Measuring: I measured my own blinds!
Installation: I installed my own blinds!
We purchased these for our master bedroom and our daughter's bedroom. We were tired of the roller shades losing their tension, falling down, etc.
I measured and installed them myself; ordered them and paid online. I had them in 7 business days as promised. These are very high quality and were so easy to install. It took me about 5 minutes for each window, including opening the box. Mine came with 3 brackets each (which probably varies depending on the size of the window). Each bracket comes with two screws. After you install the brackets, you simply snap the top rail of the blinds into place.
The room darkening ability was very surprising. I was skeptical when I took them out of the box but after I installed them and closed the blinds, each room looked as if it were in the middle of the night instead of afternoon. The only light comes in from the cracks along the edges but we have curtains that cover the edges so it is extremely dark in the room.
Nine of the twelve windows in our house are now covered with Blinds Chalet products and we have always received excellent service, quality and value from them.
The only things you really have to be careful with are the factors within your control - colors and measuring. Always order samples (which they make free and convenient) since colors on computer screens are very unreliable. Always read the measuring instructions (because they vary based on the application) and measure two or three times to be sure you have the correct measurements. If you do those two things, you can count on Blinds Chalet to do the rest.
I highly recommend this product and Blinds Chalet to anyone.
