How to Measure Face Fit Full Blockout Cassette/Roller Blind without Architraves
Important steps to follow when measuring Face Fit Blinds without architraves
Print out Blinds Downunder measuring form or download Blinds Downunder measuring form, which is editable for computer or devices, from our website to document blind measurements and details.
Use a metal tape measure. Make sure the tape measure is taught when taking measurements.
Always write down the width measurement first and then the drop measurement second on all blinds. Add 100mm extra on both the actual width and 151mm to the drop measurement. This is to allow for potential fixing into timber or steel studs. (*Note there is no guarantee of fixings for blinds with this scenario. Check for fixings prior to ordering). You may wish to add more depending on your desired outcome.(See Diagram at bottom of page)
Only write measurements down in millimetres.
Write down the preferred motor side on each individual blind.
Document the largest measurement of three spot measurements for width and drop.
Always double check measurements with the measurements you have written down.
Watch for protruding door/window hardware that might interfere with blind operation.
