Measuring your electric Venetian 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 centimetres (see below to
download our measurement templates).
3. Take into account any obstructions such as window handles or tiles, etc.

Inside Recess Fit

Take 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'll will deduct 13mm from your recess width measurements to allow a clearance gap at either side to ensure the blind operates smoothly.

Exact Fit

Before taking your measurements, you must decide on how much overlap you would like over the window recess.

Take this into account when recording your measurements (we recommend 5cm at either side of the window and 10cm above the window).

Select Measurement Type *

Measurement Type

RECESS size is the blind suppied to fit within your window recess.

BLIND WIDTH: Measure the recess width from left to right in three different places - at the top, middle and bottom. Make a note of the shortest measurement - this is your recess width.

BLIND HEIGHT: Measure the recess height from top to bottom in three different places - at the left, middle and right. Make a note of the shortest height - this is your recess height.

When ordering a Recess fit, we will make a 13mm reduction to your ordered width to ensure your blind fits perfectly, so there's no need for you to make any additional reductions to your measurement.

EXACT size is the maximum overall sizes of the finished blind.

BLIND WIDTH: Measure the full width you require the blind to cover - the blind will be supplied at the width ordered. If fitting outside the recess, include the amount of overlap required past your window on each side. When fitting outside the recess, we recommend a minimum of 5cm overlap at each side.

BLIND HEIGHT: Measure the full height you require the blind to cover - the blind will be supplied at the height ordered. If fitting outside the recess, include the amount of overlap required above and below your window (we recommend 10cm above the window). Remember to allow for any obstructions!
