Fit & Factory Deductions
Recommendations
- Deductions may vary +/- 1/8". Do not account for factory deductions when measuring for your shade. Deduction information detailed in the table below.
- Since this is a natural product, colors may vary slightly from dye lot to dye lot. (Seasons can change the color of the reeds, grasses, etc.) If ordering for an entire room, we recommend ordering all of your shades at the same time to ensure they all come from the same dye lot.
- Woven wood materials are not inherently private and may allow visibility through them depending on lighting conditions.
- If a liner option is available, adding a liner can improve privacy and help protect the natural material from fraying over time. Liner color may be visible from the street.
- Edge binding is highly recommended with a continuous cord loop and is offered exclusively in the Earthbound collection. Due to the nature of the materials, some fabric curvature may occur.
No Drill
- IMPORTANT MEASURING TIP: If any No-Drill Blinds option is chosen, take all three standard width measurements (top, middle, bottom) to check for variance, but be sure to input the exact measurement of the top of your window frame into the width field. Compare the three measurements, and if the variance between them exceeds 1/4", No-Drill Blinds may not fit properly.
- The Click2Fit No-Drill Blinds and Built In No-Drill Blinds options are only available for Inside Mount, and require 2 1/2" of depth to install. They are not recommended for use with PVC or metal window frames.
- Factory will deduct approximately 5/8" off the width of the Click2Fit No-Drill Blinds headrail, and 1/4" off the width of the Built In No-Drill Blinds headrail.
- The locking mechanism on all No-Drill Blinds headrails will be located on the opposite end of the control side selected for Continuous Cord Loop. The locking mechanism will be located on the right side for Cordless and Motorized options.
- Click2Fit No-Drill Blinds headrail is only available in the color white and will be visible after installation, with or without valance. The Built In No-Drill Blinds headrail is fabric wrapped to match the material of the shade, and is not visible after installation.
- All shades ordered with the Built In No-Drill Blinds headrail will have a small amount of excess fabric on the side of the shade to cover the locking mechanism and minimize light gaps.
- When any No-Drill Blinds headrail is ordered, factory will deduct 1/2” off of the width and height of your fabric.
Good to Know
- The safety device is required by law and must be applied on chain loops and prevents free-hanging loops in operating chains. Install the safety device at the maximum distance possible from the control mechanism to prevent slack in the loop.
- Returns are only included with outside mounted products ordered with the 6" valance upgrade. Returns are not available for inside mounted products.
- Woven Wood shades ordered without the 6" valance upgrade include a discreet mini-valance (~3.5" / 9 cm) attached to the back of the shade, designed to conceal the operating mechanism.
- Always lift and lower cordless products with both hands to avoid unleveling and the need for re-leveling.
- Liners & cord shroud at the back of the shade are generally a light cream color, which may contrast with darker fabric selections; please consider this when placing your order.
- Outside mount orders with a valance may arrive with an additional 1/2” to 1" (+/- 1/8") due to valance returns.
- All continuous cord loop chains are metal.
- Natural products ordered without edge binding or a liner can be more susceptible to fraying. For enhanced durability, consider adding one or both of these upgrades.
- With the edge binding upgrade, there will be a 1" border on each side of the shade.
- Liner upgrades will come with a pre-selected liner color to coordinate to the chosen fabric, the liner is visible from the street.
- When no liner is chosen, woven wood shades may allow visibility through depending on the lighting.
- Due to the natural characteristics of this product, the finished height may vary +/- 1/2" from ordered height.
- Material will always cover a portion of your window, even when fully raised. Please call in for considerations.
SelectConnect Bridge
- The SelectConnect Bridge is compatible with almost all Motorization systems we offer. (Not compatible with Panel Tracks, Wood Blinds, or the SelectBlinds Automation system)
- The SelectConnect Bridge is only compatible with remote-operated shades. (shades that use both Wand + Remote are compatible, Wand-only shades are not compatible)
- You must have Wi-Fi access in areas where products are installed for controller to work.
- Download of free Bond Home App on iOS (Apple) or Android devices required.
- Controller range is approximately 150' or 30 blinds/shades. One controller per floor is recommended for use in typical size homes. However, multiple units may be needed for full coverage depending on the location of window coverings and the layout and construction materials of your home.
- Please note this product is not covered under our FIT Guarantee.
- Please note this product is not eligible for returns or refunds unless deemed defective. Contact Customer Service for more details.
Remote Motorization
- Remote is already programmed to the motorized shade. All that is required is to connect the battery to the motor and your shade is ready to operate.
- Rechargeable remote-control Motorization lift system upgrade includes rechargeable motor battery and charger.
- Motorization limits are preset during production.
- Battery charge will last up to 6 months based on an average-sized shade raised and lowered twice a day. It takes approximately 4 hours to recharge the motor when fully depleted.
- Remote reaches from approximately 65-80 feet away from shade.
- At least one remote is needed per order. The 5-channel remote allows you to operate up to 5 shades on a single frequency and the 15-channel remote allows you to operate up to 15 shades on a single frequency. When adding a multi-channel/frequency remote, please select 'No Remote' for any additional motorized shades you want to add and power with.
- Motorized options are powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, which will be shipped at or below 30% charge for safety. Fully charge your shades before use for optimal performance.

Inside Mount Instructions
To ensure an inside mount will work for your window, start by checking that you have enough mounting depth. You can find the exact requirements under the “Specifications” tab on the product page of the item you are considering.
Measuring the width
- With the tape measure, find the exact width (left to right) of the inside edge of the window frame in three places (top, middle, and bottom). Choose the smallest of these measurements.
- If you get a 1/16” or 1/32” increment, round down to the nearest 1/8”. (For example, if the smallest measurement is 24 9/16", round down to 24 1/2". If it's 24 3/8", no need to round down.)
- This will be the width you order.
Measuring the height
- With the steel tape measure, find the height (top to bottom) of the window frame in three places (top left, center, and top right down to the window sill). Choose the largest of these measurements.
- If you get a 1/16” or 1/32” increment, round up to the nearest 1/8”. (For Example, If the largest measurement is 24 9/16", round up to 24 5/8". If it's 24 1/2", no need to round up.)
- This will be the height you order.
Outside Mount Instructions
An outside mount is a great choice for better light coverage, since it fully covers the window and frame. To get the right fit, you’ll need to account for a few extra measurements when placing your order. We’ll custom make your shade to the exact dimensions you provide—no automatic additions are made.
Flat Surface Requirements
Start by choosing where you’d like to mount your shade. You’ll need at least 1-2½” of flat mounting space. For more details, check the product page and review the “Specifications” tab.
Measuring the width
- Measure the window’s width in three spots (top, middle, and bottom).
- Find the largest measurement and add at least 2” to each side, giving you more light coverage and added privacy.
- That number is the width.
Measuring the height
- Measure the window’s exact height in three spots (top left, center, and top right down to the bottom sill).
- With the largest number, add 2 inches to the top and bottom, for a total of 4 inches. Add more if you want even more coverage.
- That number is the height.
Measuring Tips
- Use a steel measuring tape
- If you get a 1/16" or 1/32" increment for width, round down to the nearest 1/8"
- If you get a 1/16" or 1/32" increment for height, round up to the nearest 1/8"
- SelectBlinds applies all necessary deductions; do not adjust width.
