About Placement of Skylight blinds:

Skylight blinds need to be mounted inside the window frame.  Usually, mounting blinds flush with the wall (or ceiling) as shown in the photo above provides easier operation and a more solid (wood)  installation framing surface. However, the greatest energy efficiency is obtained when the shade is and inch or two from the window. It must be mounted on wood, not drywall alone. Consider also leaving room for protruding cranks. You may also order T-handles if your crank is in the way.

Windows too high to reach?

Most skylight blinds are easily operated with our extension poles. The poles come in two sizes, 6 ft. and 12 ft.  The 12 ft. pole extends to 18 ft. The specially designed pole end fits into the handle of the balcony shade for easy operation. To order...

About Angles:

Skylight blinds are available in the greatest size range when the application is between 15 and 75 degrees. For extremely small angles (as in a flat ceiling) or vertical applications (a regular window in a straight wall) the maximum widths and lengths are less.  See Chart
