MOUNTING CONSIDERATIONS:
Why Choose an Inside Mount?
Clean look: Allows for showcasing attractive window or door molding.
THINGS TO CONSIDER:
Deductions and Light Gaps: A small deduction in width and/or length is taken to ensure proper operating clearance. This gap may affect the treatment’s ability to darken a room.
Obstructed Views: When fully opened, the stack ( a compressed portion of the window treatment) will obstruct part of the view from your window. Stack heights will vary by product.
Architectural Obstacles: Obstacles such as handles and cranks can interfere with the operation of the inside-mount treatments.
Depth Considerations: Be sure your window meets the minimum-depth requirements for installation. Varies by product.
Why Choose an Outside Mount?
Improve Privacy and Light Control: Light gaps on the side of window treatments can be substantially diminished or eliminated.
Fewer Installation Limitations: Ideal for covering non-square windows or if you want an unobstructed view when fully opened.
Fewer Architectural Obstacles: Clears obstacles like handles and cranks.
THINGS TO CONSIDER:
Mounting Surface: Requires at least 2" of flat surface above window or door frame for mounting brackets. Projection brackets can be ordered, if needed, to clear frame molding.
Deductions: The manufacturer does not take deductions outside mount installations, so measure accurately. For all measurements, use a steel tape measure only.Measure to the nearest 1/8".
