outside mount example

Outside mounted blinds and shades are mounted outside the window, on your wall or molding. This option can make a window appear larger. It is also a solution if the window does not meet the depth requirement for an inside mount

Select your controls:
*some options may not be available on every shade

Select roller type:


On a standard roller shade, the fabric rolls off the back of the roller, closest to the window. Selecting this option will allow you to further customized your shade with valance options.


On a reverse roll, the fabric rolls off the front of the roller, away from the window.


Select a Valance:

Roller Shade No Valance

This product is manufactured without a valance. For a clean and finished look, we offer you the choice to upgrade your shade with an optional valance.


Graber Roller Shade Cassette Valance

Cassette valances are more distinctly curved, with the main difference being that they conceal the fabric roll at the top of the shade. This makes it look almost as if your shade is rolling directly up into the valance.


Graber Flat Fabric Valance

Flat valances are typically 5" in height and wrapped in the same fabric as your shade. Since they’re flat, they don’t jut out as much as their contour or cassette counterparts. In fact, they often sit flush with your window frame for a finished, streamlined look.


Graber Contoured Fabric Valance

A slightly rounded, contemporary, fabric-wrapped valance that is available on most shade styles. Designed to hide hardware, contour valances may be set with the same or complementary fabric as the shade for a nice finishing touch. Contour valances are usually mounted separately from the shade.


3in Fascia

Select from available colors:

3in Fascia White 871
3in Fascia Vanilla 970
3in Fascia Clear Anodized 875

Measuring: Inside Mount

  • Always measure each window you plan to cover. Windows of different sizes can appear deceptively similar.
  • Measure in 3 locations for width and height. Use the smallest measurement (if they are not all the same) rounding down to the nearest 1/8 in.
  • Do not make any deductions, allowances or additions.
  • Check for squareness by measuring on diagonals.
  • Note: If diagonal measurement differs by more than 1/8 in., choose outside mount instead.
  1. STEP 1 – Find the width: Measure exact distance to the nearest 1/8" between the inside surfaces of window frame in three places (across the top, across the middle, and across the bottom – see image). Use the narrowest measurement when ordering the width. Do not make any additional width deductions – the factory will make the appropriate deductions to ensure proper fitting.
  2. STEP 2 – Find the height: Measure exact distance to the nearest 1/8" from inside surface at top of window to the window sill in three places (on the left, middle, and right – see image). Use the longest measurement when ordering the height. If you prefer blind not to touch sill, deduct 1/4". If there is no sill, measure to the point where blind is to reach.

Measuring: Outside Mount

  • Always measure each window you plan to cover. Windows of different sizes can appear deceptively similar.
  • Use a steel / metal tape measure for accuracy.
  • Record measurements to the nearest 1/8" of an inch. Make sure you clearly indicate width from the height. It's very easy to accidentally transpose measurements.
  • Measure the height to the outer edges of the molding in 3 places (your molding is part of the measurement). If you have a sill, measure from the top of the sill to the top of the molding. Measure the window height in 3 places. Record the longest measurement rounding up to the nearest 1/8 in.
  • Do not take any deductions, allowances or additions.
  1. STEP 1 – Find the width: Measure exact distance to the nearest 1/8" between the outermost points where the blind is to be placed. For optimum light control, this measurement should extend at least 3/4" beyond the window opening on each side (or 1 1/2" for the entire width)
  2. STEP 2 – Find the height: Measure exact distance to the nearest 1/8" from where top of blind will be located to the top of the window sill. If there is no sill, or if blind is to overlap the window frame, measure to the point where the blind is to reach.
