I am about to order a 2 1/2 inch wood blind for my kitchen window. I measured my window width and it is 56 1/2 inches. My question is will these blinds move smoothly up and down or should I allow for space on each side of the blind?
Asked by Teresa ·
Thank you so much for your interest! When ordering inside mount (mounted inside the window opening) blinds you should use the width of the actual window opening (smallest of the measurements at the top, middle & bottom of the window). The factory will make the proper width deduction when manufacturing any blind that is ordered as inside mount. That deduction (in this case 1/2 inch) will allow the blind to fit inside the brackets and move freely in the window.

where do the materials come from?
Asked by Stephanie ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Most of the materials sued to make the shades are actually imported. However, these blinds are manufactured here in the United States using these foreign components.

I bought premium faux wood blinds back in August for my dining room. I want the same style for my living room, however when I bought the ones in August (and others I bought before that), I was able to order them with the "Routless" option. I'm trying to order my blinds now and I can't find the "Routless" option. My old order was: 606802

I ordered 21/2 inch premium wood blinds. My windows have about 5" depth. What is the better way to mount them. Closer to the window or leave a 1.5 inch gap between the window and the blinds. Which one gives a better look.
Asked by Reddynandipati ·
Thank you so much for your interest! 2 1/2 inch blinds need to be mounted at least 1/2" away from the window itself. Determining where to mount them (depth wise) is really just a matter of personal taste.

Questions on the bottom row of pics on the slideshow: 1) On the first pics from the left, what are the wooden colored pieces on the strings? 2) ON the next to last pic on the right, what's the screw with the blue insert?
Asked by Gerry M ·
Thank you so much for your interest! 1. The wooden pieces on the strings are decorative tassels that cover the ends of the lift and tilt cords. 2. The screw with the blue insert is the magnetic valance attachments that are screwed to the back of the valance (not visible).

Is the "Smooth Cherry" color red or like a cherrywood stain you'd see on cabinets, etc.? On my monitor, it looks like a brown/cherry wood stain.
Asked by Kate ·
Thank you so much for your interest! The Smooth Cherry has only a slight reddish tint. We really recommend that you order samples if you are trying to match a color.

I have sliding patio doors .Do you make blinds for these? I would like a separate blind for each of the two doors but would like a single head rail.
Asked by Tony ·
Thank you so much for your interest! These blinds can be mounted over a sliding glass door. You just put in the overall width and choose the 2on1 option. You will then need to put the size for each blind. Please call one of our sales agents at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales if you have more questions.
