This shade is like two shades in one – because it is! Pull the handle in the middle of the shade all the way down and you have a light filtering shade. Need to block external light while you are trying to sleep? Pull the same handle all the way to the top and you have a blackout shade. Or raise the entire shade for an open view – it's up to you!
Hi Don, thank you for your question! A Deluxe Blackout Single Cellular Shade may work for your space, but this will also darken the room. A similar option would be the Deluxe Light Filtering Single Cellular Shade as this will soften harsh sunlight and reduce glare while maintaining daytime privacy.
Hi Sandy, thank you for your question! With the Deluxe Blackout Single Cellular Shades, you do have the option to place the continuous cord loop on either the left or right hand side. If you have any further questions, please feel free to give us a call, start a live chat or send us an email!
Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window! Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth:
How to Measure:
Let's start with the Width:
Now, let's do the Height:
Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 3/8" to your shade's width to allow room for installation and for proper movement of the shade within the window opening. No deductions will be made to your height.
Outside Mount
4 minutes to measure
Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your shade. You will need at least 1" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets. The shade can be installed directly above the window opening, or higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the shade is raised.
If you have trim around the window, you can mount the shade above the trim, directly on the trim (if you have the required minimum flat space for the brackets), or to the sides of the trim if you do not have enough mounting space above the window or on the trim itself. See the directions below for how you'd like to install your shade.
If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product.

*Quantity will vary depending on width. Regarding mounting brackets- if your shade is 19"-36" wide you will have two mounting brackets. If your shade is 36 1/8"-48" wide you will have three mounting brackets. If your shade is 48 1/8"-72" wide you will have four mounting brackets.

Can't decide if you want soft natural light in your room during the day or if you want to block the light completely? Now you don't have to decide – with our unique Day Night Cellular Shades you can have both any time you want. The upper part of the shade has light filtering fabric and the bottom part has blackout fabric that can both cover the entire window opening when desired. Or have each section partially cover the window for the ultimate in daytime light control. Of course you can always open the entire shade all the way to let the light stream in!
