Measuring instructions electric roller blinds
Recess
Measure the wall to wall width at the top of the recess and the drop from the top recess to the window sill.
Do not make any deductions, we will deduct approximately 5mm during manufacture from the width to ensure a comfortable fit.
You can order in inches, cm or mm.
Bracket to Bracket
Measure the existing blind brackets from the outside of the left one to the outside of the right one.
The blind will be made to these exact sizes. The fabric width will be approximately 35mm narrower than the size given.
You can order in inches, cm or mm.
Fabric
Measure the width and drop of the existing roller blind fabric.
The electric roller blind fabric will be made to these exact sizes. The overall blind size including brackets will be approximately 35mm wider than the size given.
You can order in inches, cm or mm.
Part Tiled Recesses
Measure the full width at the top of the recess then the width between the tiles.
If the difference is less than 25mm as it will be in most cases then use the measurement at the top as there will be enough clearance for the fabric and order as recess size.
e.g.
Roller blind fabric is approximately 35mm narrower than the overall width of the blind including brackets.
Top Recess - Tile Recess Difference: Less Than 25mm
Top recess width: 1000mm
Tile recess width: 975mm
Difference: 25mm
Order blind Recess Size 1000mm as fabric width will be 965mm
Top Recess - Tile Recess Difference: More Than 35mm
Top recess width: 1000mm
Tile recess width: 965mm
Difference: 35mm
Order blind Recess Size 985mm as fabric width will be 950mm
N.B. THE WIDTH OF THE FABRIC WILL BE ABOUT 35MM NARROWER THAN THE OVERALL BRACKET TO BRACKET SIZE OF THE BLIND
