Measuring
Accurately measuring your shades will ensure a custom fit for your selected window treatment. Follow the guidelines when measuring for your window shades.
Use a metal tape measure. Include measurements and selected mounting method with your shade order. All measurements have to be accurate to within 1/8th
of an inch. All measurements are in inches.
The easiest manner to measure for shades is, if you already have shades and are replacing them, is to use what you have. Measure and record the tip to tip.
We will duplicate this and they will fit the same way your existing shades fit.Measure height from top of roller to desired hem.
If you cannot or do not want to use existing shades from which to take measurements, you must measure the window. There are two most common ways to hang your shade: Outside Bracket Mounting (OB) and Inside Bracket Mounting (IB).
Inside Bracket Mounting is used when the window is recessed allowing the shade to be hung inside the window casement. Outside Bracket Mounting is used when there is insufficient room to hang a shade, or if you prefer, by design, to hang the shade outside the window frame. When specifying an (OB), be sure to allow clearance between the shade and mounting brackets as to not interfere with other window treatments (curtains, valences, etc.).
