Measuring Instructions
Depending on the installation situation there are different ways of measuring the blinds- see below measuring instructions for different blind - and installation types.
F1 and F3 cord operated blinds
Fitted in glass bead- frame OR in between reveals ("inside fit")
The size B (width) and the size A (Height) are sizes for the clear opening. The blind size (the size you enter when ordering the blind) depends on the kind of frame. If you have got a 90 deg. rebate, deduct 5mm from to clear opening to get the blind size. If the rebate is bevelled, enter the clear opening size as the blind size.
If measuring in tilt & turn windows:
F1 and F3 cord operated blinds
Fitted to wall ("outside or face- fit"), using L-brackets
Please take into account the window hinges and handles. If brackets are used for fitting the overlap (x) should be at least 2cm.
Order width = wall opening width + desired overlap
Order height = wall opening height + desired overhang
VS1 and VS3- handle operated blinds
Fitted in glass bead- frame OR in between reveals ("inside fit")
The size W (width) and the size H (Height) are sizes for the clear opening. The blind size (the size you enter when ordering the blind) depends on the kind of frame. If you have got a 90 deg. rebate, deduct 5mm from to clear opening to get the blind size. If the rebate is bevelled, enter the clear opening size as the blind size.
If measuring in tilt & turn windows:
VS2- handle operated blinds
Fitted in glass bead- frame OR in between reveals ("inside fit")
The size B (Width) and the size H (Height) are the clear opening sizes of the window. The blind size, which is the order size, depends on the kind of window frame. If the window frame has got a square edge, please deduct 5mm from the clear opening width. If the window frame has got a bevelled edge, the clear opening size is the order size.
If measuring in tilt & turn windows:
VS1, VS2, VS3 - handle operated blinds
Fitted to wall ("outside or face fit") -using L- brackets
Please take into account the window hinges and handles. If brackets are used for fitting the overlap (x) should be at least 2cm.
