Inside Mount

Inside Mount Roller Shades
  1. Width Measurement: Measure the inside width of the window at three points: W1, W2, and W3. Use the smallest measurement as the final width for ordering.
    Product Width (W)= Order Width
  2. Height Measurement: Measure the inside height of the window at three points: H1, H2, and H3. Use the tallest measurement as the final height for ordering.
    Product Height (H) = Order Height
  3. Depth Measurement: Depth >= 2 3/8" (6cm)

Note:

  1. We will reduce the width by about 1/8" (3mm) during production to ensure easy installation.
  2. For the inside mount, the fabric will be about 1" narrower than the product width, which may cause light gaps on the sides. To prevent this, you can add blackout strips when ordering.
  3. When the window depth is less than 3 3/8", the top valance will extend beyond the window.
