I am not sure about your specific implementation, but I just write an example that maybe could helpful.

XAML

Code

Class MainWindow

    Public Shared ReadOnly WindowWidthProperty As DependencyProperty = _
                           DependencyProperty.Register("WindowWidth", _
                           GetType(Integer), GetType(MainWindow), _
                           New FrameworkPropertyMetadata(Nothing))

    Public Shared ReadOnly WindowHeightProperty As DependencyProperty = _
                         DependencyProperty.Register("WindowHeight", _
                         GetType(Integer), GetType(MainWindow), _
                         New FrameworkPropertyMetadata(Nothing))

    Public Property WindowWidth As Integer
        Get
            Return CInt(GetValue(WindowWidthProperty))
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            SetValue(WindowWidthProperty, value)
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Property WindowHeight As Integer
        Get
            Return CInt(GetValue(WindowHeightProperty))
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Integer)
            SetValue(WindowHeightProperty, value)
        End Set
    End Property


End Class

C# Code

public readonly DependencyProperty WindowWidthProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("WindowWidth", typeof(Double), typeof(MainWindow), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata());
public readonly DependencyProperty WindowHeightProperty = DependencyProperty.Register("WindowHeight", typeof(Double), typeof(MainWindow), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata());

public double WindowWidth {
    get { return Convert.ToDouble(this.GetValue(WindowWidthProperty)); }
    set { this.SetValue(WindowWidthProperty, value); }
}

public double WindowHeight {
    get { return Convert.ToDouble(this.GetValue(WindowHeightProperty)); }
    set { this.SetValue(WindowHeightProperty, value); }
}
