It’s never easier to measure for roller blinds for your North East home. That’s because EasyFit delivers blinds that are simple to assemble and install.
We’re big on making things easier for our customers. It’s the reason why we make our roller blinds so accessible and cost-effective. We want as many homeowners as possible to enjoy our stunning products that enhance modern and traditional properties.
Because we’re all about greater accessibility and making our beautiful roller blinds widely available across our community, we created this handy guide to help you measure for them and get the perfect installation.
Measurement Tools
Your measurements are only as good as the tools you use. We recommend using a metal tape measure to get the dimensions of your window or door. Why metal? Because it offers greater reliability and accuracy, ensuring you get measurements that reflect reality. However, if you don’t have access to a metal one, make sure you use a good-quality tape measure.
When it comes to choosing which measurement system you use, we accept both inches and centimetres. For accuracy and consistency, record your measurement to the nearest sixteenth of an inch or nearest millimetre.
The next step is deciding how you want your blinds to sit – inside or outside your window or door? We call an inside the window fit a Recess Size, while outside the window fit is Exact Size. Please note, this is not to be confused with measuring your window externally! All measurements are for inside your home.
Take Notes
After you’ve chosen between Exact or Recess Size, it’s time to measure the width. It’s important to measure from left to right. Make sure you record the measurement – it’s easy to forget otherwise.
Once you’ve recorded width from left to right, measure length by going from top to bottom. Record the measurement again.
It’s vital you record the width first and length (drop) second. It’s best practice because the industry records measurements in this order, so when you send off your dimensions, we can produce your new roller blinds without error.
It’s important to measure the width and length in several places to account for size variation. If there are any differences, you must record the smallest measurement so we can manufacture your roller blinds correctly.
Also, consider any protruding handles so your roller blinds can close without obstruction.
If you’ve followed those steps in the correct order, you should have the correct measurements for us to send the ideal roller blinds to your home or business.

Benefits Of Roller Blinds
Roller blinds are the complete package, offering advanced shading solutions for both homes and offices.
Our blinds are custom-made to your exact specifications, fabricated by skilled artisans in our Newcastle factory. Our experts take pride in making the finest blinds that look beautiful in your home and perform all year round.
Bespoke Style
Whether you’re looking to get blinds for a residential or commercial property, roller blinds work well across both locations, thanks to their inherent style.
At EasyFit, we’re all about putting our customers in creative control. That’s why we offer a fabulous range of colours, fabrics and finishes. You can create your bespoke design and get a style that’s perfectly suited to your space.
Roller blinds are elegant and timeless – they never go out of fashion. So, when you invest in them, you’ll get blinds that will always look great. They create an inviting, homely feel and smarten up any office – roller blinds offer the best of both worlds.
Outstanding Performance
Roller blinds are the go-to option for effective shading solutions. Because they cover the entire window or door aperture, they block 100 per cent of external light. This feature offers unparalleled privacy, meaning you won’t get any unwanted attention from outside – perfect for bathrooms and bedrooms.
Effective light management also means you get a better night’s sleep. Roller blinds in the bedroom prevent annoying light pollution from disturbing your peace: no more street lights or car headlights – ideal for light sleepers in built-up areas.
Roller blinds’ brilliant light regulation is also great for stopping discolouration of surfaces. They’re perfect for protecting wooden floors and furniture from direct sunlight. And if you’ve got prized artwork sensitive to light, roller blinds make the ideal shading solution.
Heat Regulation
Do you ever feel too cold in winter and too hot in summer? Roller blinds are great for creating a more comfortable temperature at home.
In the coldest months, they act as an additional thermal barrier that retains more heat. You can lower your central heating and save money on your energy bills. A top solution that also reduces your carbon footprint. What’s not to love?
If it’s sweltering outside in the summer, close your roller blinds to ensure your living space is cooler. You’ll be able to chill inside and not resort to a fan or air conditioning – again saving you money and making your home more energy-efficient.
