Roller Blinds -made to measure

I have a window that measures 79cm wide by 120 cm long. I can get the size 80cm by 120cm quite easily in most shops but as i am 1cm shorter in width am wary of buying one in case its too long in width. Can the standard 80cm wide one be shortened/adjusted to make it 79cm wide or is it easier to get one made with these exact dimensions?
Thanks

Some roller blinds can be shortened in length, but some can't, so ask before you buy.0

Most can be shortened with a small hacksaw and scissors. Read the instructions on the boxYou scullion! You rampallian! You fustilarian! I’ll tickle your catastrophe (Henry IV part 2)0

In case the thought passed you by, consider a larger blind mounted outside the recess - maybe easier maybe not of course.0
