French Door
Measure the width of the glass inside each door across in three areas - the top, middle, and bottom.
Use the largest width measurement of the three and add 2 to 3 inches to that number.
Next, measure the height in three areas - the left, middle, and right.
Use the largest height of the three and add4 to 6 inches to that number (2 to 3 inches at the top, and 2 to 3 inches at the bottom).
Sliding Door
If the depth of the top frame is less than 2 inches, you must use an outside mount.
Measure the width of your sliding door opening in three areas -top, middle, and bottom.
For an inside mount, take the smallest number of the three and use this as your width measurement.
For an outside mount, add at least 4 inches to your measurement to allow for maximum light gap coverage.
For outside mounts, door heights are measured from top-to-bottom in three areas - left, middle, and right. Remember to start your measurement from where you’ll place the headrail, which is typically 3 to 4 inches above the door.
For inside mounts, simply use the largest measurement. You do not have to add to this measurement.
Side By Side
Measure the window width in three areas - the top, middle, and bottom. Use the largest measurement as your total width.
If you require 2 separate blinds for one window, divide the total width by 2 and use that number for your 2 blind (Ex. 70’’÷ 2 = 35").
If you require 3 separate blinds, divide the total width by 3 and use that number for your 3 blinds (Ex. 90’’÷ 3 = 30’’).
