Comprehensive Description

Before installation, be mindful of obstacles in the window opening, such as cranks or handles, which can impede proper shade installation.

When measuring for your roller shade, remember that the fabric width is typically around 1/4 inch (0.635 cm) smaller than the valance size (order width) provided.

Inside Mount

 

• Width Measurement

Order width includes the width of the valance.

Measure the top width inside the window frame and round down to the nearest 1/8 inch.

ORDER AT THE EXACT OPENING SIZE WITH NO DEDUCTIONS.

Inside mounts are classified as Top Mount and Side Mount.

The default option when placing an order is Top Mount. The factory will make a small deduction of approximately 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) during production to ensure a safe and proper installation.

 

Attention: Please check if your windows have a splayed or recessed frame. If they do, measure the shortest width and use that measurement when placing your order; otherwise, the shades may not fit in the frame.

• Height Measurement

Order Height = Measured Window Height + 4 inches (for optimal appearance)

Measure the middle height inside the window frame and round up to the nearest 1/8 inch.

Make sure to get the most exact measurement for the height.

Outside Mount

• Width Measurement

Order width includes the width of the valance.

Measure the exact width of the window frame or the desired width for the blind.

• Height Measurement

Order height includes the height of the valance.

Measure the desired height for the blind by measuring from top to bottom.

Adding 3 to 6 inches (7.6 to 15.2 cm) to the exact height is recommended to cover the entire window and provide maximum light coverage.
