I have one blind that is outside mount on an outside door. It is a 2" faux wood blind with a 3" valence that also has side pieces. What is the recommended method to secure the side pieces to the front valence. I am not sure of wood glue, white glue or some other adhesive is best.
Asked by Gary ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Our fauxwood blinds come with L brackets that attach the side pieces (they're called returns) to the face of the valance. If you are missing your brackets we will be happy to send you new ones. You can glue the returns with a glue that will work on PVC.

Is it possible to get blinds that hang on the inside of the window, but have the crown molding at the top be on the outside of the window?
Asked by Dan ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Yes, you can get a valance that will mount on the outside of the window. You have a choice of return sizes (side pieces that cover the installation brackets on the side) at 1 1/4" or 3 1/2". In order to use these your blinds would have to be mount so that the brackets are partially outside the window. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get more detailed information.

I want to order the 2" Premium blinds with no route holes. I don't see that option in the ordering guide. How do I specify them to come without the holes?
Asked by Erik ·
Thank you so much for your interest! The only routeless blinds we have are the 2" Premium Privacy Wood Blinds.

When I order the two blinds with one headrail, am I to input the size of the window, or the size of one bMarylind, then order the other blind separately?
Asked by Mary ·
Thank you so much for your interest! To order a 2on1 headrail you order with the overall width of the window (smallest measurement at the top, middle & bottom). When you choose the 2on1 headrail option the fields will appear for you to enter each individual blind size (our default will split the blinds equally in half but you can change it if needed) and control positions. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales if you want to place your order by phone.

Do i give exact measurement of the window to order blinds?
Asked by Cheryl N ·
Thank you so much for your order. Every product has slightly different measuring instructions on the product page. In general, if you are ordering blinds to be mounted inside the window opening: Order the width based on the window opening width (smallest width measurement at the top, middle & bottom of the window). Order the height based on the window opening height (longest height measurement at both sides). For outside mount you would order the blinds at the exact size you want to cover. You will need to add enough height or width to accommodate the installation brackets (minimum flat space needed for the brackets is listed in the specifications for each product). We recommend adding at least 3" to the height and width (if you have the room). Please remember that some products will have different instructions (i.e., roller shades, sheer shades, etc.), so check he measuring instructions on our website for the product you want to order. Please call one of our sales reps at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get the product specific information.

Do you replace blinds damaged in shipping. Several reviews complained about shipping damage.
Asked by Robert B ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Yes, we replace damaged blinds. Unfortunately, ship damage is one of our biggest challenges because blinds/shades are heavy and awkwardly shaped. We do require that you notify us of the ship damage within 10 days after receiving the blinds.

Does this blind have a support bracket in the middle?
Asked by B R ·
Thank you so much for your interest! The blinds will have a center support bracket if they measure more than 48" wide. If the width is less than that they won't need a center support bracket.

Can the individual blind slats slide out to be cleaned?
Asked by Giles B ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Unfortunately, the blind slats are not removable. The most common way to clear blinds is to dust the slats. Although, fauxwood slats can be wiped with a damp cloth.
Answered by Blindster ·
When fully raised, how much vertical space would a 48" long shade occupy? We do not want to restrict our view out our window by taking up some of the headspace at the top of the window, so we would like to do an outside mount and place it above the window frame, which is slightly raised. (My husband is very tall & would have to duck to see out the window if the top of the view were brought any lower.) How much above the window frame would a shade need to be installed to ensure that it does not cover the window in any way? Is there a chart that would show this statistic for your other products, such as honeycomb blinds?
Asked by Cook M ·
thank you for your interest! The stack on these shades (varies by product) would be approximately 5". The stack height does not vary by height (the change in height would matter with most other products).

What is the difference between the white and white embossed faux wood blinds?
Asked by Jenny ·
Thank you for your interest!. The white slats have a smooth surface and the white embossed is textured, similar to a sandblasted wood look.
