How to Measure Windows for Window
Measuring before you order Window Treatments in NYC is very important, but
sometimes clients are unaware of how to do this. It’s quite simple; just be sure to

The first section you need to measure is the length and width of the window
inside the window casing. This means from the inside of the frame to the inside
of the frame. Make sure your tape measure is level and not stuck on any unlevel
edges, otherwise, you may come up with two different numbers to compare.
The next section that should be measured carefully is the length and width from
the outer edges of the casing. Again, make sure the measure is not hung up on
anything besides the frame. By getting these numbers together, it will help a
professional make recommendations for you on either windoow drapes or
Window Blinds in NYC.
Finally, measure six inches above the window all the way to the floor. This will
tell you what length of curtains to order, no matter what the material is. Also,
account for any tie backs you will be using, if this is going to affect the curtain
length.
Make sure you let the window treatment professional know how far beyond the
window you’d like the curtains to extend. This will help you choose a curtain rod
length that looks good as well. Usually, the preferred length is two to three inches
on either side of the window to fully cover all the open space.
If you follow these recommendations, then your window treatments will fit
perfectly.
