Blinds are a great way to control the amount of natural light that enters a room while also offering privacy and adding style to your home. However, in order for blinds to work effectively, it is important to measure your windows accurately to ensure a perfect fit. In this article, we will discuss the steps you need to take to measure for blinds.
The first step in measuring for blinds is to decide whether you want an inside or outside mount. An inside mount is when the blinds are installed inside the window frame, while an outside mount is when the blinds are installed outside the window frame. To determine which type of mount is best for your windows, consider the depth of your window frame and the amount of space you have available.
If you decide on an inside mount, start by measuring the width of the window at the top, middle, and bottom. Use the smallest measurement to ensure that the blinds will fit properly. Next, measure the height of the window at the left, center, and right sides. Again, use the smallest measurement to determine the height of the blinds.
For an outside mount, measure the width of the window frame and add a few inches on each side to allow for overlap. Next, measure the height from where you want the blinds to start to where you want them to end. Be sure to add a few inches to the height measurement as well to ensure complete coverage.
When measuring for blinds, it is important to use a steel measuring tape for accuracy. Avoid using a cloth tape measure, as it can easily stretch and give inaccurate measurements.
In addition, make sure to double-check all of your measurements before ordering blinds. Remember that it is always better to measure twice and order once, rather than having to deal with blinds that do not fit properly.
If you are unsure about the measuring process, many blind manufacturers offer measuring guides on their websites or have customer service representatives available to assist you.
In conclusion, measuring for blinds is an essential step in ensuring a perfect fit and a polished look for your windows. By following these simple steps and taking accurate measurements, you can easily determine the size of blinds you need for your home. So, whether you choose to measure for an inside or outside mount, be sure to measure carefully and accurately to achieve the perfect fit for your blinds.
