Measuring for Horizontal Blinds
Installation Measuring
Measurements (Measure the EXACT AREA to be covered to the nearest 1/8 of an inch.)

Inside Mount
Measure width of opening at top, middle, and bottom. Use the smallest measurement when ordering. Factory will deduct 1/2" from blind to provide operating clearance. Measure height of window opening of left, center, and right, using the longest measurement.

Inside Mount blinds are installed inside the window casing. Minimum depth requirements vary by product and headrail type from 2 1/2" - 4". You may need to order a shallow mount valance if your window will not accommodate the mounting hardware for flush inside mount. Call or e-mail us for information on specific products.

If the top measurement is wider than the smallest width of your window, please give us this size in special instructions on the order form. We will need to adjust the valance size sent.

Shallow Mount
Shallow mount blinds are installed inside the window casing where minimum depth requirement have accommodated for the brackets but, part of the headrail protrudes from the casing. In these cases the blinds are ordered as an inside mount but the valances are ordered as outside mount with returns of 1 1/2". Minimum depth required to mount the brackets is 7/8". The installer will need to adjust the valance returns on the job site. Please note this when ordering your blinds in the "Special Instructions" section on the order form. Call or e-mail us for specific details.

Outside Mount
Measure the width and height of the area to be covered. It is recommended that blinds overlap the window opening by at least 1" on each side or the width of the window sill. Add a minimum of 2" to height to allow for the head rail if mounting above trip or molding. Call or e-mail us for information on specific products.

NOTE: Standard deduction on a valance is 1/8" from ordered width of blind. If the width at the top of the window is larger than the ordered width of blind, please note on the order under instructions what size you want the valances made.
