How Do I Simplify Roman Blinds Installation?<\/h2>\n

Before we get into installation, let\u2019s start with how to measure. If your blinds aren\u2019t the right size \u2013 no matter the style \u2013 the installation will be downright impossible. To make sure you have the right measurements, check our measuring guide<\/a> beforehand. You\u2019ll have to decide if you want your roman shades to be inside mount (inside the window frame) or outside mount (outside the frame). Inside mount measurements need to be exact so be sure to watch the measuring video to find out how to measure correctly.<\/p>\n

We recommend an outside mount if you prefer to hide your window frame and if you would like to create a blackout effect. No light will enter this way. Otherwise, you can go for an inside mount and keep your window frame on display.<\/p>\n
