Shimmer Zinc Replacement Vertical Blind Slats

Whether your vertical blinds open from the middle outwards or to one side, count the number of slats in total on the blind, then follow the measuring instructions. 

If you have more than one window at the same fabric drop, add the number of slats together for the windows and order as one set which will save money. When they are delivered the salts will be grouped together but you can separate the quantity for each window as required. 

Measuring replacement slats for vertical blinds couldn’t be simpler.

1) Take a slat/louvre down from the current blind you have and lay it on a table or on the floor, making sure the slat is flat. You can order in cm, mm, or inches.

2) Measure the width of the slat, it will be either 89mm (3.5”) or 127mm (5”) wide. All fabrics are available in 89mm. 127mm widths are less common, so please make sure you select that size from the filter to ensure you are choosing the available fabrics, then select 127mm during the ordering process.

3) Measure from the top of the fabric to the bottom of the fabric as illustrated below and enter this size when ordering. Do not include the hook of the hanger in your measurement. This is called Fabric Size.

4) Count how many slats are required for each window.

5) Decide which bottom weight option you require. You can choose from white weights & chain, beige weights and chain or sewn in weights with no chain.

TOP TIP:

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE WINDOWS WITH EXACTLY THE SAME DROP, GROUP THE QUANTITIES TOGETHER AND ORDER AS 1 SET, THIS IS CHEAPER THAN ORDERING AS SEPARATE WINDOWS
