Handy Hints

All of our blinds are made-to-measure. Please follow the instructions carefully. Please make sure you take your measurements using a STEEL rule or tape.

Take all your measurements in millimetres (mm). Don't worry if you have your measurements in inches already; you can use our conversion calculator to convert them into cm. It couldn't be easier!

When measuring, always look out for things like window handles or tiles and take their position into account if necessary. This is so you can be sure of the perfect fit.

When taking measurements please follow this rule to help- "measure once, measure again and measure again"!

All our blinds can be fitted into the face of your window frame or wall, or into the top of the lintel. This gives you complete control over the positioning of your blind.
