How to measure

This is how to measure for your blinds.  If you'd like a precise measurement, or you're simply not confortable doing it yourself, why not schedule an appointment with Tom Sirois, owner of TNS Custom Blinds Inc.  He can stop by your home or business and provide you with expert measurements and custom installation.
