    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.

    Roller System Options

    'Standard' Roller System with Brackets & Covers

    Standard Roller System

    Our standard roller system allows the fabric roll, brackets and blind mechanism to be seen. They can be either top fixed or face fixed, but not side fixed. This is the most common system used and is the one you've probably seen around the most.

    To give our system a premium finish we supply matching plastic bracket covers with our standard roller system at no additional cost. Just slip them over the metal bracket once its screwed into place for a neat, attractive finish.

    You can choose from three colours for this system - white, black or anthracite grey.

    Luxury Roller System

    Luxury Roller System

    If you choose our luxury roller system we will supply you with a smart 7cm tall aluminium cassette that hides the top of the roll of fabric, the brackets and the blind mechanism. It also removes the gap you would usually see between the ceiling and the fabric roll giving a neater and more high end, contemporary finish. You can choose from three colours for this system - white, black or anthracite grey. 

    Luxury Roller System Options

    The cassette can be either top fixed or face fixed depending where you are fitting your blind. Top fix is used when fitting your brackets at the top to the 'ceiling' area inside a recess; while face fixed is used when brackets are attached vertically on the wall for the cassette to clip into such as when you are fitting above a window outside of the recess.

    The cassette is around 8cm deep, so please bear this in mind when deciding if its the best option for your space depending on how you will be fitting it. For example, if face fixing the cassette it will protrude from the wall by around 8cm, so its best to ensure there is nothing in the area that will clash with them such as a door.

    For most fabrics the cassette will have a piece of the same fabric as the blind itself fitted into the cassette as seen in the image above, however, if you are purchasing a sunscreen or sheer blind this fabric cannot be used as an insert and so the cassette will be supplied plain as shown below:

    Luxury Roller System with No Insert

    Chain Colour Options

    We offer a premium nickel chain as standard which offers smooth, precise control of your new roller blind.

    Nickel Chain

    The control chain/cord for your blind can be on either the left or right side.

    When deciding, consider whether you have any furniture that will make reaching the controls harder on a certain side; or if you are having multiple blinds in the same room whether you want them all on the same side or on opposite sides.

    Bottom Finish Options

    Please read the guide below and select which bottom finish option you would like from the drop down menu:

    Plain Bottom Finish

    Plain Bottom Finish

    Our plain bottom finish features a sturdy folded and sewn bottom pocket with a weighted insert to ensure the blind hangs nicely.


    Aluminium Bottom Bars

    Alternatively you can choose to have the bottom of your blind finished with an aluminium bottom bar in a range of finishes.

    White Curved Bottom Bar

    White Curved Bottom Bar

    Black Curved Bottom Bar

    Black Curved Bottom Bar

    Anthracite Grey Curved Bottom Bar

    Anthracite Grey Curved Bottom Bar

    Silver Curved Bottom Bar

    Silver Curved Bottom Bar

    Please Note - In July 2023 our bottom bar options changed from a round aluminium bar to the rectangular Gemini bottom bar with a sleek curved front and stylish angled end caps.
    If you ordered previously and want to check if your new product's bottom bars will match those on your previous order, please contact our team who will be able to confirm.

    Our Steel 1% openness sunscreen roller blind is the perfect solution for south facing windows or conservatories where very bright sunlight can be a problem. The tight weave cuts out in excess of 97% of the UV rays whilst not plunging you into darkness. Because the weave is so tight the view outside is limited unless the sun is particularly bright.

    The weave is made up of a soft & subtle bluish grey fabric intertwined with a pale almost off white material. The effect of this combination is not only incredibly easy on the eye but it also creates a designer look & a sense of craftsmanship.

    Please Note This blind is suitable for top fixing or face fixing only, it cannot be side fixed.

    Steel 1% Openness Sunscreen Roller Blind

    Blind Features:


    • Our screen fabric blinds in this collection are made from a PVC and Polyester Mesh which provide solar control for particularly bright rooms. This is achieved by weaving the materials together in an open weave that allows light through but blocks people seeing into your home.

    • The screen fabric creates a unique effect where you can see out but others cannot see in during the day. At night time when it is dark outside and your lights are on inside this effect is reversed.

    • Made on a rust free aluminium roller tube.

    • Supplied with sidewinder mechanism for complete control which can be fitted on the left or right as you desire.

    • Supplied with a child safety clip for peace of mind.

    • Comes fully made to measure.

    • Measurements are in metric with width first followed by drop.

    • Waterproof and fire retardant fabric

    Sizing FAQ:

    • To order a recess size blind enter the wall to wall measurement at the smallest point of your window for for both width and drop. Our factory will make a small 0.5cm reduction to ensure your blind fits into this space.

    • An exact blind size is the finished blind size including brackets.

    • Fabric size is the size of the fabric part of the blind only. The finished blind will be 3.5cm wider than this to include for the brackets.

    • We will add enough fabric to the roll so that when the blind is fully extended the roller tube is still covered.

    • Please Note This blind is suitable for top fixing or face fixing only, it cannot be side fixed.



    Safety and Fitting information: As members of the BBSA and Make It Safe Campaign we take child safety very seriously when making your blinds. We only use quality roller blind components such as aluminium tubes, metal brackets and Louvolite sidewinder mechanisms to assemble your blind. When it comes to the control chain we provide every roller blind that uses a chain with a tensioning safety device like the one shown in our gallery photo for peace of mind.

    Really pleased with the quality of our blinds

    Perfect fit. Paler than I expected but a very nice effective blind. Very pleased.

    Really pleased with my blind. It does what it says: lets the light in but screens the sun out. It would be better if there was a stop on the blind when you pull it up, and it would have been nice to know that there were printed instructions rolled up inside the blind before I printed them out, but these are only small niggles.
