1. Start by measuring the width of the window. Take three measurements: one at the top, one in the middle, and one at the bottom of the window. Note down these measurements.

Among the three width measurements, identify the smallest one. This will ensure that the blind fits properly within the window reveal.

2. Next, measure the drop or height of the window. Take three measurements: one on the right side, one in the middle, and one on the left side of the window. Record these measurements.

Determine the smallest measurement among the three drop measurements. This ensures that the blind will fit appropriately in terms of height.

It's important to consider any potential obstructions within the window reveal, such as burglar bars or window handles. Make sure to account for these protrusions and adjust the measurements accordingly to ensure proper clearance.

Additionally, take into account the available space within the reveal, considering the type of blind you intend to install. If there are tiles or skirting installed along the sides of the reveal, take their presence into consideration while measuring to ensure the blind can be accommodated properly.

Note: The above measuring instructions are applicable for all types of blinds.

1. Start by measuring the width and height (see above) of the window reveal where you want the blinds to be installed.

2. Determine the desired size of the cutout. This will depend on factors such as the type of blind, the amount of light or privacy desired, and any obstructions that need to be avoided.

3. Measure the width of the cutout by subtracting the desired cutout width from the width of the reveal. This will determine the width of the remaining space for the blinds on either side of the cutout.

4. Measure the height of the cutout by subtracting the desired cutout height from the height of the reveal. This will determine the height of the remaining space for the blinds above and below the cutout.

5. Ensure that the remaining space on all sides of the cutout is sufficient to accommodate the blinds and any operating mechanisms, such as cords or handles.

Consider any additional factors that may affect the cutout measurements, such as tile or skirting installations along the sides of the reveal.

It's important to note that if you have skirting along the sides of the reveal, a cutout may not be necessary. An alternative option is to fit the blind in between the skirting, but please keep in mind that this may result in a larger gap at the top part of the blind on each side.

Double-check your measurements.

By following these instructions, you can measure and create a cutout within the reveal that accommodates your blinds, providing a customized and precise fit.

1. If you are unable to install the blind within the window reveal due to obstructions or if you simply prefer a different aesthetic, a face fix installation is an alternative option.

2. For face fix installation, you will need to add a minimum of 50mm on each side of the reveal width. This additional width ensures that the blind extends beyond the window frame adequately.

3. Similarly, add 100mm to the top measurement to ensure proper coverage of the window. This additional length ensures that the blind fully covers the top portion of the window when it is fully lowered.

4. Finally, add 50mm at the bottom of the window to provide sufficient coverage when the blind is fully extended downward.

It's important to note that the exact measurements for face fix installation may vary depending on the specific type of blind being used. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions or consult with a professional to determine the precise measurements required for your chosen blind.
