Width Information

measuring-tape For the most accurate results use a metal tape measure and always measure twice, just to check.

Recess

For blind fitting within window recess
Vertical blinds in recess Measuring blind width in recess

Measure in three places, across the top, middle and the bottom, this allows for any variances (such as part tiled walls).

Use the smallest of these measurements - We will make a small deduction to ensure that the blind fits perfectly within the recess, allowing for the blind fixtures and fittings.

Exact Width

Sometimes referred to as Bracket to Bracket Width
Vertical blinds outside recess Measuring blind width outside recess

If installing outside of a window recess, measure the recess in three places, across the top, middle and the bottom, this allows for any variances. Then add a minimum of 10cm to the widest measurement for the overlap. This will give you your exact overall blind width.

If you have a wooden baton above the recess, we advise you to measure this as your exact width.

Drop Information

measuring-tape For the most accurate results use a metal tape measure and always measure twice, just to check.

Recess

For blind fitting within window recess
Vertical blinds in recess Measuring blind height in recess

Measure the recess drop (length/height) in three places, from top to bottom across the left, middle and right side of the internal window opening, this allows for any variances.

Use the smallest of these measurements - A small deduction will be taken to ensure the blind can operate correctly.

Exact Size

Sometimes referred to as Bracket to Bracket Width
Vertical blinds outside recess Measuring blind height outside recess

If your blind does not sit within a recess or you simply want us to make a blind to your sizes with no deductions, measure the overall drop you require from top to bottom, including the blind headrail and any overlap to ensure you get full coverage. Then add a minimum overlap of 10cm to the top and bottom. This will give you your exact overall blind width.

If you have a wooden baton above the recess, we advise you to measure from the top of the baton to where you want the blind to finish as your exact drop.

What's in the box
Our Vertical Blinds are carefully packaged in 2 separate boxes. Whilst we will dispatch these boxes together, there is a small chance that they will arrive separately.   

Your blind will arrive with fitting instructions, fixtures and fittings  Screws and wall plug fixings however are not normally provided as the type required varies greatly depending upon the surfaces you are fixing to.

If you would like to know more about fitting your blinds before you order, why not checkout the fitting video on this page.
Additional Info
Patterned Vertical Blind Information
Our patterned vertical blinds are not intended to have a uniformed design.  This means that the pattern is randomised across the blind by shuffling the slats.  Just like the blinds below on the left.



Because you can order slats only, this makes patterned vertical blinds a more versatile options. It’s easy to mix and match patterns and colours, a beautiful and bright finish just like the top right blind, is so achievable at an affordable cost.

Nice, bright plain blinds. Really good if all you want is something to defuse direct sunlight and maintain a bright room.

Product arrived damaged beyond repair. Rail had a 90 degree twist towards one end so it was impossible to mount, let alone put the blinds up. Box was clearly damaged. Cheap company with poor products and service and they rely on clumsy, aggressive delivery drivers.
