***always use a metal tape for accuracy - cloth or plastic can stretch***  Inside Recess
For blinds fitting within a recess, measure the width at 3 different places; the top, the middle and the bottom and give us the narrowest dimension. Remember on roller blinds the fabric is narrower at the bottom than the brackets are at the top, so this may not be necessary. Do the same for the drop. We will always make a slight deduction from inside recess measurements, to ensure the blinds fit nicely within the recess. See the individual blind types below for more information.
 Outside Recess
For blinds fitting outside the recess we suggest you make the blind 20cm wider than the window (10cm either side) and 7.5cm higher. However this is purely a recommendation and you can make it wider or smaller, longer or shorter depending on your circumstances, every blind we make is made to measure just for you! Remember it's just as important to be accurate on the drop measurement as the width, especially on Romans, Venetians, Verticals and Sliding Panels.
Bay Windows
These can vary dramatically, from 3 windows sitting at 90 degrees to each other, to 5 or more at varying angles. If there is a dividing pillar between the windows simply measure as you would normally (see above). However if the windows/blinds meet at the angles an extra deduction has to be taken, to ensure that the blinds won't get in the way of each other. If you aren't sure or there is no dividing pillar please contact us for more information or advice on 01843 608789 or email
