Thanks for your answer to my previous question ( What are the headrail requirements?......These only need a minimum of 2/3" so you will be able to mount the headrail in there just fine. In order for it to be a complete flush mount you would need 2 1/2" of depth. If your window has only 2" of depth, the headrail of these shades will mount OK, you will just have about 1/2" of the headrail coming out past the window opening.) My follow up question - does this mean the mounting bracket will be visible 1/2" or just the shade sticks out a bit? Thanks!
Asked by Anna ·
Hello Anna, thanks for the follow up question! First, I need to correct my previous response in regards to minimum depth. The minimum depth for this product is 3/4". I believe that you may have a little bit of the bracket stick out as well. Depending on how tall your window is though, you may not be able to see much of it as the bracket is on top of the headrail.

What are the headrail requirements? I have a 2" depth for an inside mount. Will this work? Thank you.

Hello Anna, thank you for your question! These only need a minimum of 3/4" of an inch so you will be able to mount the headrail in there just fine. In order for it to be a complete flush mount you would need 2 1/2" of depth. If your window has only 2" of depth, the headrail of these shades will mount OK, you will just have about 1/2" of the headrail coming out past the window opening.

When viewing shades from outside looking in, does the PRIVACY lining block out figures at night when lights are on in the room? Or do I need to go to BLACKOUT lining for that purpose?
Asked by Diane ·
Hi Diane, thank you for your inquiry! You are going to be able to see in through these shades at night. What ever you were able to see out during the daytime, someone will be able to see in that same amount during night when the lights are on. You will want to go blackout if you are wanting complete privacy in that regard.

Hi, my 100-year-old house has old-timey double-hung wooden sash windows. They have vertical trim pieces (that keep the windows in place) about an inch in from the outer face of the windows. Is an inner mount possible here, or will we have to go with an outer mount? Gre
Asked by Gregg ·
Hi Gregg, thank you for you question. It's hard to say for sure without seeing a picture of the window opening, a lot of times I believe these end up being outside mount situations. Feel free to email us a picture at [email protected] and that way we can tell you for sure!

Hi do you have any photos of what these look like looking inside from outside? Does the liner appear on the backside and if so what color is it? Can you do top up/bottom down with a privacy liner?
Asked by Carmen ·
Hello Carmen, thank you for your inquiry. Unfortunately, I do not have a picture from the outside looking in, but yes, if you add on the liner option, the liner will be seen on the back of the shades. Depending on which color you select, the liner color will either be a Soft White or Grey color. Freeport Titanium, Bayonne White/ Grey, Freeport Grey privacy light filtering liner will be GREY (all others will receive the Soft White privacy light filtering liner) You are able to combine the top/down bottom/up lift type with a liner.

I have replacement windows in my home and there is only 1" in depth from the surface of the windows to the surface of my trim. I want to install bamboo shades (inside mount) which will then have long curtains over them. How would you recommend I mount shades with such a narrow depth? Is there some kind of bracket? Thanks in advance for your help
Asked by Lisa ·
Hello Lisa, thank you for your question! As long as you have 3/4" of depth in your window openings you will be able to top mount this shade inside your window opening with the standard installation bracket. Based on your 1" depth, it will stick out about 1 1/2" past your window frame though. You should be able to still stick curtains in front of the shades, there would just be the possibility that you may just have to extend the curtains a little bit.

Are these top down/bottom up? Can they be mounted outside the window frame?
Asked by Suzanne P ·
Hello Suzanne M., thank you for your inquiry. Yes, these can be customized and have the top down/bottom up lift feature added on to them. They can also be measured and ordered as an outside mount.

I have a block of three large windows that there is no separation between. I noticed that you can order two blinds with the same head rail would that be an advantage with my windows of three or can I order one with three blinds approximately the blinds are like 45 or 48 inches wide I haven't measured them exactly right now. I'm also thinking about top down bottom up feature and a liner. What would be my best scenario?
Asked by Jean W ·
Hello Jean W., thank you for your inquiry. I would suggest ordering 3 separate shades and installing them all side by side. This will allow you to order these with the top down/bottom up lift type as well. Give us a call at 888-256-8672, option "1" for Sales if you would like assistance with how to order.
