Important Checks
Using a blunt butter style knife, carefully slide the blade behind the rubber gasket and as far behind the window frame as possible. The knife is used to replicate the thickness of the blind's installation bracket. If needed, apply a small amount of washing-up liquid or silicone polish to help the blade slide in more easily.
Check compatibility
Mark how far the knife blade travels behind the gasket, then measure the distance. If the blade inserts at least 17mm behind the gasket, your window is suitable for this blind type. Always take care when handling the knife during the test.
Measuring
To ensure the best possible fit we require accurate measurements for both width and drop of the window. Measure the full size of the visible glass between the gaskets. Order as glass size.
NB: The blind projects 32mm out from the glass to the front of the folded operating handle, important for bifold door operation.
Measuring the Width
Take two measurements of the width, at the top and the bottom of the window. If there is any variation always use the shortest width to order your blinds. If the windows are particularly large you can take intermediate measurements to check.
Measure the Drop
Take three measurements of the window drop. If there are any variations, then always use the longest measurements. You must measure accurately and to the nearest millimetre to ensure a good fit.
