How to Measure for Your Zebra Blinds

There's really only one number we need from you, your width. Every Curtainry zebra blind adjusts up to 1.8 metres long, so height is already sorted. Grab a tape measure and we'll have your width in a few minutes.

What You'll Need

Tape Measure

Pencil

Paper

Step 1: Choose Your Mount

Blinds fit one of two ways. Pick the one that matches your window.

Recess Mount

Sits neatly inside the window frame. Choose this for a clean, built-in look.

Face-Fix Mount

Fixed to the wall above, covering the whole window from outside. Choose this to block out more light.

Step 2: Measure Your Width

Please enter your final cutting width. We cut your blind to exactly the number you give us, deductions and additions already included on your side. We don't apply any extra deduction or adjustment on our end. Because each blind is made to order, it can't be remade or altered once production starts, so please double check your width before you order.

If You Chose Recess Mount

Check your recess is at least 90mm to 100mm deep. This gives the blind's cassette (the box that holds the blind) room to fit.
Measure the width inside the window frame in three spots: top, middle, and bottom.
Write down all three numbers.
Use the smallest one, so your blind isn't a squeeze to fit.
Take 10mm off that number. This gives the blind room to open and close smoothly, and it's the final number you'll enter when ordering.

Smallest of the three, minus 10mm. That's the final width you enter, we won't deduct anything further.

Recess shallower than 90mm? No problem, just go with face-fix mount instead.

If You Chose Face-Fix Mount

Decide how far past the window frame you'd like the blind to reach on each side. We suggest at least 100mm on each side, it blocks more light and looks neater.
Measure straight across, outer edge to outer edge, including that extra bit on each side. That's the final number you'll enter when ordering.

Outer edge to outer edge, including your overlap on each side. That's the final width you enter, we won't add anything further.

Height? Already Sorted.

Every Curtainry zebra blind is made to order and adjusts up to 1.8 metres long, no matter your window. Once you've got your width, you're ready to order. No second trip up the ladder.
