Can we get a sample of the blackout liner fabric. We have decided on the Group A Wilmington White fabric - but we are a little hesitant about the blackout fabric liner because it mentions that it has foam. We would like to see what that looks like and see if it smells before we buy it. I don't see the blackout liner fabric as an option on the free samples page.

Can I get these with blackout shades for the bedroom?
Asked by Suzanne M ·
Hi Suzanne, There is an option to add blackout liners when you are customizing the shades prior to adding them to your cart.

I need the blackout option. Do they REALLY block out ALL the light? This is extremely important for me to know the truth!
Asked by Cindy F ·
Hi CJ, We appreciate you reaching out. When adding the blackout liner, the fabric itself will be blackout but you will still have light leaking around the edges. Normally most customers will do an outside mount to try to overlap the edges to help provide more light blockage if possible but not guaranteed. If you need any further assistance please give us a call at 888-256-8672 and one of our representatives would be more than happy to assist you.

What are the dimensions of the bracket for an outside installation of Roman shades? ie, how far does it stick out?
Asked by Leslie S ·
Hello Leslie, This is really going to depend on how you choose to operate it. Below are the different lift types and how far they will stick out. 1 1/2" for standard lift; 2 1/4" for top down bottom up corded; 2 1/4" for Continuous Loop up to 58" wide x 58" height; 3 1/4" for Continuous Loop over 58" wide x 58" height (both must be over 58"); 2" for Cordless

I want to mount these shades on a double entry door using the outside mounting option. How much should I add to the overall length in inches to account for the mounting above the actual window?
Asked by Stacy ·
Hello Stacy, thank you for your question! You will need to add AT LEAST 1 1/2" to your height in order to accommodate the bracket on an outside mount.

We are looking to put a Roman Shade on a door. Is there a way to hold the shade down as the door opens/closes?
Asked by Julia ·
Hello Julie, thank you for your question! Unfortunately, on the Roman Shades, there is not a hold down option on these shades.

I am looking at some color choices in Group C and D and am wondering what type of material they are? I am partial to something a little more casual and don't want something shiny/silky. Can you tell what the material is like for Donetta Cascade in Group C and for Dandelion Blue in Group D? Thank you!
Asked by Mary ·
Hi Mary, thank you for your question! Donetta Cascade and Dandelion Blue are both made of 100% Cotton and are described as a Woven Texture print.

I can't find pictures showing the difference between soft fold and plain fold. Could you help with that? Also, I really wanted inside installation style but I only have 1" of flat surface on the top window frame to use. Is that enough?
Asked by Cathy ·
Hi Cathy, thank you for reaching out! I'll send you a separate email with a couple of photos to help show the difference between the plain vs. soft folds. The minimum depth required for an inside mount 1 1/4" for a standard lift. If 1 1/4" isn't available, it will need to be measured for an outside mount, unfortunately, 1" is not enough depth to get a secure mount.
