Cellular Black Dimout Electric Blind
Help with measuring your electric cellular blind
Before recording your measurements, please follow these simple steps to ensure your powered blind is an exact fit: 1. Use a metal tape measure for accurate measurements. 2. Make sure you have a pen and paper ready to record your measurements in centimeters (see below to download our measurement templates). 3. Take into account any obstructions such as window handles or tiles, etc.
Inside Recess FitTake three measurements across the width and height of the recess and use the shortest measurements recorded. Don't make any allowances for the headrail - we will fabricate your powered roman blind based on your measurements and allow a 5mm clearance gap at either side to ensure the blind operates smoothly.![]() |
Outside Recess FitBefore taking your measurements, you must decide on how much fabric overlap you would like over the window recess. Take this into account when recording your measurements.![]() |
