How To Measure Roman Blinds
Firstly you will need to decide how you want to mount the blinds.
Following are measuring instructions for various mounting positions. Please let us know which you have chosen when you request a quote.
Most frequently, Roman blinds are mounted on the wall above the window as in Fig 3.
This is more important if you have shorter windows. Otherwise a large portion of the glass will be covered.
Wall MountGenerally for blinds mounted on the wall, it is best if the distance above the window including the top architrave is about 230mm. That will allow for the bottom of the folds to sit roughly on the bottom edge of the top architrave . It can be a different height if you do not have enough room above the window. Please let us know if that is the case. It is very important that we know whether you have sent us the finished blind size OR the window size. If we do not know that you may end up with a blind that is not the ideal size. To work out the finished blind size: Work out where the to of the blind will sit & note that for when you finished blind is ready to install. Measure to the point where you would like the blind to finish. The width should be the total width of the window frame plus 60 - 80mm (30 - 40mm each side) If your sill sticks out at the side as in the diagram make sure the width you supply is 20mm wider than the sill (10mm each side). If you cannot work out the size: We can work this out for you, but we cannot do that unless you send us enough infiormation. Email us for more detailed instriuctions. |

Architrave MountTo mount a blind in this manner you will need a proper architrave of at least 40mm. When measuring for outside fitted blinds, measure in several places as for an inside fitted blind to ensure accuracy. See figure 2. |

Inside MountTo mount your blinds inside the frame the recess will need to be at least 40mm deep Also ensure there are no other parts of the window, or handles etc which will obstruct the operation of your blinds. Please send us the internal window size. Measure the exact width in millimeters across the top of the frame where the blind will be mounted. Check also at the centre and bottom to ensure the window frame is square. Measure the exact drop height in millimeters on both sides. See figure 1.
