      Step 1: How To Measure Your Windows Recess Depth

      You need at least 1” of unobstructed recess space to mount your shade securely.

      How to measure your unobstructed recess space:

      1. Choose a starting point and measure to the front of the recess (recess depth)
      2. From the same starting point, measure to the front of the obstruction (obstruction depth)
      3. The difference is your free recess space (unobstructed recess depth)

      Watch for any window obstructions

      • Window Handles
      • Window Latches
      • Window Winders
      • Window Locks

      Measure With Obstructions

      NOTE: You need at least 1" of unobstructed recess space to securely mount your shade.

      1. Choose a starting point and measure to the front edge of the recess—this is your recess depth.
      2. From the same starting point, measure to the front of any obstruction—this is your obstruction depth.
      3. Subtract the obstruction depth from the recess depth to determine your unobstructed recess space.

      Step 3: Measuring The Width

      1. Measure at Three Points – Measure the inside width of the window at the top, middle, and bottom.
      2. Use the Narrowest Measurement – Write down all three measurements and use the smallest width to ensure the best fit.
      3. Double-Check for Accuracy – Measure again to confirm your numbers before ordering your shade.

      Step 3: Measuring The Height

      1. Measure at Three Points – Measure from the top of the window recess to the bottom at the left, middle, and right sides.
      2. Use the Longest Measurement – Write down all three measurements and use the largest height to ensure full coverage.
      3. Double-Check for Accuracy – Measure again to confirm before placing your order.
