I like the idea of sticking the bike in a corner, making sure it's straight, then marking stuff on the wall.

Borrow a laser level from someone if you can, makes it easy to replicate saddle behind bb distance, get that + saddle height correct and then it’s easy to match the front end - don’t worry about bar reach etc just measure to the contact points and adjust stem length based on those if needed

Saddle the same on both? If so mark the exact middle of rails measured and distance to top of saddle through that dot is your saddle height. Measuring setback can be tricky if walls are wonky etc so an easier way is to put the back of non-drive side crank against a door jamb or something and then measure as it’s a much shorter distance (plus doesn’t matter about chainstay length/tyre diameter). Then just add on distance from back of nds crank to centre of bb

I’d get bike fitter matey to do it…

just had a professional bike fit - which was great. i now want to transfer the measurements from my summer bike to winter bike.... the stack and reach is the same but a2c is slightly different. also want to make sure i get the saddle height and setback just right...
leaving ego at the door - any tips or online guides? obv i can measure stuff but want to make sure i get the actual measuring points right. i also think the bars on my winter bike have a slightly shorter reach so want to be cognisant of that and potentially swap them out
