Step 1
Select the Mount Type
If you have a special window shape and need a measure guide, please get in touch with us via email at support@curtarra.com.
Step 2
What is the Window Width (frame inner edge to edge)?
What is the Window Width (frame outer edge to edge)?
Measure the width at the top, middle, and bottom. For best results, use a steel measuring tape.
Step 2
How Many Inches Would You Like to Add the Width?
We recommend to add at least 1-3 inches(1/2-1 1/2" each side) to minimize light seepage and enhance privacy.
To measure for the outside-mount Roman blinds (without overlap) installed on the bay window, begin by measuring the width 2-3 inches from the wall, as shown in the image below.
Step 3
What is the Window Height (frame inner edge to edge)?
What is the Window Height (frame outer edge to edge)?
For accuracy, please use a steel measuring tape measure from the highest point inside(for inside mount) or outside(for outside mount) your frame.
Step 3
How Many Inches Would You Like to Add the Length?
We recommend to add at least 4-6 inches to allow the windowr exposure when roll the shade up.
Summary
Special Tips:
-
1
At least 2 inches of frame depth for bracket installation. The shade's depth will change by style; the biggest roller shades are about 3 inches deep.
-
2
To measure a bay window for outside-mount Roman shades without overlap:
1. Determine Projection (P): Mark the depth 2 to 3 inches the shades will project from the wall in the corner angles.
2. Measure Center Panel: Measure the width between the two P marks in the corners of the center window.
3. Measure Side Panels: Measure the width of each side window, adding desired overlap only to the outermost edge of the bay. This ensures clearance.
