Slightly more than a yard

I believe the answer is:

meter

(Other definitions for meter that I've seen before include "Device for measuring and recording" , "Instrument for measuring quantity" , "Measuring device, say for electricity usage" , "Measuring device as for electricity usage (5)" , "Something measuring" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
