Configuration
Before you begin
A key step before you start measuring is whether you would like your blinds inside the window frames (known as recess fit) or outside (known as face fit).
Measure - Face fit
Measuring the width:
Measure the exact width of
architrave.
Note:
Add 50-100mm on both sides.
Measuring the drop:
Measure the drop from the top of architrave to where you would like the blind to finish.
Finish to the floor:
We recommend measuring 10mm above the floor.
Finish above the floor:
We recommend measuring
50-100mm past the sill.
Measure - Recess fit
There is a minimum depth requirement for vertical blinds.
- 135mm of depth for a 127mm slat
- 100mm depth for 89mm slats
If you do not have enough depth, we advise for face fit.
Measuring the depth:
Before selecting recess fit, make sure you have the minimum
depths for your blind type.
Measuring the width:
Measure the exact inside width in three different positions – the top, middle & bottom (do not make deductions).
Note:
Take the smallest measurement.
Measuring the drop:
Measure the exact inside recess height from the top to the bottom of the windowsill in three positions – the left, middle, & right.
Note:
Take the smallest measurement.
