Firstly, you need to decide where you want your blind to be fitted
Inside the window recess
Outside the window recess
How to measure inside the window recess:
Measure the width of the recess from wall to wall in 3 places. Note down the shortest measurement. (Remember to label this measurement width)
Measure the drop by taking the measurement from the top of the recess of the windowsill in 3 places
Measure the exact width of the window recess
Add 50mm onto this for Venetian, Roller and Pleated blinds
Add 100mm onto this for Vertical blinds (this is to make sure there are no gaps)
Note down the measurement. (Make sure to label this measurement width)
Measure the exact drop from top to bottom of the window recess
Add 50mm onto this for Venetian, Roller and Pleated blinds
Add 100mm onto this for Vertical blinds (this is to make sure there are no gaps)
Note down this measurement. (Make sure to label this measurement drop)
To obtain the measurements for Velux type blinds, we need the details of the window, which can be found on the data plate
In most cases the data plate is located on the top of the window sash and is only visible when the window is opened
If you’re having any problems finding this information, please give us a call and we’ll be happy to help
Take all of your measurements in millimetres (mm) this will give you a much more accurate measurement
While measuring make sure to look out for things like window handles and tiles taking into account their position if necessary. This is to ensure a perfect fit
