Help how do I measure for blinds...

[chinupchickeny]

I can't seem to get a straight answer out of Google on this. I want to replace the roller blinds in my kitchen. The brackets are already there. Do I just measure the existing blind and order the same size?

Laura Ashley have a free online guide for this which might help...

New blinds should come with their own brackets to fit.
You normally specify you are measuring inside the recess and they calculate the allowance for brackets.
Measure the width of recess in 3 places, top middle and bottom and use the smallest one

I just figured as we already have blinds in the spaces that fit, that I could just measure the blind and specify it was an exact fit

You can't assume that your existing brackets will work with the new blind.
