Variances in width may be caused by the window not being straight, or by the walls being tiled.<br><br><\/li><li>It is important to always use the narrowest of these measurements when buying your blind.<br><br><\/li><li>Repeat this step for the recess drop, again taking measurements in at least three places, and use the shortest of these when ordering.<br><br><\/li><li>If the variance between the three width measurements or the three drop measurements is more than a couple of centimetres, it is unlikely that a blind will work correctly inside the recess and you should consider buying a blind to fit outside of the recess instead.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"post-subtitle wp-block-heading\">Measuring for a Blind Outside the Recess<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>When measuring for a blind that will be placed outside of the window recess, you will need to allow for the blind to extend approximately 10cm on either side of the window, so add this on to the recess width measurement.<br><br><\/li><li>You will also need to allow the same above and below the window recess. An exception to this will be if you only require the blind to lower as far as the window sill.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carefully following the tips above should be all you need when measuring a window for blinds. But, as different suppliers may vary with the methods they use, it is always best to double check their requirements before buying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"post-subtitle wp-block-heading\">Looking for Inspiration?<\/h2>\n\n\n\r\n\t\t<div id=\"content-archive\" class=\"grid col-620\">       \r\n         <section id=\"story-zone-popshops\">\t\r\n          <!-- the loop -->\r\n        \t                      \r\n                \r\n            \r\n              <div id=\"popshop-box\">\r\n        \r\n                <!-- Post thumbnail -->\r\n                <div id=\"popshop-box-img\">\r\n                   <a title=\"Details: Blinds Selection -
