I was able to hang the shades all by myself and they work perfectly. The bedroom is MUCH cooler. Thank you for making a great product." - Karen P., Granite Bay, CA "These blinds are worth every penny! True blackout, easy to install, and very high quality. I'm glad that we went for the fabric wrap along the bottom. Super easy to use, opted for the pull stop instead of the standard chain and am happy that we did so as well. A well made product that arrived on time and exceeds my expectations daily!" - Vinay, New York See More Reviews

Shades over 98" wide will have a horizontal seam when choosing colors from the Essential Collection. Seam is placed as high as possible on shade so, in most cases, it remains hidden. Continuous Cord Loop is a color-coordinated cord with plastic beads. Continuous Cord Loop will have a defaulted lift cord location to the left side. 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. SelectConnect Bridge is only available with Wireless Pull Wand Motorization.
