If you don’t know how to installshades for window, please read the following guide. For more details, pleasecontact us
For successful installation, check for window hardware like cranks or handles that may obstruct shade operation, and note that roller shade fabric measures approximately 1 inch (2.7cm) narrower than the ordered valance width.
NOTE: Please measure the dimensions of the window; do not take any deductions for clearance; we will produce the blinds of the appropriate size for you.
Measure Width Top/Middle/Down:
Measure the width in 3 places. For width, use the smallest measurement.
Measure Height Left/Middle/Down:
Measure the height in 3 places. For height, use the longest measurement.
Order Width = Shortest Measurement Width = Whole Item Width
Order Height = Longest Measurement Height = Whole Item Height (Window depth ≥ 3″)
Measure Width To Be Coverd:
Measure width to be covered. We recommend adding 6 inches to the width you wish to cover for optimum light control and privacy.
Measure Height To Be Coverd :
We recommend adding 6 inches to the width you wish to cover for optimum light control and privacy.
Order Width = Measured Width + 6”=Whole Item Width
Order Height = Measured Height + 6” = Whole Item Height
Before commencing installation, carefully inspect the package to verify that all essential components (including screws and brackets) are included and correspond to your order specifications. This ensures an efficient and trouble-free assembly process.
Selecting the Optimal Mounting Location for Your blackout zebra shades
Inside Mount (Recommended for a Clean, Built-in Look)
Outside Mount (Ideal for Shallow or Non-Recessed Windows)
If you opt for an inside mount and your window frame width allows, top mounting is the optimal choice
– Align the wall and shade brackets, ensuring the side caps are centered 4 inches (10 cm) from each bracket for optimal stability.
– Use a pencil to mark drilling points on the wall through the bracket holes.
Step 2: Install the Brackets
1.Drill Pilot Holes
Using a power drill, create pilot holes at the marked screw locations.
2.Insert Expansion Sleeves
Gently tap the provided expansion sleeves into each drilled hole until flush with the wall.
3.Secure the Brackets
Align the brackets over the holes and insert the expansion bolts.
Tighten firmly with a screwdriver to ensure a rigid mount.
•Insert the front rebound part of the bracket into the shade valance
•Hook the rear end of the bracket into place
If an inside mount isn’t feasible due to insufficient window depth, a side mount using extension brackets is recommended.
– Position the extension brackets on the side walls adjacent to the window.
– Use a pencil to mark the screw holes, ensuring they are level and symmetrical on both sides.
– Attach the extension brackets to the side walls using the provided screws.
– Fix the installation brackets to the extension brackets, ensuring a rigid connection.
Pro Tips for Optimal Performance:
✔ Install brackets as close to the top of the window frame as possible to minimize light leakage.
✔ Use a level to guarantee both brackets are perfectly horizontal for smooth shade operation.
– Insert the front rebound part of the bracket into the shade valance
– Hook the rear end of the bracket into place
If you choose to install it outside and the space allows, top installation is the best choice. The operation steps are similar to top mount installation in inside installation.
Note: For inside installation, you need to determine the position of the brackets on the wall and the shade, while for outside installation, you need to determine the position of the two brackets above the window frame and the shade.
If you choose an outside mount but find that the space is insufficient for bracket installation, consider mounting it on the ceiling. The operation steps are similar to top mount installation in outside installation.
Motorized cellular shades are advanced window treatments that merge the insulating properties of cellular (honeycomb) shades with automated motorized operation. These shades feature a unique honeycomb-shaped fabric structure that traps air, providing superior thermal insulation.
Here’s how it works:
Air-Pocket Insulation
The fabric is pleated into hexagonal cells that create multiple layers of trapped air.
Air acts as a natural insulator, reducing heat transfer between windows and interior spaces.
Seasonal Temperature Regulation
Winter: Prevents cold drafts by blocking heat loss through windows.
Summer: Reflects solar heat, keeping interiors cooler.
Studies show cellular shades can improve window insulation by up to 40% compared to traditional blinds or curtains.
Yes, you can convert your existing cellular shades to motorized shades, but the feasibility and method will depend on the specific design and construction of the shade.
Motorized Kits: There are motorized kits available that can be used to retrofit existing cellular shades. These kits typically include a motor, a power source (battery or corded), and the necessary hardware to mount the motor to the shade. Be sure to select a kit that is compatible with your shade type and size.
Professional Installation: If you are unsure about retrofitting your shades yourself, you can hire a professional to install them. They can evaluate your existing shades and recommend the best motorized solution.
Limitations: Not all cellular shades are suitable for power adjustment. Factors such as fabric weight, lift type, and overall shade construction can affect whether it supports power adjustment. Always consult the manufacturer or a professional to determine if your specific shade supports power adjustment.
Motorized cellular shades combine smart automation, energy efficiency, and sleek design, making them ideal for specific spaces.
1. Bedrooms & Nurseries
Blackout options improve sleep by blocking 100% of light.
Silent operation.
Child-safe (cordless + voice/app control).
2. Home Theaters & Media Rooms
Room-darkening/blackout fabrics eliminate glare on screens.
Motorized control avoids interruptions during movies.
Insulation reduces outside noise (honeycomb structure dampens sound).
3. Living Rooms & Open Floor Plans
Light-filtering fabrics soften sunlight while maintaining views.
Voice/app control adjusts shades across large spaces effortlessly.
Energy efficiency keeps rooms comfortable year-round.
4. Skylights & High Windows
No cords/ladders needed—control via remote or voice.
Safety (no climbing to adjust hard-to-reach shades).
Insulation prevents heat loss/gain through glass ceilings.
5. Patio Doors & Large Windows
Motorized operation handles heavy/large shades easily.
Cordless design safer for kids/pets near high-traffic areas.
Insulation for sliding glass doors.
