Inside Recess / Mount
Step A - Measure the top width inside the window opening. If tiles or other materials cover part of the inside of the opening, consider measuring the opening at its narrowest spot and recording that measurement.
Step B - Measure the middle height inside the window opening.
Step C - Measure the depth of the window opening from the front edge back to the first obstruction. To mount inside the window frames, a minimum depth of 2"inches or 5 cm is required. Consider obstacles such as cranks, handles, and window opening directions.
Step A - Measure the width of the window opening. For windows without trim add 4-6” inches or ( 10 - 15 cm ) per side, for windows with trim measure to outer edges of trim.
Step B - Measure the height of the window opening. For windows without trim add 4 - 6” inches or ( 10 - 15 cm ) , for windows with trim measure to the outer edges of trim.
