    How to Measure

    How to measure for roller blinds

     

    Selecting Recess/Fabric/Blind Size

    Please read the guide below and let us know which type of measurement you are providing:

    Recess Size

    Recess Size

    If you want to fit your blind within the window recess as shown above, please provide us with Recess Size measurements.

    To do this you will need to measure inside the window recess from wall to wall for the width and from ceiling to window sill for the drop.

    You should take the measurements three times to make sure you get the most accurate sizes - at the top, at the middle and at the bottom for the width and at the top, the middle and the right for the drop.

    The three sizes to give us are the smallest of the three measurements for both the width and the drop.

    Make sure you do not make any reductions from these sizes yourself. We'll make your blinds slightly smaller on the width than the sizes you give us to make sure that it fits into the space with enough room for it to be installed easily and so the brackets don't scrape the walls, while still covering as much of the window as possible. The adjustment size will differ depending on the type of blind you choose and whether you are adding a cassette to cover the roll - our team will be happy to confirm the reduction amount for you if you advise which blind you are ordering.

    Remember that the width of the fabric will always be slightly less than the total width of the blind to allow for the size of the mechanism and brackets - the difference is usually approximately 3.5cm.

    Fabric Size or Blind Size

    If you want to fit your blind outside of the window recess we recommend overlapping the window by at least 10cm on the width and 10cm on the drop.

    You can then specify whether you want us to use these measurements as the Fabric Size or the Blind Size.

    Fabric Size or Blind Size

    Fabric Size

    If you choose Fabric Size we will use your measurements as the size of the fabric part of the blind only. This means that the size of the brackets/mechanism/cassette will be in addition to the sizes you provide us - this is usually 3.5cm but our team will be happy to confirm the amount for you before ordering.

    Blind Size

    If you choose Blind Size we will use your measurements as the size of the total blind including the brackets and mechanism (and cassette if ordered). This means that the fabric part of the blind will be slightly smaller than the sizes you provide. The amount of difference varies depending on the type of blind ordered - it is usually 3.5cm but our team will be happy to confirm the amount for you before ordering.

    Roll Direction

    We offer a choice of roll direction on this blind as illustrated below:

     

    Standard Roll

    Standard Roll

    The fabric will roll off the back of the roller tube towards the window, so the backing of the fabric is visible.

     

    Reverse Roll

    Reverse Roll

    The fabric will roll off the front of the roller tube towards the room, so the backing of the fabric is not visible.

    A perfect solution for rooms on street level where you wish to block the gaze of nosey onlookers without losing all the natural light, our clever bottom up blind system can be raised and lowered as needed and stopped at any position. Giving you ultimate flexibility over the amount of light entering your room, this blind is made from a blackout fabric that offers complete privacy and allows no light to penetrate through the material making it an ideal choice for bedrooms and nurseries. It can also be used to great effect in areas such as cinema rooms or boardrooms where blocking daylight is key to preventing screen glare or seeing a projection clearly. Available in a range of attractive colours from neutrals to pastels to brights; you're sure to find a shade to suit your space.

    How it works:


    • As the name suggests the fabric pulls upwards from a cassette at the bottom of the window via a pulley system that allows you to stop the blind at any position.

    • Our system comes with a smart 7cm tall curved cassette that sits at the bottom of the window, with brushes where the fabric exits to keep the material clean and protected to preserve your investment.

    • The cassette is made from aluminium and painted white so it blends seemlessly into any room.

    Gecko Blackout Bottom Up Roller Blind

    Blind Features:


    • 7cm curved cassette to stop dust entering the blind to keep the fabric clean.

    • The blind is tension sprung to ensure fabric remains flat.

    • This blind can be stopped and tied off via a cleat at any point on the window.

    • The blind pulls up from the bottom of the window.

    • It can be fixed to the window sill or face fixed to the wall below the window if no sill is available.

    • The aluminium cassette is supplied in a clean, white finish to suit any room.

    The ordering was easy, blinds as described and delivered within the given timeframe. Instructions inside didn't match the product, but a quick youtube search helped with installation.

    I ordered two blinds, one was 5mm short of measurements supplied. No instructions for fitting were supplied, had to figure them out. If details of fitting had been shown when ordered i would have made changes to the order.

    Really pleased with my blind. Great quality and arrived quickly. I hadn't seen the design anywhere else and it was exactly what I was looking for. I found the online measuring guide really helpful. I would definitely use Order Blinds again in the future.

    We are very pleased with our blind but found the chane kept breaking. Understand what the chain has a safety catch but as this was a large heavy blind we had to but some clips to make it more secure.

    My order was a Lorna Syson fabric roller blind. It is lovely and beautifully made. The order was swift and accurate. My only regret is that I didn't have a reverse roll direction. This was my fault and it would have looked so much better with the fabric covering the actual roller mechanism, rather than it showing the plain white lining. I will definitely order from them again.

    Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad you're happy with the quality of your blind. Regarding the roll direction, our customer service team will reach out to you via email, as you can send the blind back to have it adjusted to a reverse roll. We're happy to assist and ensure everything is just right for you!

    I am very pleased with the blinds, however, on their website you can choose standard or reverse roll but it does not make it clear what these mean, ie standard was from the back & reverse from the front!! which I only found out once they were delivered, I was under the impression that reverse roll would be from the back of the blind (which is what I wanted). Very disappointed with the Courier that was used, they gave me three dates for my delivery a Friday, then Monday & then Tuesday. They were then delivered on the Tuesday. I do not know if I would use them again due to courier issues & the standard & reverse rolls. Quality of blinds very nice though.

    The blinds received were of very good quality and the order was processed very quickly considering they were manufactured to order. My criticism is more for the attention of Order Blinds as they have made some changes to what you receive since we last used them. They now supply a "U" shaped clip to retain the cord and chain which is secured by two sticky pads, where previously they supplied a "P" clip which is secured by a screw. Whilst the new retainer is much easier to fix it is useless to someone like me who removes the blinds for decorating, I purchased new "P" clips to replace the ones supplied. They also supplied two type of fixing clips/brackets one for mounting from above the other a much more substantial bracket for mounting to the window frame. You would be in danger of losing your warranty on new pvc windows if you screwed into them by using the second bracket. Order Blinds need to change their order form so that buyers can specify which mounting they require this would reduce waste as one mounting will be put in the bin. I provided dimensions with my order which were the exact measurements of the window reveals, the blinds manufactured were reduced in size to provide clearance. When fitted I think Order Blinds had been over generous with the clearance as there was 15mm+ around the blind where I would have expected 10mm max.

    Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear that you are pleased with the quality of the blinds and the prompt processing of your order. Regarding the brackets, for vertical blinds we provide both top fix and face options for practicality. We do not recommend drilling into PVC doors, as this can cause damage to the door frames. It's always best to check with your door manufacturer in these cases. As for the safety clip, the new adhesive option is designed to reduce the need for additional drilling, but if you prefer the drill version, we would be happy to send that to you instead. Our customer service team will be reaching out to you shortly to ensure that you are fully satisfied with your blinds. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we appreciate your understanding as we strive to improve our products and services!
