Product Information

Our motorized zebra dual shades feature a unique fabric design that immediately catches the eye, plus the convenience and smooth operation of motorization. Raise and lower your shades by remote control with the rechargeable motor inside the shade. You can operate up to six shades separately with each remote control, or group shades together to raise or lower them all with one push of a button!  The shade itself features two layers of distinctive alternating sheer and light filtering fabric stripes – when you line up the sheer stripes with each other, filtered natural light comes into the room, partly through the sheer bands and partly blocked by the fabric bands. When the stripes are staggered, you get privacy and greater light control.  As the shade is raised, the bands alternate for a wide range of light blocking or view-through. It's a captivating combination that will bring your décor to a whole new level!

  • Motorized shades have color coordinated bottom rails and cassette with matching fabric insert

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. To mount the brackets, the depth at the top of the window must be at least 2 5/8" for motorized shades. To have a flush mount (meaning the shade is fully recessed in the window opening) the depth must be at least 3". 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 at the top of the opening to the nearest 1/8". 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 shortest. That is your ordering height.

Note: Always provide us with the actual measurement of the window opening. We will make the necessary deduction of approximately 1/8" to the width of the top of the shade to accommodate the installation brackets. 

The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 7/8" – 1 3/8" narrower than the ordered width (up to 11/16" gap on each side between the window opening and the edge of the fabric). When maximum light blocking is needed, consider an outside mount or an alternate product. 

No deductions will be made to the ordered 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 2" of flat vertical space above the window to mount the brackets. Follow the directions below for where 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.

Your ordered width will be the width of the cassette at the top of the shade. The fabric portion of the shade will be approximately 7/8" – 1 3/8" narrower than the ordered width (up to 11/16" on each side). If you wish to have the fabric cover a specific width, we recommend ordering slightly wider – just ensure that you have enough horizontal space to mount the shade.

Width:

  • Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" 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.

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. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window. 
  • 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.

Width:

  • Looking at your window and surrounding wall, decide what area you would like to cover. We recommend the shade extends about 2-3" on either side of the window opening for the best light control and appearance.
  • 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.

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. Since the shade spools onto the roll, it does not need to be installed high above the window to have the shade fabric fully clear the window.
  • 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.

Note: The shade fabric may rub against the trim when operating. If your trim is more than 1/2" thick, consider adding shims (not included) under the brackets for additional clearance.

Width:

  • We don't normally recommend mounting zebra dual shades directly on the trim unless your window configuration doesn't allow for other placements. Your ordered width will be the width of the cassette at the top of the shade. However, the fabric portion of roller shades is always narrower than the ordered width, and will not extend to the edges of the trim. Conversely, having the width of the fabric equal the width of your window trim will mean the top of the shade will extend beyond the width of the window trim.
  • 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 the fabric portion of the shade will be narrower than your ordered width.

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.

This shade is not suitable for installing on a door. The motion could cause the fabric to shift and telescope off the tube which will result in the material fraying on the edges.

Read More About This Product

Soft Privacy with Adjustable Light Control

These zebra shades use solid fabric bands paired with alternating sheer layers to give windows flexible light control. You can reduce glare without blocking daylight, letting soft light filter through while still offering privacy. This makes these zebra blinds a great window treatment for living areas, bedrooms, dining spaces, and media rooms where natural light should be softened, not fully blocked.

Motorized Convenience: No Cords or Manual Adjustments

These motorized blinds raise via internal motor with a remote control, so there’s no tugging on cords or uneven lifting. A wireless remote control enables precise control, including a favorite stopping position so your shades align perfectly every time. The motorized design improves safety in a kids' room and eliminates clutter around the window frame, keeping a clean look on every mount type, including inside and outside mount installations.

