How are these with light for a bedroom?
Asked by Tim ·
These allow less light to come through since they are routeless blinds.
Answered by Blindster ·
I have a sunroom and would like to hang blinds in the windows and the sliding glass door, do you have any suggestions? The window sills are metal and they are only 1/2" deep so I would need an outside mount. I did see a blind that mounts with a Magnet of some kind, but they only come in three sizes none of which would work for my situation. Hope you have some suggestions for me?

Hi Peggy, our only shades that will mount without screws is our No Tools Cellular Shade. https://www.blindster.com/cellular-shades/single-cell-cordless-no-tools/

Whitney 10/24/16 A: Thank you for your interest! The 2" Premium Wood Blinds have a metal headrails that is 2" (top to bottom) and 2 1/4" (front to back). The installation brackets are 1/8" larger than the headrail. You need 1 1/8" depth to install the blinds inside the window. Obviously, some of the blind will be outside the window. So you will need returns (side pieces on the valance to cover the side of the brackets) to make your blinds look nice. We will need to know the amount of your recess to get you the correct return sizes. You need 3" depth to fully install the blinds inside the window. If the headrail is 2 1/4 and the brackets 1/8 deeper, doesn't that make the entire upper apparatus 2 1/2 deep? I have very standard window frames with the window 4-5" deep from the wall, yet the flat part inside the frame is only 2" deep. Do you have any options to hang 2" blinds inside without requiring 3" depth? Or recommendations where to find this? Thanks

I have a quarter-circle (38"w x 38"h) atop a 38"w x 48"h window. If I order the 38"w x 48"h blinds for the bottom portion of the window, can I buy slats (only) to create a fan-like covering (would be stationary) for the top portion. [Or do you construct this - retractactable OR stationary]
Asked by Jay ·
Hi Jay, unfortunately we do not sell slats separately and we do not offer any options for circular, half moon or quarter circle windows. I do apologize.

How do you order French door windows
Asked by Janet ·
Hi Janet! As long as you have about an inch space between the window and the knob, you can measure it as an outside mount: https://www.blindster.com/documents/faux-wood-measuring.pdf If you still need help, give us a call and we will happily walk you through everything.

Which white is closest to the cottage white in the distressed wood blinds? Also, which are the snowflake white and white among the pictures shown? Thanks.
Asked by Yes ·
Hi Liza, in terms of a color match the color White most closely matches cottage. However, the distressed pattern would not be there. The blinds would just be plain white. If need be, we can send you free samples to compare shades of white.

do you make horizontal blinds?
Asked by Kay ·
Yes, these are our wood horizontal blinds, but we also have faux wood and aluminum. We also have vertical blinds.
Answered by Blindster ·
I really like these blinds for my kitchen but I also have a sliding patio door in the kitchen. Do these also come in a vertical blind for a door.
Asked by Valued C ·
Hi there. We don't offer the distressed wood blinds in a vertical blinds, however, we do have various faux wood options for vertical blinds. https://www.blindster.com/vertical-blinds/faux-wood-vertical-blinds/

I have a high ceiling, about 24', and a window on either side of the brick fireplace (nearly touching the ceiling). Both windows are 36"x 48", each with a 36" quarter circle above. Therefore, the required blinds would be 7' on the inside, and 4' on the outside, by a 36" width. Can the valence be constructed on an angle such that the top would be parallel to the ceiling, and the bottom be parallel to the floor. Thanks.
Asked by Jay ·
Hi Jay, Unfortunately we do not have anything that can cover any specialty shaped windows at this time. Thank you for your time.
