What to Expect from Semi-Blackout Fabric
This fabric reduces incoming light but does not provide complete blackout. The result varies with fabric color, sunlight, window dimensions, and installation. Light may also enter around the edges of the shade.
For a bedroom, consider how much darkness you need before choosing semi-blackout. If complete darkness is your priority, contact us to discuss a more suitable option.
Check the Fabric Before Ordering
Fabric color and texture can look different across screens and room lighting. Request a fabric sample to assess the material in your own space before placing a custom order.
Tailored Look · Clean Lines
Roman shades create structured folds that bring a polished, custom-fitted appearance to the window without adding visual bulk.
Flexible Light Control · Added Privacy
Depending on the selected fabric and lining, Roman shades can provide different levels of light filtering and privacy to suit bedrooms, living rooms, dining areas, and home offices.
Stack height varies by shade size, fabric, fold style, and mounting method. It is typically about 9–14 inches; taller shades may require a larger stack.
How Do I Measure for an Outside-Mount Roman Shade?
For window frames with a depth of less than 2":
- Measure the full window width, including the moulding, then add ½ inch.
- Measure the full window height, including the moulding, then add 3 inches.
Do I Need to Subtract ⅜ Inch for an Inside Mount?
Yes. For a window casing width of 40", order a shade width of 39⅝" by subtracting ⅜" from the measured width.
How should I adjust the width for an inside mount?
For a manually measured inside mount, subtract 3/8 inch from the smallest opening width before entering your order width. Do not subtract from the height.
What Minimum Window Depth Is Required for an Inside Mount?
For window depths at least 2.5"
