  • I would like to order exterior shades with the bungee cord to minimize the blowing. How do the bungee cords work? Can I attach them to cement?

    Asked by Lisa S ·

    Hello Lisa, Bungee cords attached to the bottom of the roller shades and can stretch to help the material bend with the wind or the tighter you make them can restrict them from bending at all.

  • do you need a bungees hold down on both side of a shade

    Asked by Drnoreen ·

    Hello Natalie, For the bungee system to work well you will need both bungee hold downs.

  • What is the bottom rail made of? Is it weighted at all or hollow?

    Asked by Anne ·

    Hello Anne, thank you for your interest! On this product the hem bar is made of metal. It will be a flat hem bar when ordered without bungee hold downs and will be a round metal tube when ordered with the bungee hold downs.

  • I have an 80" tall window which is 3' off the ground. Will I be able to easily reach the loop chain mechanism?

    Asked by Anita ·

    Hello Anita, the cord loop will be approximately two-thirds the height of the shade. The bottom of the chain should be around 6 feet off of the ground.

  • I am looking to put outdoor roller shades on my screened porch. According to your info it seems to me I cant meet up at the 90 degree corners. What options do I have?

    Asked by Kevin K ·

    Hi Kevin, thanks for your question! You may be able to do the "butt and bypass" method. One shade mounts all the way into the corner and then the other shade will butt up against the shade. The one that butts up against the shade will be shorter than the window opening to accommodate for the bypass shade that does reach the corner of the window.

  • Can both the upper mounting brackets and bungee brackets be mounted to an aluminum pool cage? Any idea what extra hardware is required? Thanks!

    Asked by Grant ·

    Hello Grant, thank you for your question! The brackets that we send out will work for the installation and bungee hold downs, you may need to buy a different type of screw though for a secure hold. These automatically come with wood screws.

    Answered by Blindster ·

  • I'd like to use my shades in two positions, I bought all of them with the bungee cord. Can I buy more of of the clips that screw on to the post?
