the description of this tape indicates metric markings on both edges. does it have markings on the backside of the tape? if yes, on both edges? thx.

No markings on the backside. Has metric on both edges on top side. Has 16 inch stud spacing down the middle on topside. 16,32,48,64 etc. I like for metric reading, no English markings in the way.

What’s the total length

16ft in English and 5 meters in the rest of the world, unless you was born in the UK before the change over then you know both measurements and flit between the two.

is there a 160mm on the tape?

At the 32mm marks there are little black dots, so 32,64,96,128,160 and so on. In the middle of the tape the makings are 16, 32, 48, 64, 80,96 (") and so on to the end of tape. Also in the middle of tape is markings at 878 which say True 32 base cabinet height, 1390 True 32 upper cabinet bottom position, 2158 True 32 top of upper positionfor 768mm upper cabinet, 2286 True32 top of upper positionfor 896mm upper cabinet, 2414 True 32 top of upper position for 1024mm upper cabinet and that's it I think.

I am getting glasses online and all measurements are in mm. Will this tape measure work?

I wear glasses and I LOVE this tape -- and millimeters, too. I see no reason anyone with corrected near vision cannot use this tape.
