How to Measure
How to Measure: Inside Mount
3 min read
Let's make sure an inside mount will work for your window! Using a metal tape measure, first check if you have sufficient depth:
- Measure inside the window opening from the back of the window to the front of the opening where the shade would mount. The depth at the top of the window must be at least 2" to mount the brackets.
- To have a flush mount (meaning the shade is fully recessed in the window opening) the depth must be at least 2 1/4" on motorized shades 58" x 58" and under, or 3 ½" for motorized shades larger than 58" x 58".
- If your depth is not sufficient for mounting the brackets, please see our outside mount instructions or consider a different product.
How to Measure:
Let's start with the Width:
- Measure inside of the window opening/frame from left to right to the nearest 1/8" at three places: at the top of the opening, the middle of the opening, and then the bottom of the opening. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the narrowest. If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering width.
Now, let's do the Height:
- Measure the inside of the window opening/frame from the top of the opening to the bottom of the opening/sill to the nearest 1/8" in three places: on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. That is your ordering height. Please note that when ordering multiple shades for the same room, shades with different heights may have a different number of pleats.
Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/4" to your shade's width to allow room for installation and for proper movement of the shade within the window opening. No deductions will be made to your height.
How to Measure: Outside Mount
3 min read
Before you start measuring, decide where above your window opening you want to mount your shade. You will need at least 1 1/2" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets. The shade can be installed directly above the window opening, or higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the shade is raised.
If you have trim around the window, you can mount the shade above the trim, directly on the trim (if you have the required minimum flat space for the brackets), or to the sides of the trim if you do not enough mounting space above the window or on the trim itself. See the directions below for how you'd like to install your shade.
If you do not have sufficient vertical space for mounting the brackets, please see our inside mount instructions or consider a different product.
Width:
- Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2" on each side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance.
- Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including your desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width. Note that outside mount shades include a valance which will extend 1/2" beyond your ordered width on each side of shade.
Height:
- Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. The shade can be positioned higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the shade is raised.
- Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. Please note that when ordering multiple shades for the same room, shades with different heights may have a different number of pleats.
Width:
- Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2" on either side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance. You can also choose to have the shade the same width as your window trim.
- Using a metal tape measure, measure from left to right including any desired extra space on each side of the window—that is your ordering width. Note that outside mount shades include a valance which will extend 1/2" beyond your ordered width on each side of shade.
Height:
- Consider how far above the window you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. The shade can be positioned higher up to give the appearance of a larger window and to have more clear space in the window when the shade is raised.
- Measure from the top of where you will mount the shade on the wall down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below your window opening as you used above, or to the bottom edge of the trim if you prefer; if you have a protruding windowsill, measure down to the top of the sill. That is your ordering height. Please note that when ordering multiple shades for the same room, shades with different heights may have a different number of pleats.
Width:
- Confirm that the height of your trim is at least the minimum height required for installing the mounting brackets. At the top of your window, use a steel measuring tape and measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim. That is your ordering width. Note that outside mount shades include a valance which will extend 1/2" beyond your ordered width on each side of shade.
Height:
- Measure from the top of your trim to the bottom of your trim or to the top of the windowsill if you have a protruding sill. That is your ordering height. Please note that when ordering multiple shades for the same room, shades with different heights may have a different number of pleats.
Width:
- Using a metal tape measure, measure left to right from the outside edge of the trim piece that goes around the glass to the other outside edge. That is your ordering width. However, if you have space, it is best to order the shade about 2" wider for better light control. Note that outside mount shades include a valance which will extend 1/2" beyond your ordered width on each side of shade.
Height:
- Consider how far above the window trim piece you would like to install your shade but at least starting with the minimum vertical space referenced above. Measure down to where you want the bottom of the shade to be, using the same extra space below the window trim piece as you used above. That is your ordering height. Please note that when ordering multiple shades for the same room, shades with different heights may have a different number of pleats.

Motorized Premium Flat Fold Roman Shades for Modern Homes
Motorized Premium Flat-Fold Roman Shades bring modern convenience to your windows with a tailored flat-fold front, clean lines, and a refined finish that works in various rooms. This shade style offers a polished blend of sophistication and classic elegance, making it a strong fit for both modern and traditional interiors, including traditional interiors that still want updated performance. With fabric options that highlight texture and pattern, you can create a look that feels custom without feeling fussy.
Roman Shades Designed for Seamless Style and Everyday Function
These roman shades are made in a designer workroom look that keeps the focus on the fabric, not distracting construction details. The flat fold silhouette delivers a smooth front that helps patterns read clearly, while soft folds stack neatly when the shade is lifted. The result is a fold roman design that supports everyday function while maintaining a consistent, high-end appearance that can elevate the room.
