What you will need

Steel Tape Measure

Pen and paper to record your measurements

A friend to assist you

Each Guard is tailored to your window’s exact dimensions. For a perfect fit and total darkness, accurate measuring and proper installation are essential.

Step 1: Measuring Your Window’s Recess Depth

Before measuring your window, check the recess depth to ensure there’s enough space for the Guard. The minimum required depth is 1.18 inches (3 cm). To measure, start at the front edge of the recess (farthest from the window) and measure to the shallowest point.

Watch for Obstructions

Common obstructions within your recess space include:

  • Window handles

  • Latches

  • Locks

  • Winders or cranks

Measuring with Obstructions

Even with a deep recess, obstructions can block proper installation. To check clearance:

1. Measure the recess depth from the front of the recess to the window.

2. Measure the obstruction depth from the window to the front of the obstruction.

3. Subtract the obstruction depth from the recess depth to find the unobstructed space.

Important: You need at least 1.18 inches (3 cm) of unobstructed recess space to install the Guard securely.

Step 2: Measuring the Width

Since windows are often not perfectly square, you need to measure the width in three different places to account for any unevenness:

  • Top of the window recess

  • Middle of the window recess

  • Bottom of the window recess

Record the smallest of these three measurements. This ensures your Guard fits the narrowest point of your window.

Step 3: Measuring the Height

Next, measure the height of your window recess. Once again take measurements from three locations:

  • Left of the window recess

  • Middle of the window recess

  • Right of the window recess

Just like with the width, record the smallest of these three measurements.

Avoid Common Measuring Mistakes

To get the most accurate measurements, avoid these common errors:

  • Measuring at an angle: Always hold the tape measure straight and level.

  • Bending the tape measure: Keep the tape straight to ensure accurate measurements.

  • Rounding incorrectly: Round to the nearest sixteenth of an inch (tenth of a centimeter) if needed.

Still unsure? Our comprehensive guide takes the guesswork out of measuring. Follow our step-by-step instructions for precise results and a seamless fit.

Installing your Guard is quick and straightforward and takes just 5 minutes. No tools are needed for the installation.

Step 1: Lay Out the Side Frames

Unpack the side frames and place them on a clean, flat surface, parallel to each other with their inner channels facing inward for assembly.

Step 2: Loosen the Screws

On the side frame without the fabric panel, use the included screwdriver to turn the two tension screws in either direction until the cords de-tension.

Step 3: Position the Top and Bottom Frames

Place the top and bottom frames parallel to each other, and verify that the numbered labels on the adjoining ends match.

Step 4: Connect the Frames

Connect all of the frames together by connecting the fabric and the side frame with the upper and lower frames.

Step 5: Tighten the Cords

Using the included screwdriver, turn the two screws in either direction until the internal cords tighten. Make sure the cords are tightened evenly on both sides.

Step 6: Insert the Corner Caps

Press-fit the 8 included corner caps onto all frame corners - 4 on the front side, 4 on the back side.

Step 7: Split the Weather Strip

Split the provided weather strip into two equal parts.

Step 8: Remove the Backing From the Weather Strip

Peel off the protective backing from the weather strip to expose the sticky side.

Step 9: Apply the Weather Strip

Apply the weather strip to all 4 sides of your Guard. Ensure all sides are properly covered without any gaps.

Step 10: Remove the Backing From the Brush Strip

Peel off the protective backing from the brush strip to expose the sticky side.

Step 11: Apply the Brush Strip

Apply the brush strip to all four sides of the frame, directly beside the weather strip.

Step 12: Insert and Test Guard

Place the blinds inside of your window recess. Test the blinds by opening and closing them.

FAQs

Guard features a unique track system that eliminates gaps between the blinds and the window frame to ensure total darkness. The dual-layered honeycomb fabric combines non-woven polyester with a reflective thermal barrier to block light, insulate against heat, and reduce noise.

The width of the frame is 1 inch, and the depth of the frame is 1.3 inches.

Yes, Quartz-colored blinds provide complete light blockage, just like the Graphite Guard Blinds.

Guard is designed to fit most standard window types, but there are a few considerations.

Guard won't fit windows that are not square. Additionally, the blinds require at least 1.18 inches of unobstructed recess space for proper installation. If your window doesn't meet these criteria, Guard may not be suitable for you.

To ensure correct measurements, please read our Measuring Guide. It's important that your measurements are accurate and precise, as they are crucial for the blinds to fit properly. Incorrect measurements will result in the blinds not fitting your windows.

Guard is low-maintenance. The non-woven polyester fabric resists dust and stains, requiring only occasional cleaning with a damp cloth. No special cleaners or treatments are necessary.

The interior of the Guard matches your fabric choice, while the exterior is always Quartz to reflect light. For example, if you select Graphite, the interior side will be Graphite, but the exterior will remain Quartz. This design ensures a uniform appearance from the outside and is intended to reflect light.

To install Guard, follow our step-by-step instructions in our Installation Guide.

To place an order for Guard, please follow these steps:

  1. Select a Color Combination: Choose from the four available color options for both the frame and the fabric to find the combination that best suits your space.
  2. Choose Size Ranges: Width Range: Select the range that your window's width falls into. This is a general range, not the exact measurement. Height Range: Select the range that your window's height falls into.
  3. Enter Exact Measurements: Input your window's exact width and height measurements in inches and sixteenths. This ensures a precise fit for your custom blinds.
  4. Add the Product to Cart: Once you've selected your options and entered your measurements, click the "Add to Cart" button. The cart drawer will open, allowing you to review your selection.
  5. Proceed to Checkout: Click on the "Checkout" button. You will be redirected to the checkout page where you can review your order and complete the payment process.

    Perfect curtain

    The blackout curtain does exactly what it promises: it blocks out the light very well and creates a dark, peaceful room. The material feels durable and the finish is neat. It’s also easy to install. Perfect for anyone who wants better sleep or to darken a space.

    I absolutely am satisfied with the results of the guards.

    I was a little hesitant because most things I see look good on film but when ordered the product is seldom what was expected.

    Love my new black-out blinds!

    Blinds arrived well packaged and were super easy to setup. The instructions in the box were very clear and they went to gather within minutes.

    I had to use some extra rubber around the corners to get a full black out view, but that was due to my house being a little off not the blinds.
