How to Measure for Inside Mount

  • Measure the Depth

    Measure the top depth of the window frame for in-frame installation of the Woven Wood shade. For a flush fit inside the frame without protruding, a minimum depth of 2" (5cm) is required.

  • Measure the Width

    Place the tape inside the window frame and measure left-to-right at the top, middle, and bottom. Keep it level, record each measurement, and use the smallest one, rounding down to the nearest 1/8" (0.125")

  • Measure the Height

    Measure top-to-bottom at left, center, right inside the frame. Keep the tape vertical; record each measurement. Use the largest measurement and round down to the nearest 1/8"(0.125")

Tips for Inside Mount

1. Ensure your window frame has enough depth for an inside mount.

2. The minimum depth of 2" (5 cm).

3. Note that the fabric width is usually about 1/8" (3 mm) smaller than the valance (order width).

How to Measure for Outside Mount

    Measure the height above the window where the headrail will be installed, ensuring enough space for secure bracket and headrail placement.

  • Measure the Width

    Adding 5–8 inches (12.7 to 20.3 cm) to the exact width is recommended to cover the entire window and provide maximum light coverage.

  • Measure the Height

    Measure the window from top to bottom. Add 5–8inches (12.7 to 20.3 cm)to ensure full coverage and maximum light blockage.

Tips for Outside Mount
