Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window! Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth:
How to Measure:
Let's start with the Width:
Now, let's do the Height:
Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/2" to your blind's width to allow room for installation and for proper movement of the blind within the window opening. No deductions will be made to your height.
Outside Mount
Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your blind. To mount the brackets, you will need at least 2". The blind can be installed directly above the window opening, or higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the blind is raised.
If you have trim around the window, you can mount the blind above the trim, directly on the trim (if you have the required minimum flat space for the brackets), or to the sides of the trim if you do not have enough mounting space above the window or on the trim itself. See the directions below for how you'd like to install your blind.
If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product.

Looking for something different than typical wood blinds? Want better visibility to the outside but still want flexible light and privacy control at your fingertips? Our 2 1/2" Performance Wood Blinds are perfectly proportioned for larger windows and to provide a less-obstructed view for any window in your home. Made from lightweight yet durable American basswood, these blinds can be customized in a variety of ways for function and for style. Each blind is custom cut in the color of your choice and then assembled with your chosen features. Choose between standard cordless lift and wand tilt operation for simple, easy-to-use raising and lowering of the blind and for rotating the slats. Looking for convenience and that extra wow factor? Upgrade to motorized lift and tilt? A rechargeable motor inside the blind does all the work for you with a push of a button on the multi-channel remote control. It's a perfect solution for operating multiple blinds at once and for elevated or hard-to-reach windows. Round out your selection with either standard ladder cords or optional cloth tapes for extra light blocking and a splash of color.
