| How to Measure Symphony Shades: Decide first if you will be using an Inside or an Outside Mount.
Whenever possible, we recommend an inside (recessed) mount
for a more finished appearance. An inside mount requires at least 1/2" of flat surface depth to screw the bracket onto for Standard or Duofold Hardware. (Valet hardware requires 3/4" and Chordless 5/8". See chart below for more details.) (To allow for clearance, we make inside mount shades approximately 3/8" narrower than the width you specify. The length is as you specify.)
With outside mounts, the shade will hang outside the actual window frame, over lapping the window frame enough to cover for maximum privacy and light blockage.
All shades come with universal brackets which can be used for either inside or outside mounts. How to Measure Inside Mounts: - Print out the Easy Measuring Guide form to write down your measurements.
- Use a metal tape measure and measure to the nearest 1/8".
- Width: Measure the exact inside measurement of the window at three
different places. Write the measurements down on the Easy Measuring Guide. Circle and use the narrowest measurement
- Length: Measure the exact inside distance from top of window to the sill at three different places. (See diagram below.) Write the measurement down on the Easy Measuring Guide. Circle the longest measurement.
- Recheck your measurements!
- Provide exact measurements to the nearest 1/8". We will take the necessary standard deduction (approximately 3/8") for clearance in our factory.
- Skylight Shades - take shortest measurement for width and length.

- Width: Measure the exact outside measurement of the window at three different places. Write the measurements down on the Easy Measuring Guide. Plan on overlapping the window. We recommend about 1 1/2" on each side.
- Length: Measure the exact outside distance from top to sill at three different places. Write the measurement down on the Easy Measuring Guide. Circle the
longest measurement. If there is no sill, allow the shade to overlap the bottom of the window casing by at least 1 1/2".(from A to B in the diagram above)
- Recheck your measurements.
- We make shades for Outside Mounts exactly the length and width you specify.
