Measuring Specialty-Shaped Windows: General Guidelines

1

Measure the Overall Width

Measure the widest point of the window opening.

  • Take measurements straight across, from left to right

  • Measure in more than one location if the window shape changes

  • Record the largest width to the nearest 1/8 inch

2

Measure the
Overall Height

Measure from the lowest point of the window opening to the highest point of the shape.

  • Measure vertically at the center whenever possible

  • For curved or angled windows, note where the highest point occurs

3

Do I Need a Template for Specialty-Shaped Windows?

No — a physical template is not required in most cases.

For specialty-shaped windows, a photo or simple drawing with clearly labeled measurements is typically sufficient to capture the shape accurately. This approach allows custom blinds or shades to be fabricated precisely without the need for tracing or cutting templates.

Templates are generally unnecessary as long as:

  • Measurements are taken carefully

  • All key dimensions are clearly labeled

  • The shape is visually documented with a photo or sketch

This makes the measuring process simpler while still ensuring an accurate, custom fit.
