Are your wood blinds fire rated?
Asked by Rhondag ·
Thank you for your interest! None of our wood blinds are rated as flame retardant. I am not aware of any wood blinds that are sold in the United States that are flame retardant. There used to be a company that would coat real wood slats with a flame retardant coating. However, the cost was almost 5 times the cost of the blind itself. Our Fauxwood Blinds do have a flame retardant certification. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get more information.

I am getting inside mount blinds. The blinds I'm replacing were 34 1/2" wide and the window opening is 35". To get the blinds made so they will be 34 1/2" wide (current size) do I order 35" and the factory will deduct from that width to ensure fit?
Asked by Steve ·
Thank you for your interest! Yes, you would use the actual window opening width (smallest of the 3 measurements at the top, middle & bottom) to order your blinds.

Are the faux wood cherry room darkening blinds or what blind would you recommend for room darkening?
Asked by Cheryl C ·
Thank you for your interest! Horizontal blinds (including fauxwood, wood, aluminum, etc.) are not really considered to be room darkening. They will close so that it minimizes light and gives you complete privacy. However, because there are so many slats there will be residual light that will filter through the space between the slats. Normally when you want blackout or room darkening you go with a blackout honeycomb/cellular shade (most popular choice) or a fabric shade (roman with a blackout liner, roller, solar or bamboo with a blackout liner). The cellular shades, roman shades and bamboo shades will give the best blackout effect for inside mount blinds because the gaps on the side are smaller. However, with all inside mount shades/blinds there will be residual light around the edges of the window. To get a complete blackout you would need to make the shades wider than the window (at least 3" total) and mount them outside the window opening (above or to the sides). The wider you make the shades the less the residual light. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales if you need more detailed information.

Do you offer any other valance optionsperhaps something more simple/contemporary?
Asked by Nathan G ·
Thank you for your interest! Unfortunately, there is only one valance available for these blinds.

Which of your blinds can be measured with a 2" inside frame mount?
Asked by Jacalyn ·
Thank you for your interest! I'm not sure I understand your question but I'm going to try. These blinds can be mounted inside a window with as little as a 1-1/8" recess (depth of the window). However, some of the blind will extend outside of the window opening. You need 3" of recess to completely mount every part of the blind inside the window opening. The blinds extending outside the window is very common for inside mounted blinds. However, you do need a valance with returns (side pieces) that cover the side of the installation brackets to give it a more attractive, finished look. The only return size that is available on this product is 1-1/4". I think that will work if your window has a 2" recess. However, you may have to trim the returns if they are too long. You will need to order the valance with returns when you place your order for the blinds. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get the answers you need.

I am considering placing an order, but the pictures for the 2" deluxe faux wood blinds do not show the valance for the outside mounted blinds. Where can I pictures of the valance for these blinds?
Asked by TC ·
Thank you for your interest! We can send you a photo. Just email us at [email protected]. The valances for outside mount blinds have side pieces that cover the hardware. These side pieces are miter cut to join with the face of the valance to form a 3 sided box.

I have a glass patio door that I'd like to install these blinds on. It is not a sliding door but one stationary door and one that opens in. I would install them on the wood surface of the door. My question has to do with the size of these blinds. Could I use the 2" blinds or would you suggest either the 1" faux wood blinds or to go even smaller with the mini or micro-mini blinds? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Asked by Eveline R ·
Thank you for your interest! 1" blinds are the most common size put on doors. The 1" fauxwood blind colors will match the 2" colors in most cases. However, 2" blinds are also used. The only difference is the distance they extend away from the door. This might make a difference if your door opens in a way that would touch a wall. Please call a sales agent at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get more information.

Hi - Will these Faux Wood blinds block light? We currently have aluminum mini blinds on a window on the opposite side of our TV, and the glare makes it impossible to watch TV.
Asked by Josh ·
Thank you for our interest. The 2" Deluxe Faux Wood Blinds will block glare when they are closed.
