How to measure for replacement blind slats

Vertical blinds are a practical and stylish window covering that have been popular for decades. You are probably watching this video because you have an existing vertical blind that is looking a bit tired but you are loathed to get a new blind as the headrail is working fine. Well one of the many benefits of vertical blinds is that you can keep your existing headrail and just change the louvres themselves. Vertical blind louvres are also known in the industry as slats. I am here to explain to you the most simple way to measure for replacement vertical blind slats for your existing vertical blind headrail For our full range of replacement vertical blind slats please visit https://www.lifestyleblinds.com/repla... email sales@lifestyleblinds.com Or call us on 0161 451 0290 Monday - Friday 7am - 9pm Weekends and bank holidays: 8am - 6pm Before you measure we advise that you check the top hangers on your existing slats. .The top hanger is sewn into the top of the fabric of the blind and is used to hook the slat onto the track. We need to make sure that the hangers that are sewn into our slats are compatible with your track. If your hanger looks like our hanger you are ok to proceed to measuring. If you are unsure please send us a photo of your hanger to sales@lifestyleblinds.com and we will check it for you. 1) Take a slat down from the current blind you have and lay it on a table or on the floor, making sure the slat is completely flat. 2) Measure the width of the slat, it will be either 89mm which is 3 ½ inches wide or 127mm which is 5 inches wide. 89mm slats are the most common slat widths and all of the vertical blind fabrics on our website are available in this width. 127mm wide fabrics are less common but we still have a good range. Use the on site filters to find the correct slat widths for your window. 3) Measure the drop of the slat from the top of the fabric to the bottom of the fabric (excluding the sewn in top hanger hook). This is what we call “fabric size” 4) Count the number of hooks on your rail to determine how many slats you require. 5) Decide which bottom weight option you require. Do you want white weights and chains? Beige weights and chains or do you want to go ultra sleek and opt for our sewn in weights no chains option?
