Measuring for fitting inside a Recess

First, ensure that the recess your blind is going into is not obstructed in any way so the blind can hang freely. Look out for protruding tiles, pipes, skirting boards etc.

Measure at the top, middle and bottom of the window recess and note down the smallest measurements to the nearest millimetre; this is called the Recess size.

We will make your blind slightly smaller to fit into the recess. There is no need for you to make any adjustments; we do this.
The recess allowance differs per product from 3-10mm 

If you want to make your own allowances order as ‘exact’ which is explained below.

Measuring for outside a recess or Exact

Decide how much you want to overlap the blind on all sides - we recommend this should be at least 50mm (2 inches) each side in most instances, or the exact size you want the blind to be, if fitting it inside a recess.

Carefully measure the at the top, middle and bottom for the width and the left, right and middle for the drop

Remember... on most blinds the fabric will be less than the overall width of the blind ordered. You should allow for this when measuring outside a recess.

We will then make your blind to your exact sizes. The blind in its brackets/headrail/cassette (widest point) will be supplied exactly to the size that has been ordered. This is called exact size, and subject to the normal manufacturer's working +/- tolerances.
