Spirit Levels

From compact levels for detailed work through to 150cm, 180cm, 183cm, 200cm and 244cm spirit levels, plus extendable models reaching more than 3 metres, there is a level for building, bricklaying, carpentry, joinery, plastering, tiling and general site work.

Long Spirit Levels

A long spirit level gives you a longer reference point when checking walls, frames, doors, floors and other larger surfaces. For many building and installation jobs, a longer level can make it easier to identify changes in level or plumb across a wider area.

Plywood Etc stocks professional spirit levels in a range of long lengths, including 150cm, 180cm, 183cm, 200cm and 244cm options. We also offer extendable spirit levels for applications where you need additional reach without carrying a permanently oversized level.

Choose the Right Spirit Level Length

Magnetic Spirit Levels

A magnetic spirit level can be useful when working with steel, metal frames and other ferrous surfaces. Magnetic models can help keep the level positioned against the workpiece while you make adjustments or carry out alignment checks.

Our range includes professional Stabila magnetic spirit levels in several lengths, making it possible to choose between compact magnetic levels and longer models for larger steelwork and construction applications.

Spirit Levels for Builders & Trades

The right spirit level depends on the work being carried out. Bricklayers and builders often need a robust level capable of repeated use on site, while carpenters, joiners, plasterers, tilers and installers may need a combination of different lengths for different jobs.

How Long Should a Spirit Level Be?

There is no single best length for every job. A shorter spirit level is easier to use in confined areas, whereas a longer level provides a longer reference across a wall, frame or other surface.

For general trade work, a selection of sizes can be useful. A shorter level handles smaller jobs, while a 150cm, 180cm or 2m spirit level can be more suitable when checking larger surfaces. For particularly long applications, an extendable spirit level provides additional reach.
