The shade is mounted inside the window opening for a clean, tailored look. When selecting the size of your blinds, enter the exact dimensions of your window opening. Do NOT enter the size of an old/existing blind. The factory will make the necessary deductions for a proper fit. Please make sure your window meets the minimum inside mount depth required to accommodate the brackets, or the flush mount depth if desired. Depth requirements can be found on the product page.
The shade is mounted on the wall or window trim outside and above the window, covering an area larger than the window opening. Outside mount is required if your window opening is not deep enough to install the blind as an inside mount or if you want to make your window appear larger than it is. When measuring your blinds make sure to adjust the size for proper overlap.
Raises and lowers the shade using either a looped stainless steal chain or a plastic beaded nylon cord. Pulling the loop cord/chain in one direction will raise the shade and pulling the cord/chain in the opposite direction will lower the shade. Uses a clutch system for reliable performance. The looped cord stays at the same length regardless of the position of the shade. Eliminates the traditional dangling cord, adding child safety and a neater appearance. Includes a tension device at the bottom of the chain for added child safety.