Motorized Roman Shades With Smooth, Cordless Design
Motorized roman shades give you seamless control without unsightly cords, thanks to a modern cordless motorized design that supports safer daily use. With motorized roman operation, you can adjust one shade or set up multiple shades to move together for consistent placement across a space. When you want the shade fully raised or closed, motorization makes that change fast and reliable, and it is especially helpful when your window frame is difficult to reach.
Light Control Options From Light Filtering to Enhanced Privacy
Motorized Premium Flat Fold Roman Shades allow you to adjust light control to suit how you want the room to feel throughout the day. Light filtering options help soften sunlight while still bringing in natural light, creating a calm, neutral tone that works well in bedrooms, living areas, and offices. If you need more privacy and stronger room darkening, you can choose the blackout liner upgrade that reduces glare and makes the space more comfortable for resting, media, or early mornings.
Energy Efficient Roman Shades That Help Regulate Indoor Comfort
Motorized Premium Flat Fold Roman Shades can support an efficient setup by helping manage heat and drafts across seasons. In hot climates, the right fabric and liner choices can help reduce solar heat gain at the glass, which can keep interiors cooler and reduce energy consumption over time. In cold climates, adding insulation can help reduce drafts near windows, supporting steadier comfort and lower energy consumption.
How to Measure Width Correctly for a Custom Fit
To get the perfect fit, start by learning how to measure the width accurately for your mount type. Measure in three spots inside the window frame and use the smallest measurement for inside mounts to reduce the risk of rubbing against the window casing. Outside mounts typically give you more coverage and flexibility, but you still want clean alignment and proper bracket placement so the shade installs straight and operates smoothly.
Coordinating Multiple Shades for a Unified Look
Suppose you are ordering multiple Motorized Premium Flat Fold Roman Shades. Plan the installation so the finished look is consistent across the room. Matching fabrics, colors, and lift choices helps everything blend seamlessly, especially when windows are side by side. Keep in mind that different heights can change how the soft pleats appear from shade to shade, and soft pleats add a distinct rhythm to the design when several windows are treated together.
Why Motorized Roman Shades Are Ideal for Hard-to-Reach Windows
Motorized Premium Flat Fold Roman Shades are often the best option for tall window frames, stairway windows, or areas behind furniture where you want unmatched ease. With unparalleled control, you can fine-tune positioning without tugging or adjusting by hand. For a clean finish, pair linen or cotton fabrics in tones like ivory, beige, or silver to keep the space feeling airy, polished, and suitable for everyday living.
What is the difference between a flat fold and a soft fold roman shade?
A shade like Motorized Premium Soft-Fold Roman Shades features a gently contoured front that creates rounded folds when lowered, while Premium Flat-Fold Roman Shades maintain a clean, uninterrupted face for a more tailored look. Both styles support great functionality, but flat fold is often preferred when you want patterns to read clearly and the material to hang straight. If you are comparing roman shades to roman blinds, think of roman shades as the softer, more drapery-inspired option.
Do motorized roman shades work well for everyday use?
Yes. Motorized roman shades are built for daily reliability and smooth operation, giving you motorized roman control without tugging cords. With motorized Roman shades, you can position the window covering precisely, including when fully raised, while keeping the look clean. This kind of control is especially useful when you want consistent placement on multiple windows without fuss.
Can I choose light filtering or room darkening for better light control?
You can. The standard light filtering liner provides privacy and helps soften light while still allowing natural light into the room, which is great when you want a calm, neutral tone. If you need stronger privacy or a darker space, the room darkening blackout liner option improves controlling light and can be a better fit for bedrooms or media rooms. Your choice affects how the window looks during the day and how it feels at night.
Are Motorized Premium Flat-Fold Roman Shades energy-efficient in cold and hot climates?
They can be. The right liner and setup can help reduce cold drafts in colder climates, while in climates that are hot, they can help keep interiors cooler. When paired with the right upgrades, roman shades can also reduce consumption of the energy by limiting temperature swings near the window. Measurements and installation details matter here because coverage and fit affect performance.
Should I choose Roman shades or custom curtains for my space?
It depends on what you want the room to do and how you want it to feel. Roman shades offer a tailored look with a clean profile, while custom curtains can add more volume and a layered effect. If blending aesthetics is your goal, pairing roman shades with curtains is a common approach that balances softness and structure. Material choices matter too, so options like linen or cotton can shift the texture and level of sophistication, and colors like silver can create a more modern finish.
