PNW Cabinets

Inside Mount

Window treatments are installed inside the window casing.

Measure Depth: Measure to see if you have full recess depth. 3/4 inch is the minimum depth required for inside mount blinds.

Measure Width: Measure the inside width of the window casing in three places. Record the narrowest measurement.

Measure Height: Measure the distance from the bottom of the top window casing to the top of the sill in three places. Record the longest measurement.

Outside Mount

Window treatments are installed outside the window casing and mounted directly on the wall or molding.

Measure Width: Measure the width to be covered. We recommend 1.5 inches overlap on each side of the window (3 inches total) for optimum light control and privacy.

Headrail Location: Determine if the headrail will be on or above the molding.

Measure Height: Measure the height from the top of the headrail to the top of the window sill or lower if overlap is desired.

Measure Height: Measure the distance from the bottom of the top window casing to the top of the sill in three places. Record the longest measurement.
