Getting Started: Measuring Your Window Treatments

For many, the first step to starting this process is measuring your windows. Keep in mind that sometimes this won&#;t be necessary if you partner with a full-service company, but for those who need to, we&#;ve got some steps to help you through it.

Step 1: Gather your materials

To measure your windows for new window treatments, you&#;ll need:

• Pencil
• Paper
• Steel measuring tape
• Step ladder

(If your windows are too high or out of reach, consider using a professional. At Stoneside, we do ALL the measurements for you.)

Step 2: Measure the width

When you&#;re ready, measure from one end of the window to the other. Make sure you pay attention to the type of measurement you need &#; interior vs. exterior. An interior measurement is from edge to edge inside the trim. An exterior measurement includes the surrounding trim on the wall.

(Typically, blinds are an interior measurement. Shades can be interior or exterior, depending on your style goals.)

Step 3: Write it down

Record your measurement to the nearest quarter inch on a piece of paper.

Step 4: Measure the height

Do the same thing, but this time vertically. Again, ensure you&#;re getting the correct type of measurement per the instructions of your manufacturer.

Step 5: Write it down

Record your measurement to the nearest quarter inch on a piece of paper.

Repeat these steps for all your windows, even if you believe they are the same measurements. You&#;ll want your measurements as accurate as possible to ensure a snug fit and optimal light and temperature control.

The way you measure may need to be adjusted depending on how you plan to mount your treatments, and some places even recommend measuring six different points in the window. If you know where you&#;re ordering your window treatments, reach out to their customer service or check their FAQ page for a tutorial to ensure you&#;re getting the correct measurements for your new window treatments.

Sound like a little more of a hassle than you want to take on? You&#;re not the only one. Many people opt for custom window treatments so they can outsource these details to the pros. If that sounds like you, go ahead and put that measuring tape away. This full-service approach means zero measuring on your end, my friend.

Many shade and blind companies will outsource the installation teams, subcontracting this task to other companies. At Stoneside, we do things a bit differently, and according to our customers &#; a whole lot better.

Stoneside is proud to have our very own installation team. We&#;ve done extensive vetting and training, so these installers are the best in the industry. They&#;re focused on giving you a 5-star experience, and they&#;re experts on all of our products, as opposed to having general knowledge on how window treatments work.

If you&#;re still unsure about what installation experience you prefer, that&#;s okay! You&#;re still at the starting stage, and as you go through this guide, you&#;ll likely gain some insight into what you may be looking for for your home. Don&#;t let this part of the process keep you from exploring your options for your new window treatments.
