Measuring
To find width (A):Measure exact distance between inside surfaces of window frame atthe top, middle and bottom, round the measurement down to the narrowest 1/8”. Do not take any width deductions, Levolor will take the necessary deduction for clearance from the size you provide when you order anInside Mount.
To find height (B):Measure exact distance from inside surface at top of window to sill.If you prefer blind not to touch sill, deduct 1/4". If there is no sill, measure height to point where shade is to extend.
Checking depth (C):Measure surface depth at the point where the brackets are to be mounted. Check needed depth to insure and inside mount treatment is a possibility.
Inside Mount
Measuring
To find width (A):Measure exact distance between the outermost points where the treatment is to be placed. This measurement should overlap each side of the window 1 ½ to 4“ depending on the product. Factory takes no deductions to your headrail or fabric from the width dimension.
To find height (B):Measure exact distance where the top of the treatment will be mounted to the top of the sill. If there is no sill or if the treatment is to overlap window frame, measure to point where blind is to extend. Measure the height of the area to be covered. Blind should extend at least 3” above and 3” below opening or window molding.
• For installations to the floor, allow ½” for proper clearance and make adequate allowance for carpet.
