Consideration and Recommendations
- To lift heavier or larger-scale shades, add a beaded chain.
- Eliminate the possibility of cord entanglement with the hassle-free, cordless spring tension roller option.
- We recommend convenient remote control motorization for high out of reach windows.
- If you want the fabric to feed over the top rather than from the back of the roller tube, choose a reverse roll at no extra charge. It’ll be an ideal option if your blind needs to pass in front of a window or handle.
- To add a finishing touch to your window or elevate the look of your room, order a valance for the top of your shade. However, a valance cannot be used in conjunction with a reverse roll.
- As the fabric must be cut narrower than the operating mechanisms at the top, inside-mounted blackout roller shades will have an about 1-inch vertical light gap between the window casing and the edge of the fabric. We recommend light gap blockers to avoid light gaps on the side of the blinds.
