Instructions For Inside Mount Cellular Shades
Inside-mounted cellular shades fit inside the window casing.
- Measuring the width: The width measurement is taken from the inside edge of the window frame at the top. Always measure to the nearest ⅛’’, and be sure to use a steel measuring tape. Your order width=Your window width-¼’’.
- Measuring the depth: Your window needs to be deep enough for an inside mount. For dry-battery model, the minimum depth is 1 ⅞’’. For rechargeable model, the minimum depth is 2 ⅞’’.
- Measuring the height: The height measurement is taken from the window frame in three places, top left, center, and top right down to the sill. Record the tallest height up to the nearest ⅛’’. This will be the height you order.
Instructions For Outside Mount Cellular Shades
Outside-mounted cellular shades hang above the window, or on the wall surrounding the window.
- Measuring the width: Take the measurement at the top of the window frame. You’ll use that measurement and add the recommended 4 to 6 inches. This will ensure the window is properly covered. For more light coverage and privacy, add even more to the measurement.
- Measuring the height: Take it from three locations, the left, center, and the right. You’ll use the tallest height and add the recommended 4 to 6 inches. This will ensure the window is properly covered.
