## Options

Prices are what an option adds to a 24" × 36" order; most grow with the size.

### Mount

Mount type determines how you will install the blind. Choose inside mount if your blind will be mounted inside the window opening/frame. Choose outside mount if your blind will be mounted outside the window opening to trim, a wall, or a door.

- Inside Mount: Inside mount blinds are installed inside the window opening. Enter the exact size of the window opening NOT the size of the blind. The factory will make a small deduction from your width to allow space for the hardware operation.
- Outside Mount: Outside mount blinds are installed outside the window opening to trim, a wall, or a door. Enter the exact size of the blind you want to order. The factory will make 1/4" deduction to the headrail only; blind slats will remain the same size as ordered.

### Lift Type

The lift type determines how you raise or lower this product.

- Cordless: Rather than cords, simply grab the bottom rail and lift and lower your blind. Cordless offers a clean look and is safer in homes with kids or pets.

### Tilt Type

The tilt mechanism opens and closes the slats on horizontal blinds.

- Wand Tilt: Adjust the blind's slats by turning a wand.

### Tilt Position

The location of the tilt mechanism.

Offered with: Wand Tilt.

- Left: The tilt location is on the left-hand side.
- Right: The tilt location is on the right-hand side.

### Valance Style

Decorative piece that covers the headrail. Choose between 3 different valance styles for this product.

- 3" Decorative Valance
- 3" Modern Valance
- 3" Crescent Valance

### Spacer Blocks (optional)

Used to create more depth on Outside Mount applications. Spacer blocks will add an extra 3/8" of depth.

- No: Spacer blocks are not necessary for all windows and are only used in certain Outside Mounting applications.
- Yes: This is for an outside mount only! Spacer blocks add clearance for the blind if the trim around your window interferes. Spacer blocks will add an extra 3/8" of depth.

### Door Brackets (Hold Downs) (optional)

Door Brackets (Hold downs) secure the window covering to the wall or to a door, limiting the movement of the window covering. For example when a door is opening and closing. These are for outside mounts only.

- No Door Brackets: Hold downs are not necessary for all windows and are only used in certain Outside Mounting applications.
- Yes Door Brackets: These are used when outside mounting to a door. The brackets secure the bottom rail of the blinds to the door in order to prevent swaying.

## How to measure

### Inside Mount

Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window! Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth:

- Measure inside the window opening from the back of the window to the front of the opening where the blind would mount. The depth at the top of the window must be at least 1 1/8" to mount the brackets. To have a flush mount (meaning the blind is fully recessed in the window opening) the depth must be at least 3 1/2". If your depth is not sufficient for mounting the brackets, please see our outside mount instructions or consider a different product.

How to Measure:

Let's start with the Width:

- Measure inside of the window opening/frame from left to right to the nearest 1/8" at three places: at the top of the opening, the middle of the opening, and then the bottom of the opening. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the narrowest. If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering width.

Now, let's do the Height:

- Measure the inside of the window opening/frame from the top of the opening to the bottom of the opening/sill to the nearest 1/8" in three places: on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. That is your ordering height.

Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/2" to your blind's width (and 3/4" for the headrail) to allow room for installation and for proper movement of the blind within the window opening. No deductions will be made to your height.

### Outside Mount

Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your blind. You will need at least 1 3/4" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets. The blind can be installed directly above the window opening, or higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the blind is raised.

If you have trim around the window, you can mount the blind above the trim, directly on the trim (if you have the required minimum flat space for the brackets), or to the sides of the trim if you do not enough mounting space above the window or on the trim itself. See the directions below for how you'd like to install your blind.

If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product.

#### Above the Window (No Trim)

Width:

- Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the blind extends about 2" on each side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance.
- Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including your desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width.

Height:

- Consider how far above the window you would like to install your blind but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. The blind can be positioned higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the blind is raised.
- Measure from the top of where you will mount the blind on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the blind to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. The blind will be made to the height you order with a minimal + 3/4" tolerance.

#### Above The Trim

Width:

- Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the blind extends about 2" on either side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance. You can also choose to have the blind the same width as your window trim.
- Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including any desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width.

Height:

- Consider how far above the window you would like to install your blind but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. The blind can be positioned higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the blind is raised.
- Measure from the top of where you will mount the blind on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the blind to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above, or to the bottom edge of the trim if you prefer; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. The blind will be made to the height you order with a minimal + 3/4" tolerance.

Note: We provide complimentary spacer blocks upon request. These go behind the installation brackets to position the blind away from the wall and prevent the blind from hitting the frame. Spacer blocks add an additional 3/8" of depth for installation. Note that the valance returns (the side pieces that wrap around the headrail) will be made 3/8" longer when requesting spacer blocks.

#### On The Trim

Width:

- Confirm that the height of your trim is at least the minimum height required for installing the mounting brackets. At the top of your window, use a steel measuring tape and measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim. That is your ordering width.

Height:

- Measure from the top of your trim to the bottom of your trim or to the top of the windowsill if you have a protruding sill. That is your ordering height. The blind will be made to the height you order with a minimal + 3/4" tolerance.

#### Door Mount

Width:

- Using a metal tape measure, measure left to right from the outside edge of the trim piece that goes around the glass to the other outside edge. That is your ordering width. However, if you have space, it is best to order the blind about 2" wider for better light control.

Height:

- Consider how far above the window trim piece you would like to install your blind but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Measure down to where you want the bottom of the blind to be, using the same extra space below the window trim piece as you used above. That is your ordering height. The blind will be made to the height you order with a minimal + 3/4" tolerance.

Note: We carry complimentary hold-downs (door brackets) which can be requested during the ordering process. These should be installed for a successful door mount as they secure the blind at the bottom of the door so that it does not swing when the door opens and closes.

All 5 blinds have fit perfectly and have installed in 15 - 20 minutes each. No muss, no fuss. I am considered a decent handyman but I always dreaded window coverings. These blinds are actually fun to install. I also thought the pricing was very fair and since the other factors are so good, I feel very proud of my purchases and the look is great.
