I’m looking for a creamy white shade as opposed to a stark white. Can you tell me is the Daylight color more creamy white without yellow hue?

I have a patio door with a glass panel that I would like to cover. There is trim around the glass panel that has a depth of less than 1/4". If I do an outside mount and install this above the glass trim, will I be able to pull the shade down?
Asked by Erin ·
Hello Erin, thank you for your question! Most of our products will clear at least 1/2" trim, so it will depend on how far your trim protrudes. To discuss your installation further, please reach out to our customer service at [email protected] or 1-888-256-8672, Mon-Fri 8a-5p CST.

Are they easy to clean and maintain?
Asked by Virginia Y ·
Hello Virginia, thank you for your question about the No Tools Cordless Blackout Single Cellular Shades! Yes, these shades are easy to clean and maintain. To keep your Blindster shade looking as pristine as the day you bought it, wipe the head rail and bottom rail with a damp sponge on a regular basis to remove dirt and dust. To clean the shade fabric, use a feather duster or vacuum with a soft brush attachment to avoid damaging the shade. Let us know if you have any further questions!

Do the lighter colors of blackout blinds block as much light as the darker colors?
Asked by Cheryl H ·
Hello Cheryl, thank you for your question about the No Tools Cordless Blackout Single Cellular Shades. Due to the mylar lining used to block light, all of the colors will give you the same blackout effect.

IF the "no tools required" shades (outside mount) are used on a door, do the bottom door brackets come with adhesive strips as well or do they need to be screwed into the door?
Asked by David ·
Hi David! The bottom door brackets come with screws, but many customers use their own double-sided adhesive instead to avoid drilling.

Hello, How wide are the stick on brackets? I have only 1 1/2 inches at the top of the windows. Thank you.
Asked by Veronica ·
Hello Veronica, thank you for your question regarding our No Tools Cordless Blackout Single Cellular Shades. The brackets for these shades require 2 1/8 inches. If possible, you may want to consider the Cordless Blackout Single Cellular Shades. These shades require 1 3/8 inches and would need to be drilled into your window openings.

I need to do an outside mount to cover the window in a commercial steel door. There is about 4" of flat door panel on each side of the window, but I see from another question that the adhesive mounting brackets are 5" wide. Could I cut off part - like almost half - of the bracket to make it narrower so that 1) it will not extend beyond the edges of the door and 2) it won't show - won't extend past the ends of the headrail? I realize this would mean less adhesive area = weaker adhesion but it's a small window (24w x 28h) so the shade should not weigh much. Advice appreciated. PS There is only about 1/2" clearance above the top of the window before interfering with a door closer, so mounting anything above the top of the window is not an option.

Do you use glue to install
Asked by John C ·
Hello John! Our No Tools products come with mounting brackets that have 3M adhesive built into them. All you will need to do is stick the 3M adhesive bracket into your desired location in your window frame, snap in the shade, then you are done. No extra tools, glue, tape, etc. is needed. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