Modern Fabric That Complements Any Room

Constructed with premium fabric, these zebra shades blend sheer softness with the structure of blinds, adding depth and texture to your window treatment. The layered design creates a floating effect that suits contemporary spaces as well as traditional rooms. Compared with standard window coverings, these sheer shades offer style and performance in one product for any mount type, bringing a designer feel without needing expensive drapery or custom buildouts.

Long-Lasting Performance with Simple Maintenance

Durable dual fabrics resist fading, bending, and sagging, even with daily use. These zebra blinds clean easily with light dusting or a low-suction vacuum with brush attachment and require no special care. With no cords to tangle and no slats to break, maintenance stays effortless throughout the life of your shade.

FAQ

What makes Motorized Deluxe Light Filtering Zebra Sheer Shades different?

These Motorized Deluxe Light Filtering Zebra Sheer Shades combine alternating bands of fabric with sheer panels to blend privacy and visibility control. Zebra blinds let you soften daylight without fully darkening the room, and the motorized lift keeps the shade perfectly aligned every time.

Do motorized blinds still allow soft light into the room?

Yes. Unlike blackout products, motorized blinds made with dual light-filtering fabric are designed to transform sun glare into soft light. They reduce harsh brightness while keeping the room naturally bright and comfortable to use during the day.

Can I adjust these sheer shades without a remote control?

These sheer shades do require a remote control for operation and setup. That means you can raise, lower, or align the shade bands using the handheld remote for maximum convenience when operating your shades. You can even control multiple shades at once.

Should I choose an outside mount for zebra blinds?

An outside mount is a great choice if you want more light coverage around the window frame. Mounting the shade above or beyond the opening helps reduce small light gaps and enhances privacy, especially for wide windows or rooms facing direct sunlight. By contrast, inside mount shades provide a tailored look by fitting snugly inside the window opening while still offering excellent light control.

Are zebra blinds a good window treatment for a dining room?

Yes. Zebra blinds are an excellent window treatment for such rooms because they allow you to fine-tune light for meals or gatherings. You can let in gentle daylight or close the bands for more privacy without switching to heavy curtains.

Can I choose room-darkening fabrics with zebra blinds?

Our Motorized Deluxe Room Darkening Zebra Dual Shades are a perfect upgrade for customers who prefer extra privacy or light reduction. While still not blackout products, these darker fabric versions help reduce glare and brightness in bedrooms, offices, and media rooms.

How do I know the correct size to order and get the blinds installed properly?

Before ordering, use our measurement guide to measure the width, height, and depth of your window. Proper measuring ensures the product is installed correctly, especially if you’re choosing inside or outside mounts. This step helps maintain the best fit and finish.

Can zebra blinds offer timing control or features beyond the standard product?

While our Deluxe Zebra Dual Shades don’t include a home automation feature, consider our Premium Light Filtering Zebra Dual Shades with available motorized lift and smart home hub option. These features are popular among customers who want their window coverings to be easily controlled by an app on your home or by voice control.

Do zebra blinds offer good quality for the price compared to similar products?

Yes. Many customers choose zebra blinds because they deliver strong functionality and modern style without a premium cost. You can select a quality fabric and your selected color, and each product is custom-made at our factory to fit your window precisely. Once measured correctly, the shade is easily controlled and performs like higher-priced window treatment options, making it a substantial value for the price.

  • Carthia

    Our Motorized Deluxe Light Filtering Zebra Dual Shades are perfect! Aside from the slight measuring mistake I made, they fit great in my room and my daughter's room. I ordered 60 inch from a previous blind, but the window actually measures at 61 1/2 inches. I had a professional to put them up and he made it work. We love our new blinds and the remote is icing on the cake! I will be order more blinds from Blindster.

  • Peggy

    I am so impressed with my new shade. I made sure to "charge it" and turn it on before installing. The remote worked perfectly right out of the box. The free samples really helped me to decide. I would enclose a picture, but don't see a way to attach one. Buying another one for my bathroom. I got the very black, as I wanted a really "striped" look which I got.

  • Joan
