An Easy way to Measure Window Blinds for Bay Window

To measure for window blinds for bay windows you firstly need to work out the intersecting points of the blinds to determine the width of each blind. You need to select your slat size so you can get the depth you need to calculate the intersection point.

On window blinds in a bay there will be a small gap where the window treatments meet. Follow these easy steps to measure your blinds.

How to Measure for Window Blinds into a Bay

Cut two pieces of cardboard at the thickness of the slat and at around 30cm long.
Place the pieces of cardboard so the front edges meet like they are the actual blind slats at each intersection point (See diagram above)
Make a smallmarkon the front edge where they intersect. Repeat the step for both blinds.
Next you need to measure each side of the window blinds. The left blind measurement will be from the intersection point wemarked to the window frame. Make sure your measurement is an equal distance away from the window as the intersection point. Minus 1cm from both of these blinds for clearance.
Finally measure the centre bay blind by measuring the distance from each intersection point.
