Recently Rainbow Blinds have invested heavily in our vertical blinds department as we look to improve our efficiency in bringing you the best quality products at the best prices for your profit margin.
Part of this process is to ensure that when you order vertical blinds from Rainbow Blinds, we are all talking the same language.
We offer three different measuring methods for our vertical blinds – Recess, Hem to Hem or Exact Blind Size. Below are explanations of what we mean for each term and what you will receive when you choose these options.
Recess
You have measured the window recess, we will make a vertical blind to fit perfectly in this recess. From your drop measurement, your headrail will be 45mm, your clearance will be 7mm and the rest will be slat fabric.

Hem to Hem
You have measured the slats’ fabric from the top hem to the bottom hem. We will make the slat fabric to this drop size. No headrail adjustment. No clearance added.

Exact Blind Size
You have measured the space you want the vertical blind to cover and given us the width and drop. We will make the blind so that the drop will be from the top of the headrail (45mm) to the bottom hem of the slat fabric. We do not add any clearance.

Remember to state if you want face fix or top fix brackets in your order.
