Inside Mount:

Provide the exact window opening size. Make NO deductions. Seraph Blinds will ensure that your product will fit snugly in the window, and will operate properly. Please note that inside mounted roller shades will have a vertical light gap between the shade and the window frame of approximately 2cm on either side to accommodate the operating mechanisms

Width: For Roller Shades and Vertical Blinds record the width at the top of the window only. For all other blinds, record top, middle and bottom measurements, using the narrowest measurement.

Height: Measure the height in 3 places; left, center and right. Use the shortest measurement for Roller and Vertical Blinds. For all other blinds and shades, use the longest measurement.

 

Outside Mount:

Specify the exact width and height you want your product. Your product will be made to the exact size you specify.
 
Add extra 50mm width on the sides, 100mm on top and bottom so that the blinds covers the whole window
