Make sure your window has enough depth for an inside mount. For more details on the specific requirements, head over to the product’s information page and click on the "Specifications" tab.
Measuring the Width
- Begin by measuring the width of the window. Measure from left to right and measure at the top, middle, and then bottom of the window.
- Record the narrowest width of the three measurements down to the closest 1/8".
- If you are getting a 1/16" or 1/32" increment, round down to the nearest 1/8". (For example, if the narrowest measurement is 24 9/16", round down to 24 1/2". If it's 24 3/8", no need to round down.)
- This is the width you will need to order for your window.
Measuring the Height
- Measure the height from top to bottom, starting at the top left, then moving to the center, and then measuring from the top right to the window sill.
- Record the largest height out of the three measurements up to the closest 1/8".
- If you are getting a 1/16" or 1/32" increment, round up to the nearest 1/8". (For example, if the largest measurement is 24 9/16", round up to 24 5/8". If it's 24 1/2", no need to round up.)
- If you have several windows in a room that are all very similar in height, order all of them at the largest height to ensure similar pleat sizes.
We’ll handle any necessary deductions based on the measurements you provide, so there’s no need to adjust your own measurements. Don’t add to the width in anticipation of deductions. We’ve got it covered! If you’re looking for more light coverage, consider an outside mount.
Please review the deduction chart below that we’ll use when making your order. You do not need to take any additional deductions.
