How To Measure For Your Blinds

Expert guides on how to measure for blinds and how to fit them to your windows. For either made to meaure or ready made blinds, it is crutial you measure and fit them correctly.

Measuring your windows is not a difficult task. Follow the instructions to ensure a good fit for your blinds. Please measure in centimeters all though inches are acceptable. Before you start to measure you must first decide whether you would like your blind to hang inside or outside the window recess

Measuring for Inside Recess Fitting

Measure in 3 Places - Measure the window recess in 3 places for both width and drop and choose the smallest measurement of the recess.
Do not make any deductions - as you have measured for inside recess we will make the deductions so your blind will fit perfectly.
When Ordering - When placing your order you will enter the smallest measurements for width and drop into our website and choose the "Recess" option as you have measured for a recess fitting
Top Tip- always use a quality steel tape measure for accurate measuring.

Measuring for Outside Recess Fitting

Measure as of below if you want your blind to hang outside the window recess so it overlaps the window.

Measure the exact width of the area whereyou would like the blind to cover and we recommend to overlap by 6 cm extra on both sides and 7 cm at the top to allowfor overlap .
The overlap at the bottom- would be up to yourself as it is personal choice on where you want the bottom of the blind to finish.
When Ordering -When placing your order you will enter the measurements you require for the width and drop into our website and choose the "Exact Blind Size" option as you have measured and want your blind to be made to your exact sizes. Remember you are ordering a Blind so the full product bracket to bracket not just the fabric part of the blind.
Top Tip- always use a quality steel tape measure for accurate measuring.

How To Measure For Perfect Fit Conservatory Blinds

Firstly before you measure up your windows for perfect blinds you must first make sure you have about 6mm space around your window frame for the perfect fit framing to fit around the window. So keep you eye out for anything that may prevent the framing from going around the window such as door locks or handles, as long as you have 6mm gap all the way around it will be fine.

Then check the seals of your window frame dont protrude over the glass by more than 3mm. Then take a measurement of the depth of the beading seal to see what size brackets you would need which would be 20mm, 24mm and 30mm bracket sizes to choose from.

Lastly measure your windows this is the glass size you need, measure from one side of the glass to the other and again for the drop, remember only measure the size of the glass thats all you need to do.

Beverley Nalder, Grimsby

Wilsons Blinds offer a five star+ service and product. The website is very user friendly and all blinds come accurately measured to the order given. It was refreshing to find a blind company on the internet honest enough to provide their pricing policy upfront and with an immediate price given for each blind as soon as you input the measurements. The blinds are great value and rest assured, you will not lose out on quality because of the price. They offer a prompt delivery service with excellent care taken in the packaging of the blinds for carriage. I would say to anyone, as a customer who was impressed from start to finish, don't hesitate and place your order now!

Tracey Denny, Devon

I bought two of these blinds with tape ladders and they look stunning. The quality is excellent. I am very happy with my purchase. I have bought blinds from this company before, and that is why I used them again.

Tracey, Reading

have had six blinds made over the last year at different times. Wilson blinds are very good to deal with and always communicate well with you regarding your order. I have not had any problems with orders or with blinds and they always turn out perfect. I will be ordering from them in future as I have a few more windows to do. Would highly recommend this company. Tracey - Reading

Harvey Maycock, Somerset

Having selected the fabric from the range of swatches, everything went like clockwork. The website was easy to use. The blind turned up on the 5th working day after ordering. It's exactly as measured and looks good quality. I have one small piece of feedback - having ordered the spring-loaded mechanism, I confess I was expecting it to be less aggressive in action. Perhaps I should have shopped around for the words "soft-action"?

Mrs E Killeen, Bromley

Would highly recommend this company. Samples arrived the next day, blind arrived within 5 days. Perfect fit. Very helpful and friendly staff on the telephone. Thank you.

D.B.Williams, Kent

The product supplied was first class and at the right price. One minor glitch that I had was dealt with very quickly and solved the problem immediately. Thank you again,will recommend you to all my friends. David Williams.

Lynne Brooks, Surrey

I found Wilson Blinds to be extremely helpful. We were ordering 3 blinds to fit in a recess so not straightforward but the blinds fit and look very stylish. I will as we decorate each room be ordering further blinds in the imminent future. One of the toggles sadly was broken in transit. I called Friday and a new toggle arrived today. :) Fantastic service. Overall 10/10

Ian Crosland, Oldham Lancashire

Once you've ordered before, running through different styles, ie, corded, colours etc, future orders become easy, fast delivery, easy to install, will be ordering again when other windows installed.

Ian Woolford, Barkshire

When we place the order I measured the window and door size just as the website showed how to do it the derlavrey was just as they had informed me the blinds where easy to install the quality of the product is of a high standard I would recommend company to all of our friends and the price of the products are very reasonable.

Susan Everest, West Sussex

We ordered a white wood-effect blind for our newly redecorated Study. It was made to measure and such good value we were keen to see the quality. We were not disappointed, in fact, we were extremely surprised and pleased with the product. It is excellent quality for the price and was a perfect fit for the window. Will definitely be getting all our blinds from Wilsons from now on :o).
