Recess Fitting
If you want your blind to fit snugly inside the window recess, this is how to measure: take the full width and height of the recess (you can simply think of it as the size of the hole). We’ll then make precise deductions from these measurements to ensure a flawless, perfect fit for your space.
✓ Measure in 3 places for both the width and the drop,use the smallest measurements.
✓ No need to make any deductions yourself—we’ll handle that part to guarantee your blind fits perfectly.
✓ Opt for a metal tape measure—cloth versions may stretch, resulting in inaccurate measurements.
Tips for Recess Fitting
If your window recess has tiles covering part of its height (common in kitchens and bathrooms), the gap between those tiles is probably the narrowest spot in the recess.
Measure between the tiles to make sure your blind fits. In this situation, you’ll need to top-fix or face-fix the brackets.
Exact Fitting
If you want your blind to fit outside the window recess (with overlap on all sides), measure the recess first. Add a small extra amount to every side to make sure the blind offers sufficient coverage for the whole window.
✓ Measure the precise size of the area where you want the blind to overlap. To reduce light leakage as much as possible, we suggest the blind extends at least 70mm above the recess and 50mm on each side.
✓ The overlap at the bottom of the blind is a matter of personal choice but please take into account obstacles such as radiators.
✓ using a metal tape measure, as cloth tape measures are prone to stretching, leads to inaccurate measurements.
