Getting Starting with Measuring

• Remember that PRECISION PAYS!
• All of Blindsaver.com's window fashions are custom fabricated according to the dimensions given on your order.
• Measurements must be exact to ensure a proper fit. For this reason measure to the nearest 1/8".
• Always measure the exact window intended for the blind. Every window in your home is a unique opening and may differ in exact measurements.
• For accurate measurements always use a 3/4" or 1" steel tape measure.
• To eliminate mistakes first measure the width and write it down then measure the height and write it down.
• Do not take any deductions for mounting clearance on inside mounts. Deductions will be taken by the manufacturers at the factory.
• Careful attention must be given to each measurement but measurements that pertain to the mounting areas (headrails) are critical and must be accurate.
• Please read the rest of our measuring guides for specific measuring instructions. Links can be found on the left menu bar under Measuring Guides.
