Reduce header height - Dawn Sjopify

Store Design

Topic summary

Issue: The OP needed to reduce the header height in Shopify’s Dawn theme v15. They had already trimmed the logo and set top/bottom padding to zero, but the header remained too tall.

Requests: Responders asked for the store URL and password to investigate.

Solution provided: Guidance to edit theme files—Online Store > Edit Code > open theme.liquid—and insert custom code just above the closing tag to reduce header height. A screenshot showed the result with a slimmer header.

Note: The exact code snippet isn’t visible in the thread extract, which may be central for replication.

Outcome: The OP confirmed the fix worked (“All sorted”). No further issues or debates were raised. The discussion appears resolved.

Good day,

I require assistance to reduce my header height in Dawn them 15 (I have already trimmed logo on top and bottom but still can’t get the header size reduced). I have also reduced the padding to zero on top and bottom.

Thanks in advance for assistance
