WINDOWFIT

Width: Measure the width you wish to cover: all styles come with fullness built in, so order exact width needed. If space allows, we recommend adding 6" to 12" on each side, beyond window edges: this makes windows look larger and allows fabric to stack clear of windows when drapes are fully open. Wave Fold Drapery is available in set widths only. You will want to choose the size that is closest to the area you wish to cover, if necessary choose a size that is wider than your area to avoid any light gaps.

Height: Finished height is measured from top to bottom, including tabs or rod pockets. Drapery is most often ordered to be installed 4" above the window or near the ceiling (be sure to add these extra inches to your final measurements). All Drapery styles can be ordered as Valances up to 20" in length.

You may order your drapery as Single Panels or in a Pair.

A pair will have two equal panels (the width measurement provided split equally in half).

Single panel will be made as one panel and you choose open to left or right. A center panel is most commonly used on very large windows where you would like a stationary panel in the center. This allows the outside panels to be opened to let in light but keep your design element in the center.

Outside Mounted blinds or shades are mounted on your wall or molding (rather than within the confines of your window frame). Outside Mount is often used when windows are not "square"; to make a window appear larger; to hide a less-than-attractive window; or when there is not sufficient frame depth for Inside Mounting.

Inside Mounted blinds or shades are contained within your window frame. You may prefer an Inside Mount because it provides a finished, built-in look without covering your window molding. Inside Mount is also suggested if you plan to layer Drapery, a Valance or Cornice over your treatment.

2-on-1 Headrail Integrating two separate, independently operating shades on a single valance and headrail can make side-by-side windows look like a single unit, while providing more light control and flexibility in operating your shades, since each has its own lift cord. This upgrade is also recommended for large windows and/or heavier materials. When you order 2 on 1 headrail with fabric shades your overall width comes split equally in half.

Lift cords raise, lower and position your entire shade. Select either left- or right-side location for your cords, taking into consideration your room configuration, ease of reaching lift cords behind furniture, etc. A cord cleat will also be provided with your shade, and we strongly encourage its use to keep dangling lift cords out of the reach of small children or pets. When ordering Top Down Bottom Up there will be two cords on your shade. Both cords will come with cord lock to allow you shade to lock in place.

Lining choices protect your privacy and your investment. Guard against the fading and damage of sun exposure, while creating more privacy!

Privacy Lining blocks sun and adds insulation to panels and draperies.

Our 3-Ply Blackout Lining blocks light completely and is available in White or Ivory to suit your needs.

New Insulation Lining is white sateen on the outside to improve your street side appearance, while flannel on the inside adds more insulation than standard privacy lining. Two layers in one lining make shades and drapery easier to dress and add heft to lighter-weight fabrics. Available in White or Ivory.

Note: We recommend Lining for 100% linen materials in order to prolong the life of the fabric, protecting your treatment from sunlight. Lining also helps prevent UV ray damage of flooring and interior furnishings. Fabrics that are 100% silk require lining.
