At Bk Blinds Selby, our main concern is customer service and would like to assist you in any way that we can. Here you will find a list of just some of the frequently asked questions that we receive. If you don’t find the answer to your question then please contact us and we will make it our priority to ensure that your query is satisfied.

Q How do I measure for my blinds?

A. You can call me or make an enquiry so that we can measure up for your blinds completely free.

Alternatively if you would like to take your own measurements there are two ways:

Recess measurements – This is for fitting inside your window area from top to bottom and also from side to side.

You will need to measure in 3 places across and also in 3 places top to bottom and provide the smallest measurement.

When the blind is made adjustments are already calculated at source to allow for the brackets so you obtain the perfect fit.

​

Q. What if I want the blind to fit around the window recess?

A. This is not a problem. You will need to provide exact measurements of the width and also the drop so that the edges are covered and this will be the exact size of your blind. No deductions will be made to your blind when it is made.

​

Q. I already have a vertical blind and would like to change the look in my room. Can I buy new louvres?

A. Yes you can. We can do this several ways, you can post me one of the louvres and choose a new fabric from our great range and we can provide a quote to replace all the existing louvres to provide a brand new look at a fraction of the cost. I will also supply new weights and chains to go with your new louvres.
