I want to see the top of the blinds, at the ends. Is that called a valance? I've been disappointed with other blinds that simply have the ends cut off. Other blinds I have include an end cap that creates a beveled look at the ends. This is what I want. Are there photos available?

Thank you for your interest! Inside mount blinds usually come with a flat valance that is designed to fit inside the window. The valance is make 1/8" narrower than the ordered width. For everything (including the valance) to fit inside the window you need a 3" recess (for 2" blinds). Some windows don't have a 3" recess and some customers. For this there is a valance that has returns (side pieces that create a 3 sided box to cover the side of the brackets). In order to use a valance with returns you need to mount the installation brackets so that they extend 1/4" outside the window and order smaller returns (1 1/4" is all that is available on the Super Value or Deluxe Fauxwood or the Super Value Wood Blinds or a minimum of 1" on all the Premium Blinds). To get a valance with returns on an inside mount blind you will need to put a note on the blind that you want returns (along with the size you want). It usually is easier to order blinds with returns by letting one of our sales representatives take your order. They will ask the questions that help insure that you mount the blinds properly and that the returns are the right size. There are photos on our website of the valance but it is a flat valance. On every product there is a row of photos below the large photo on the page. Simply use the arrow key to scroll over to look at all the photos. Unfortunately, I cannot add an attachment to this reply but I do have a photo of a blind with short returns.

Can we get hold down brackets if we order 2 binds for French doors?
Asked by Shari ·
If we were to order blinds for french doors, we would expect the order to include hold down brackets.

My Windows have an oAk trim. The other Windows in my house have a white trim. Is it better to follow suit and install white blinds or get the oAk to match th r trim. Thank you

If you want the focal point to be the window, then go with the Oak. If you want the windows to blend or something else to be the focal point then order the White. Please feel free to call our sales team at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales for more detailed advice.
