Recess Fitting

Width

Measure the inside width of the window Recess. We would always recommend measuring the top, middle and bottom in case the recess is out of square and then using the narrowest measurement.

Drop

Measure the inside drop of the Recess. We would always recommend measuring the far left hand side, the centre and the far right hand side and then using the shortest measurement.

When Recess sizes are given Controliss Blinds will take all the nessasary adjustments to ensure you receive a perfect fitting blind.

Exact Fitting

Width

When measuring the width decide how much you would like the blind to overlap the window recess. We would recommend a minimum of 50mm each side although this is largely down to personal preference. Please take care to account for any obstacles that may interrupt the usage of the blind.

Drop

When measuring the drop decide how much you would like the blind to overlap the window recess. We would recommend a minimum of 70mm above to allow for convenient fixing of the mounting brackets. The bottom overlap is very much personal preference.
