After having a terrible experience with ordering a custom blind from a local major dept. store (sent wrong size, poor quality for price, uneven dye in fabric) I was thrilled to have such great service and quality from Selectblinds. I will definitely purchase from you folks again!

Measuring Instructions for Roman Shades

All roman shades except Fusion
Width
  • Measure the exact width (left to right) of the inside edge of the window frame in three places (top, middle and bottom).
  • Take the smallest of the three measurements.
  • Write down that size making sure that it is the first number of the measurement. This is the width you will order.
  • Factory will deduct 3/8" on all inside mount orders to ensure a proper fit.
Height
  • Measure the exact height (top to bottom) from the top inside edge down to the window sill in three places.
  • Take the largest of the three measurements.
  • Write down that size making sure that it is the second number of the measurement. This is the height you will order.
  • Multiple shades with different lengths may not have the same size pleats. It is always recommended to order all shades using the longest length in the room.
Fusion Shades
Width
  • Measure the exact width (left to right) of the inside edge of the window frame in three places (top, middle and bottom).
  • Take the smallest of the three measurements.
  • Write down that size making sure that it is the first number of the measurement. This is the width you will order.
  • *Finished dimension for shade will be 3/8" less ordered width.
  • If Valance is ordered, it will be 1/8" less ordered width. Must have 3 ½" depth for flush mount.
Height
  • Measure the exact height (top to bottom) from the top inside edge down to the window sill in three places.
  • Take the largest of the three measurements.
  • Write down that size making sure that it is the second number of the measurement. This is the height you will order.
  • Height may vary by 1/8" – 1 ½" longer than ordered drop.

*width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8"


All roman shades except Fusion
Width
  • Measure the exact width (left to right) of the wooden or metal window frame or how wide you would like the blind or shade to be.
  • Make sure to measure wide enough as to cover the entire window and provide maximum light gap coverage. Example: If the window opening is 36", it might be helpful to order 40". This will provide 2" coverage on each side of the window.
  • There is no rule on the width of blinds other than to make sure that it is wide enough to cover the opening.
  • Write down that size making sure that it is the first number of the measurement. This is the width you will order.
Height
  • Measure the height you would like the blind to be by measuring top to bottom.
  • We recommend adding about 3 or 4 inches to this number to insure maximum light gap coverage and to cover the window completely.
  • Please be sure to know that the height measurement will always include the headrail. Example: if the height ordered is 50" this will be the height including the headrail (from the very top of the headrail to the bottom rail).
  • You will want to mount the headrail above the window frame. Please make a note that some windows have trim that might interfere with mounting so it's important to measure above the trim if this is the case.
  • Multiple shade orders of different heights may not have the same size pleats. It is always recommended to order all shades using the longest length in the room.
*width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8"
