Roof box with handle sizes
A roof box with handle is a tall carry carton: a steep roof on top and two flat plates with a hand hole that meet above it as the handle. Nobody sells this shape from a stock list, it is made to order, so the size comes from what goes in. Here is how to work it out.
Starting size
| For | Length × width × height | Dieline |
|---|---|---|
| Starting size A small bottle, a jar or a gift |
100 × 50 × 151 mm 3.9 × 2.0 × 5.9 |

A template size, not a standard. Change the three numbers to fit your product.
How to measure
- Length: side to side, along the handle, crease to crease.
- Width: front to back, across the narrow side.
- Height: the walls only, from the bottom to where the roof starts. The product should fit under this line.
- Add 1–2 mm to each size, so the product goes in without rubbing.
How tall is the top?
The roof and the handle follow the width, not the height. The roof rises about 0.87 times the width above the walls, and the handle stands one more width above the roof. A box 50 mm wide gets a roof 43 mm high and a handle 50 mm tall; at 70 mm wide they are 61 mm and 70 mm. The handle is also longer than the box: it sticks out half a width past each end. Leave room for that on the shelf and in the shipping carton.
The hand hole is 20 mm high and 25 mm shorter than the box is long, up to 120 mm. A box under 110 mm long has a hole for two or three fingers, not a whole hand.
Which board?
The default is 0.5 mm paperboard, which suits sweets, tea or a light gift. For a bottle or a jar pick E flute (1.5 mm) or B flute (about 3 mm). The board doesn't change the sizes you enter: it only moves the relief cuts, the slot between the two handle plates and the bottom's flaps.
Which bottom?
The tuck flap closes by hand and is fine for light things. The 1-2-3 lock folds shut without glue and holds more. The glued bottom is the strongest: use it when the box is carried with something heavy inside.
