Blind Measuring Guide
Continental Blinds & Care includes free blind measurement and installation with every purchase. Here are some tips to blind measuring if you choose to do it yourself.
  • Measure each window thoroughly—horizontally at the top, center and bottom and vertically along both sides and at the center (always measure with a hard-edged ruler or steel tape—never a cloth tape). Then take the additional and important step of measuring diagonally, too. Combined, these measurements will reveal whether or not your window is square.

  • If a window isn't square, consider an outside mount; installing the treatment above the opening. This can be done in such a way that the headrail covers as little of the trim as possible. However, to minimize light leakage, we recommend that the shade overlap the window opening at least 2" on each side and at the bottom.

  • If the treatment telescopes to one side as it is raised, the window may not be level. Many shades have an adjustable bottom railweight. It can be moved to compensate for the window frame and prevent telescoping.
