Is it possible to order just the vertical blind itself, i.e. replacements?
Asked by Elizabeth ·
Thank you so much for your interest! We normally do not sell just the vanes for the verticals. Our one exception is if you need to replace vanes on blinds that were originally purchased from us. There are a couple of reasons: Our vanes may not work with the headrails of vertical blinds purchased somewhere else and the vanes typically cost just as much as a new vertical blind.

When the blinds stack to one side or the other, does the wand/chain also stack to that side? Or is the wand/chain static?
Asked by Robert ·
Thank you so much for your interest! The wand moves with the blinds and will have to be positioned on the opposite side of the stack. The chain/cord option is stationary and can be on either side.

We ordered blackout blinds for our 12 windows from you guys in our back room already & they are great! We have installed a sliding back door & need vertical blinds for it now. But we want to them to also be as blackout as the rest of the blinds. Are the vertical blinds going to be as good as what we have installed or should we be thinking of another direction? This door has the most light & faces the tv so we need it to block as much light as possible so we can see.
Asked by Tressa S ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Unfortunately, blinds are never as good at blackout as some other window coverings. Residual light will usually filter in the gaps between the slats or vanes of the blinds. There are vertical blinds that will not allow light through the vanes: Fauxwood Verticals and Fabric Verticals (with the PVC backing only). They should block enough light for the TV when they are fully closed. However, there will still be a halo effect of light.

Can vertical blinds be mounted inside window frame?
Asked by Russell ·
Thank you so much for your interest! Yes, you can mount vertical blinds inside the window frame. You need at least 2 1/4" of depth (recess) to mount the blinds inside the window. However, some of the blind will extend outside the window opening. You need a minimum of 3" depth to have every part of the blind inside the window opening.

Asked by Judi t ·
Thank you for your interest! The price for the 42 x 48 Embossed PVC Vertical Blinds will be $69.39 each (our current promotion). For the 41 x 63 the price would be $80.75 and for the 24 x 64 it would be $65.13 each. These prices are for basic shades that include the valance. There will be additional charge for some options (if you choose them). You can price your shades on our website by putting your width and height on the category page or on the product page. For option pricing, you would need to go to "Customize & Buy". We encourage you to get samples of the vanes to make sure you get the right color.

I have a sliding glass door 77" wide and the the vertical slats are 82 1/2 "
Asked by Joanne ·
Thank you for your interest! I'm not sure I understand your concerns but I will try to give you some information. Most vertical blinds for sliding glass doors are mounted above or to the side of the opening. You need a minimum of 2" (top to bottom) of flat wall space to mount the brackets. We recommend that you add at least 3" (if space allows) to the opening width and height for the best coverage. Please call 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales to get more detailed information.

I have a Bay Window. Would I order 3 separate blinds and is there a cornice that works for that application? Thank you
Asked by Linda P ·
Thank you for your interest! We don't have a cornice but the blinds do come with a valance. Bay windows can be tricky and it would probably be best for you to call one of our sales agents at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales. They will be able to help you get what you need.
