Comparing Inside Mount vs. Outside Mount for Roman Shades
Many people have yet to discover the joys of choosing the perfect mount type for their Roman shades. Two distinct styles, inside mount and outside mount, are available to enhance their home’s aesthetic. That’s where our team at Hubbard’s Custom Blinds & Framing Gallery comes in, sharing the differences and advantages of each.
What to Know About Inside Mount for Roman Shades
An inside mount attaches the shades’ hardware within the window frame, keeping the shade flush with the wall. It’s perfect for those who want a sleek, minimalist appearance or have limited space. An inside mount will preserve the intriguing aesthetic if you have uniquely shaped windows, like a half-moon or bay window.
Here are a few advantages of an inside mount for Roman shades:
- Allows you to add decorative top treatments or layer a second window covering over the shade.
- Avoids covering intricate woodwork or other interesting trim features.
- Provides an accessible frame and sill to make cleaning easy.
Inside mount Roman shades offer unique benefits, but it's important to consider their specific requirements. Your window must have at least a 2.5" depth to properly accommodate an inside mount, ensuring a sleek and flush appearance. While these shades allow minimal light gaps on the sides, you can easily manage this with the proper setup, maintaining your bedroom's ambiance. The installation, although slightly more intricate, leads to a clean and integrated look that enhances the overall appeal of your space.
When to Choose Outside Mount for Roman Shades
Window treatments with hardware extending beyond the frame's edges have an outside mount. You can use an outside mount on any window frame without worrying about the depth and enjoy increased light control and privacy. An outside mount is also an excellent pick if you prefer a more dramatic appearance or want to conceal an unattractive window frame or sill in your space.
Choosing an outside mount can enhance your windows' frame, offering a unique aesthetic. While it may require more hardware or larger brackets, this approach allows you flexibility, especially with limited available depth for installation.
Hunter Douglas Roman Shade Options
After you’ve decided which mount is right for you, select your favorite Roman shade. Roman shades are a classic window treatment for your home, comprised of fabric that you can raise and lower. Hunter Douglas offers several styles of Roman shades in hundreds of fabric and color combinations, including:
- Vignette® Roman Shades for a crisp, contemporary look.
- Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades for a refined aesthetic.
- Provenance® Woven Wood Shades for adding an organic touch and textural appeal.
