How to Measure
Measuring windows for blinds installation is a very simple and non-time consuming process. Every identical window may vary in size, you should measure each window individually to avoid mistakes.
 Please follow the guidelines below carefully before measuring windows for blinds:
• Always use a measuring tape for accuracy.
• Decide if your blinds will be installed inside or outside of the window frame.
• The position of handles, bars or tiles and the depth of a window can affect the fit of the blinds.
Always take these into account when determining the fit.
• When measuring, round off to the nearest inches ( " ).
• Always indicate the WIDTH, followed by the DROP (W x D).
• Please ensure that all measurements are accurate for an exact fit.
