for protective materials.
6. Check Internal Dimensions: Remember, box sizes are based on internal dimensions. Always check the specifications before making a purchase to ensure a proper fit.
7. Consider Average Height: The average laptop is approximately 1.25 inches tall. Keep this in mind when selecting a box to ensure it accommodates the height of your device.
8. Opt for the 0427 Range: Boxes in the 0427 range typically have sufficient height for laptops. However, you can also opt for custom-made boxes to fit your specific product exactly.
9. Use Protective Materials: Don’t forget to add protective materials, such as bubble wrap, to pad out the box. This ensures a secure fit and protects your laptop during transit.

By following these steps, you can choose the right laptop box for your laptop size and ensure safe and secure shipping.
