A useful way through
- Describe the room: furniture, circulation, views, privacy and the practical need for opening. Record approximate dimensions for discussion, not for manufacture.
- Compare how each proposed opening moves. Check whether it conflicts with curtains, walkways or furniture.
- Ask the supplier for exact product performance, maintenance and applicable installation requirements. Have required safety and building compliance checked locally.
- Request an itemised proposal covering survey, manufacture, installation, finishing and disposal. Approve the measured design before manufacture.

Put it into practice
An inward-opening design may clash with an existing blind. The drawing should show both, so the problem is resolved before installation rather than discovered afterwards.
Illustrative example, not a reported client project or test.
