Would this work on a door rather than a window?
Asked by Taylor ·
Hello Taylor, thank you for your question! We do have customers that mount these on doors and order them as an outside mount. They do not have bottom door brackets to secure them at the bottom, but they've been ordered for doors many times!

With outside mount is there some sort of valance? If so does the fabric wrap around the sides?
Asked by Kelsey ·
Hello Kelsey, thank you for your question about our Premium Plain Fold Roman Shades. If these shades are ordered with a continuous cord loop or motorized, your shades will come with a valance that wraps around the edges.

How insulating is this roman shade 10 being the best and 1 being the least.
Asked by Carol t ·
Hello Carol, thank you for your question regarding our Premium Plain Fold Roman Shades. Unfortunately we don't have a way of measuring the amount of insulation this type of shade will offer. But if you're looking for insulating options please consider cellular/honeycomb shades. If you have any further questions, please feel free to give us a call, start a live chat or send us an email!

Are these shades “blackout” shades capable of blocking out most light?
Asked by Holly ·
Hello, Holly - Yes! When customizing your Roman Shade, be sure to select "100% Blackout" as the Liner Type. This means we'll cover the back of the shade with a complete light blocking material, ensuring no light will shine through the shade itself. Something to keep in mind is with an inside mount there may be a small line of light that seeps through the edges of the shade if there is any gap between the shade and the window frame. You can avoid this by ordering an outside mount shade in a slightly larger width. If you have any other questions, please let us know!

Do the flat fold Roman shades block the sun and reduce heat coming through the window?
Asked by Susan ·
Hello Susan, thank you for reaching out regarding our Roman Shades. Since these shades come with a liner that would reduce the heat and sun but these shades don't have a high insulating value. If you have any other questions or concerns please don't hesitate to reach back out to us.

We have wrap around backsplash for our kitchen window. There is a 3/4" step each side about 12" up from the bottom. How would you handle this size wise?

Do you ever sell just your head rail and bottom lift bar separately for home sewers?
Asked by Lois K ·
Hello Lois, thank you for your question. I'm sorry, but we do not sell the components separately.

With the Top Down Bottom Up feature, do these blinds show any metal clips at the top when they are Top Down?
Asked by Miranda ·
Hello Miranda, thank you for your question! No, on a top down bottom up you will not be able to see the metal brackets. On an inside mount, this particular lift style will not have any installation brackets. They will come with just screws and those are drilled straight up into the headrail. On an outside mount they do come with little L-shaped brackets, but as an outside mount this lift type comes with a valance, so that will cover the top of the headrail. (Also, keep in mind if this is being installed as an outside mount with a top/down bottom/up lift, the valance will arrive 1" wider than the ordered width so that it can wrap around the headrail.) Please let us know if you have any further questions. We'd be happy to help!

If I decide to paint and have to take down the shades, how do I rehang them since they rely on an adhesive strip?
Asked by Debbie ·
Hello Debbie! While the no-tools brackets are designed to be a permanent installation method, we do offer instructions on how to safely remove them. Additional adhesive brackets would need to be purchased for a small fee.

Could I add a trim to the shade after I receive them?
Asked by Cathie E ·
Hello Cathie, thank you for your question! We do not recommend this, as it would void the shade's warranty.
