Width: top, middle, bottomHeight: left and rightRecessed: smallest width · Surface: largest widthHeight: always the smallest measurement

  1. Step 01

    Measure the width

    Measure the opening in three places: top, middle, and bottom. For a recessed or inside mount, use the smallest width so the screen fits inside the opening. For an outside surface mount, use the largest width so the housing and tracks cover the opening. Confirm the mounting surface is plumb and level.

  2. Step 02

    Measure the height

    Measure the height on the left and right sides, from the top header down to the floor or sill. Always use the smallest measurement so the finished screen will fit the opening.

  3. Step 03

    Note obstructions and power

    Motorized screens require a hardwired 120-volt supply — they are not plug-in. Mark where that power is available and which side the motor should sit on. Account for the housing and side tracks so they do not block doorways, lights, or other fixtures.
