For the length, measure the up and down dimension on the left , center and right side. The longest length measurement measuring to the nearest mm. The factory will make any appropriate deductions. Do not make any width deductions!

Measuring the Width and Length for a Reveal Fit (Inside)
A Reveal Fit is when your Outdoor Blind fits snugly within the recessed area or between posts.
To Measure, We need four measurements:
1) Top Width inside the opening.
2) Bottom Width inside the opening.
3) Left-Side Height inside the opening.
4) Right-side Height inside the opening
Order Size: Order the Shortest Width & the Longest Height.
Reveal Fit Pro Tips:
- Double-check your sizes.
- If the width difference between the top and bottom is 10mm or less, you’re good to go. If they vary by more than 10mm, don’t worry; you can still Face Fit or use packing to level your opening.

Measuring the Width and Length for a Face Fit (Overlap)
A Face Fit is when your Outdoor Blind overlaps the opening; ideal for hiding hardware or areas with handrails.
To Measure, We need four measurements:
1) Top Width overlapping the opening by 100mm overall (50mm on each side).
2) Bottom Width overlapping opening by a minimum of 100mm (50mm on each side).
3) Left-side Height overlapping opening by a minimum of 100mm overall.
4) Right-side Height overlapping opening by a minimum of 100mm overall.
Order Size: Order the Shortest Width & the Longest Height.
Face Fit Pro Tips:
- Double-check your sizes.
- 100mm Width overlap is the minimum; it’s a good idea to add more if you have the space to minimise light gaps and hide hardware – 150mm overall is ideal.
- Height variations are common, often for water to drain away from the house.
- 100mm Height overlap is the minimum; it’s a good idea to add more if you have the space to hide hardware – 150mm overall is ideal.
