Correct Mounting for Your Window Treatments
Sure, choosing the right treatment with the right accessories is very important to how satisfied you’ll be with your purchase overall, but there’s something else that’s just as important—where you choose to mount your new purchase. At Blinds & Designs serving Marin County, our professionals can help you not only find the right treatment but also determine the best fit. Check out our approach below!
Considerations for Mounting
When you purchase your new window fashions from Blinds & Designs, you get professional advice and guidance as well as experienced measurement and installation. When you get your new treatments, you’ll obviously choose your style, fabric, and color, but it doesn’t stop there—you’ll have a number of options for lift systems and accessories, as well as the option to mount the treatment on the inside or outside of the window frame. To determine which mounting option is right for you, consider the depth of the window opening and casing, whether your window lifts or has a crank, and whether you have molding around the windows. All of these pieces of information will help you narrow down the type of window treatment that will work for your window while still meeting your aesthetic needs and UV, light, and privacy goals.
Choosing Inside Mount
Mounting inside the frame is a popular option for many of our clients for a variety of reasons. Inside mounting can provide a cleaner overall look, can allow you to use your molding as a decorative element, can help keep your indoor temperatures stable because the treatment is right by the glass, and can be the best method to use if you intend to layer your look with side panels or draperies.
Choosing Outside Mount
Outside mount is the obvious choice if there are impediments to mounting within the frame or other reasons a treatment won’t fit well inside. Using outside mount means that the treatment will cover the entire window, which is great for light blocking, and it will give your room a uniform appearance. You might also choose outside mount if you don’t want the product right against the glass or if there’s something obstructing full movement, like a window crank or an alarm sensor. Finally, outside mount is frequently easier for specialty-shaped windows, as well as if you want to cover unsightly trim.
