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!

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

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.
