MEASURING
  • Measure exact width A and length B of the window opening as shown. The factory will deduct the necessary allowance off of the shade for clearance. Please mark (IB) as the inside mount. On all inside mounts, a small light gap may appear.

  • Measure exact width A and length B of the window opening you wish to cover. The shade should cover the window opening by at least 2 inches on both the width and length or to cover the sill C. Please mark (OB) as
    the outside mount.

A valance is supplied with your order in one of the following styles, depending on how your blind will be mounted. For a more custom look, the valance and returns may be special ordered to your measurements. 

 

NOTE: Valances with returns are measured and cut from the INSIDE of the miter to ensure the most accurate fit when installed over the headrail or window frame. 

 

Blinds ordered as an OUTSIDE MOUNT will be supplied with returns sized to cover the end of the blind back to the mounting surface. If projection brackets are requested when the blind is ordered, longer returns will be sent automatically. Outside mount blinds are available without returns upon request.
