According to the Torah, the Ark was 2.5 cubits long and 1.5 cubits in both width and height. If we assume that "cubit" refers to the Egyptian Cubit (the Hebrews were fleeing from Egypt where they had spent many years in slavery - so it's a safe bet that the measurements are indeed given in Egyptian Cubits) this would be about 1.30metres long and 0.78metres wide and high (which is about four feet and three inches by two feet and eight inches).
