How to Measure Face Fit Full Blockout Cassette/Roller Blind with Architraves

Important steps to follow when measuring Face Fit Full Blockout Cassette/ Roller Blind with architraves

Print out Blinds Downunder measuring form or download Blinds Downunder measuring form, which is editable for computer or devices, from our website to document blind measurements and details.

Use a metal tape measure. Make sure the tape measure is taught when taking measurements.

Always write down the width measurement first and then the drop measurement second on all blinds. Measure outside to outside of architraves.

*Note; Top cassette is 101mm drop and side and bottom tracks are 50mm wide each track. These dimension will come in from the outside of your overall measurements. Make sure architraves have a flat surface of 25mm-35mm for adequate for fixing. If selecting pre drilled option, make sure you document in notes on cart page, 25mm-35mm flat architrave surface. This will alter our pre drilled holes offsets slightly.

Only write measurements down in millimetres.

Write down the preferred control side on each individual blind.

Document the largest measurement of three spot measurements for width and drop.

Always double check measurements with the measurements you have written down.

Watch for protruding door/window hardware that might interfere with Full Blockout Cassette/ Roller Blind operation. Most doors will require a Top and Sides Cassette Only, rather than a Full Cassette System, as the bottom rail will interfere with the walkway.

This drawing below depicts a Top and Sides Cassette System Only and will help understand cassette and channel dimensions.
