How To Measure — Guidelines For A Perfect Fit
- Measure each window individually, as size variances are common.
- Record width first, then height.
- Measure to the nearest 1/8".
- Measure width from left to right, height from top to bottom,
using a steel tape measure. Do not use a cloth tape.
Inside Mount:
- Inside mount blinds and shades are installed inside the window casing.
Minimum depth requirements vary by product and brand. Ask your sales
consultant for details.
- Measure the exact inside width of the window casing from one inside edge
to the other in three (3) different places. Record the narrowest measurement.
- Measure the exact height in three (3) different places from top edge of
opening to top of sill. Record the longest measurement.
- Do not take any deductions for clearance.
(The factory will take necessary deductions for a perfect fit.)
Outside Mount:
- Outside mount blinds and shades are installed outside the window
casing, covering an area the same size or larger than the window itself.
- Measure the exact width of window including frame. A sales associate
may recommend an addition for overlap, depending on the product.
- Measure exact height of window from the top edge of molding to top
of the sill (if there is one) or to the bottom edge of frame. A sales
associate may recommend an addition for brackets or overlap, depending on
the product.
- The factory makes NO deductions on an outside mount.
There Is No Substitute For Quality -
Don't Settle for Second Best!
