I have a large front window that is 111 1/2 inches wide which is made up of 3 windows. It is too big for one shade so I will need to do three. How much space would between each shade? Right now the ones I have are almost 3 inches apart.
Asked by Andrew D ·
Hello Andrew, thank you for your inquiry. You may either order these to where they butt up against each other or so that they have a small gap in between. The inside mount deduction on this product is 1/4" off of the cassette valance and 1 1/8" off of the fabric. If you order all 3 shades so that the overall width equals to the 111 1/2" that means that the cassettes will butt up beside each other and there will be approximately a 1 1/8" space between the fabrics of the shades. If you would like more space between the shades than that then you can always adjust accordingly. We'd be happy to go over more options with you at 888-256-8672, option "1" for sales.

DO THESE MINIMIZE HEAT AS WELL AS LIGHT?
Asked by Shelly J ·
Hi Shelly, thank you for your question. These room darkening zebra sheer shades may provide a little heat reduction, but they have not been rated on insulation. Our cellular shades would be our #1 recommendation if you are looking for something to provide insulation for your window.

I have a blindster shade in my bedroom that blocks all light, so it allows me to sleep at night since the room is dark. I'm not sure which one I have, but I have something that has a thumb holding bracket in the center to pull it down or up (no strings). So it has 2 layers. I think the first layer blocks light and the second layer allows light. Can you tell me which of your products has this?

Are these easy to install on glass doors? I have 3 regular doors and a set of french doors I want to put this shade on.
Asked by Erik ·
Hi Ginger! As long as you have the minimum flat space required of 2" to install this shade above your glass, to allow you to screw in the bracket, you should not have any issues with the install.

no photos of bedroom. Does anybody buy for bedroom, considering they are "room darkening?"
Asked by Gail ·
Hi Gail! Thank you for your interest in Blindster. Great question! You can definitely use these room darkening shades for the bedroom but I would advise that these are not completely blackout. The Room Darkening are going to block approximately 95% - 99% of the light coming through the fabric, when in the closed position, depending on the color you select. I would recommend taking advantage of our free samples that we offer and ordering some different colors in this category. If you need more details, please call one of our sales agents at 888-256-8672, option 1 for sales.

Are these similar to the high end brands, where from the outside of the home you cannot see in other than shadows when the sheer blind is open?

I've read the answers but am not sure about one thing. When the zebra shade is fully closed, can you see in or out between the meeting of the stripes? I will need total privacy due to my location. No peeking through, not even a smidgen!
Asked by Jean ·
With the room darkening, when the shades are fully closed they cannot be seen through.

How do you change the shades from striped to solid if it is cordless?
Asked by Amy I ·
Hello Amy, You move the shade with the bottom rail up and down to line up the solids with solids to let more light through and the mesh with solid to block the light.
Answered by Blindster ·
can the it be partially open/closed and split band for light, or closed band only when in partial? I hope you understand what i am trying to explain.
Asked by Maurice c ·
Hello Maurice, You can have the shades full open were you can see to the outside, partially open where you can see a sliver of the out side or fully closed.
