Measure Original Arch Version 2
Our trimming scale is designed for perfect arches. To determine if your window is a perfect arch, follow these steps: 1. Measure the width (A) and the height (B) to the nearest 1/4” from the inside of the window casing. 2. If the width (A) is exactly double the height (B) you have a perfect arch window. Example: You have a perfect arch if your window’s width is 30” and its height is 15”. You have an imperfect arch if your window has a width of 30” and a height of 12”. Once you have confirmed you have a perfect arch, use the trimming scale on the shade to trim your shade.
