Enter the exact size of the blind you want to order. The factory will make no deductions. ### Lift Type The lift type determines how you raise or lower this product. - Continuous Cord Loop: Continuous Cord Loop provides a clean look and features a cord that loops around a tensioning mechanism attached to the wall or window frame.

The innovative design features a unique two-banded fabric that features alternating sheer and light filtering privacy material. The material comes down the front of the shade, loops around the bottom rail and then a second layer goes back up to the stop of the shade. This creates an endless array of light control and privacy options – if you position the sheer bands on the front and the back to be even with each other, you get a partial view to the outside while bathing the room in soft light. If you stagger the sheer bands with the light filtering bands, you get privacy and more subdued light through the shade. As you raise the shade, you can position the bands however you choose or lower the shade fully for complete privacy. Easily control the shade with your choice of continuous cord loop, cordless lift or motorized operation. Elevate your decor with LEVOLOR banded shades! Get to know this shade: - Two layers of material with alternating sheer and light filtering privacy bands - Raising and lowering the shade moves the bands on each layer to either align or alternate - Includes cassette valance with fabric insert for a complete designer look - Continuous Cord Loop is standard lift option, or upgrade to either cordless lift or motorized operation Why you'll love this shade: - Unique shade design provides visual interest and dynamic light and privacy control - Beautiful fabric and color choices elevate your home aesthetic and decor - Available easy-to-use PerfectPlacement™ cordless system – the shade smoothly adjusts with a simple push or pull on the bottom rail - Upgrade to motorized lift for effortless control of multiple shades at once with remote control or add the hub to connect to home automation systems - Complies with all current child safety requirements Key considerations: - Because this is a roller-style shade, the fabric will be up to 1 7/16" narrower than the ordered width to accommodate the brackets and connecting rods inside the shade - Cords, end caps and other hardware is coordinated to fabric color, preselected in either white, vanilla, gray, bronze or black ## How to measure ### How to Measure: Inside Mount Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window! Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth: - Measure inside the window opening from the back of the window to the front of the opening where the shade would mount. To mount the brackets, the depth at the top of the window must be at least 1 1/2". To have a flush mount (meaning the shade is fully recessed in the window opening) the depth must be at least 3 3/4". If your depth is not sufficient for mounting the brackets, please see our outside mount instructions or consider a different product. How to Measure: Let's start with the Width: - Measure inside of the window opening/frame from left to right at the top of the opening to the nearest 1/8". If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering width. Now, let's do the Height: - Measure the inside of the window opening/frame from the top of the opening to the bottom of the opening/sill to the nearest 1/8" in three places: on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. That is your ordering height. Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/4" to the width of the top of the shade to accommodate the installation brackets. The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 1" to 1 7/16" narrower than the ordered width (up to 3/4" gap on each side between the window opening and the edge of the fabric) depending on the lift option. When maximum light blocking is needed, consider an outside mount or an alternate product. No deductions will be made to the ordered height. ### How to Measure: Outside Mount Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your shade. You will need at least 3 1/8" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets. Follow the directions below for where you'd like to install your shade. If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product. Your ordered width will be the width of the cassette at the top of the shade. The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 1" to 1 7/16" narrower than the ordered width (up to 3/4" on each side) depending on the lift option. If you wish to have the fabric cover a specific width, we recommend ordering slightly wider – just ensure that you have enough horizontal space to mount the shade. #### Above the Window (No Trim) Width: - Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" on each side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance. - Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including your desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width. Height: - Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window. - Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. #### Above the Trim Width: - Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" on either side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance. - Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including any desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width. Height: - Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window. - Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above, or to the bottom edge of the trim if you prefer; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. Note: The shade fabric may rub against the trim when operating. If your trim is more than 1/2" thick, consider adding shims (not included) under the brackets for additional clearance. #### On The Trim Width: - We don't normally recommend mounting zebra dual shades directly on the trim unless your window configuration doesn't allow for other placements. Your ordered width will be the width of the cassette at the top of the shade. However, the fabric portion of roller shades is always narrower than the ordered width, and will not extend to the edges of the trim. Conversely, having the width of the fabric equal the width of your window trim will mean the top of the shade will extend beyond the width of the window trim. - Confirm that the height of your trim is at least the minimum height required for installing the mounting brackets. At the top of your window, use a steel measuring tape and measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim. That is your ordering width. - Note that the fabric portion of the shade will be narrower than your ordered width. Height: - Measure from the top of your trim to the bottom of your trim or to the top of the windowsill if you have a protruding sill. That is your ordering height. #### Door Mount This shade is not suitable for installing on a door. The motion could cause the fabric to shift and telescope off the tube which will result in the material fraying on the edges. ## How to install - How to Install (PDF): https://cdn.toolfreeblinds.com/site/uploads/products/sheer-shades/levolor-light-filtering-zebra-sheer-shades/documents/Prod%20120_Prod%20121_LVC_Banded_NTL_Install-Guide_US.link.pdf ## Questions & Answers 7 questions from shoppers, answered by Blindster: https://frontend-v3-staging-non-prod.toolfreeblinds.com/shades/zebra-dual-shades/levolor-light-filtering-zebra-sheer-shades/questions ## Reviews 5 out of 5 from 3 reviews.
