Taking Accurate Measurements For Fitting Your Blinds
Measure across your window for the entire length of the Venetian blinds, then we’ll mark with our pencil where your first bracket needs to go. We may need to deduct around 10mm from our measurements to make sure your Venetian blinds fit inside the recess snugly. If you find you need to fit outside of the recess, we recommend adding 120mm to the overall width of your blind to reduce any gaps that may let the light in.
Positioning Blinds
We can fix them to the window frame, wall or ceiling. Window fittings are not endorsed with plastic or aluminium windows as the drill holes can’t be filled. Positioning often depends on personal taste, but Venetian blinds generally serve their purpose a lot better by blocking out light and increasing insulation(This is if they are positioned within the recess of your window.).
However, if there are obstructions such as window handles and levers, you may have to compromise and fit Venetian blinds to the outside of the recess.
