Roman Shade Measuring Guide

Inside Mount:

• Mounted within the window frame
• Provides a clean, built-in look
• A great way to leave attractive woodwork exposed
• 3/4" minimum depth required for secure mount
• 2 1/4" minimum depth required for flush mount
• If your window frame isn't deep enough, please select an outside mount

STEP 1:

Measure the inside width at the top of the window. This is your ordering width. We will make the necessary deductions. (approx. 3/8")

STEP 2:

Measure the height at 3 locations - the left side, middle and right side. Record the largest of the 3 measurements. This is your ordering length.

Outside Mount:

• Great option when there is not enough depth for an inside mount
• Mounted to the wall, ceiling or molding surface surrounding the window
• Often used to make the window appear larger or to hide a less attractive window or door
• No minimum depth requirement
• Minimum of 2 1/4" flat surface (on wall, ceiling or frame) required for secure mount

STEP 1:

Measure the width of the area you wish to cover. If space allows, we recommend adding 3-4" (1 1/2-2" each side) to this measurement to help eliminate light seepage. This is your ordering width and will be the overall measurement outside bracket to outside bracket.

STEP 2:

Measure the height of the area your wish to cover. This is your ordering length.
