Set up the base grid.
Choose a layout grid box size (in this case 6 unit boxes) to fit/suit a given application and overlay onto material.
Isolate the boxes which fit comfortably within the document removing the rest.
Center the layout grid to the document.
Set the base grid (InDesign's 'document grid') origin point to the top-left corner of the new layout grid.
