The best unit to measure the height of a house would be meters. Meters are commonly used for measuring the height of buildings and structures due to their practicality and ease of understanding. Centimeters would be too small a unit for measuring the height of a house, while decimeters and kilometers would be too large for this purpose.
kilometers
Height is measured in meters, the same as length or distance.
You cannot measure height by using volume. You need to measure in units of length like centimeters or inches or feet.
Meters or rarely centimeters.
Inches or Centimeters would be small enough to measure a teacup.
It takes more centimeters. One decimeter is ten centimeters.
A tall swimmer would give his height in centimeters. Kilometers are used to measure long distances, while centimeters are used to measure height and length on a smaller scale.
decimeters
No, measuring a person's height in kilometers is not practical. Kilometers are typically used to measure longer distances, while a person's height is more accurately measured in centimeters or meters.

With a tape measure.
A hand is a unit of measurement that is typically used with horses. A hand is equivalent to four inches. To measure the height of a horse, measure from the top of the withers (high point where the mane starts on the back) down to their legs.
The most reasonable measure for the height of a door in the metric system is typically in centimeters or meters. A standard door height is around 200 centimeters (2 meters).
centimeters
The simplest way is to measure it using a metric measure tape. An alternative is to measure your height in inches and multiply the answer by 2.54
Multiply it by 100: 1.58 meters = 158 centimeters
It turns out that decimeters are seldom used in practice. Instead, millimeters, centimeters and meters are normally used. Of course, in theory you could measure any length in decimeters - and especially lengths which are in an appropriate range, somewhere between about 1-100 decimeters.
