    If you take the beauty plate hooks. And position them where you're going to hang your window blind brackets. You can mark a line across the window frame where the beauty plate hooks are. Then position the window blind brackets where you marked your lines at. Using the beauty plate brackets as a guide. Mine was 9 inches on either side, measuring from the inside of the window blinds

    Hi, Home Depot cut he blinds to size for you, so did they just trim just one side of blinds or both sides to keep even.

  • @TayMarie23

    @TayMarie23

    2 жыл бұрын

    Great question! They trimmed both sides to keep the pulley strings even and centered. It would have driven me crazy if they hadn’t done that! I installed these blinds for both our house and for our rental, they were cut at two different Home Depots. Both locations trimmed off either side without me asking for that, so I’m assuming that is just protocol :) However, it wouldn’t hurt to confirm that before having them cut!

    You want a 1/4in of wiggle room for each side so it’s easier to pull down. So take your exact measurement, subtract 1/2 in, and have them cut to that size if possible! Hope this helps :)

  • @TayMarie23

    @TayMarie23

    2 жыл бұрын

    Yes, you are absolutely correct! Always subtract half an inch from your exact measurement, otherwise the blinds will be a pain to pull down :) That is for the width measurement, for the length you just want to make sure your entire window will be covered when the blinds are fully stretched. It’s better to go extra on the length if needed, never go shorter!

    Take the exact window measurement and then subtract 1/4 inch from the left and the right…so in total the blinds should be a 1/2 inch narrower then the window width to allow for wiggle room!
