Before you start…

When measuring for curtains and blinds we recommend using a metal tape as these are more accurate than the alternatives.  However for soft furnishing such as bedspreads and valances use a flexible tape to allow you to follow the shapes and contours of the bed.

Please use the metric system and measure to the nearest whole centimetre.

Always remember to measure every width and drop in more than one place to allow for any irregularities in the frame, ceilings and floors. Provide us with the smallest of those measurements.

For your own safety and comfort we suggest having someone to help by holding one end of the tape.

If you need to reach up don’t over reach or over stretch and use small step ladders or a sturdy chair to stand on.

And above all, remember the old adage – Measure Twice, Cut Once!
