Traditional, dependable window covering option raised to a new exciting level. Our window shades offer a wealth of possibilities. A variety of color, texture, hem styles, trim and pull options are available for you to customize your decor. Achieve that special, individualized look with our custom roller shades.
Roller Shade depth requirements are affected by several variables, such as: the size of the
roller tube (depends on the shade width), the thickness of the fabric, and the overall shade height. Please review the chart below to determine if you have enough window depth for inside mount.
Additional Information
Roller shade sizes are based on tip-to-tip measurements.
Roller shade fabric is 1” less than the tip-to-tip measurement on shades produced on 1 1/4” and 1 1/2” tubes.
Roller shade fabric is 1 1/8” to 1 1/4” less than tip-to-tip measurement on shades produced on 2” and 3” roller. (except Motorized - 1 7/8” difference)
When ordering an outside mount shade, determine the width you desire the fabric to be and add 1” for the tip-to-tip measurement.
Additional fabric is added to ordered height to allow for roller coverage and spring tension.
Sizes exceeding fabric width are made from railroaded cloth (using width for height) therefore any pattern will run sideways. Railroading fabric will accommodate a wider width shade but will in turn limit the height of the shade to the fabric width minus 12” unless the fabric is seamed.
Not all fabrics are available with a horizontal seam to accommodate larger size shades.
