Professional installation of your window treatments ensures they’ll function exactly as you need them to. The key to flawless installation is measuring and planning before you buy your blinds or shades. For example, are you considering inside or outside mount? At Treasure Coast Window Fashions in West Palm Beach, we work with clients to determine the best installation specifications. A few things we consider include:
- What is the depth of your window opening or casing?
- Do your windows lift up or have a crank handle?
- What kind of molding do you have around your windows?
- How much room do you have around the molding?

With this info, our window treatment specialists will be able to narrow in on the type of new window treatments that will work best for you, including whether or not to mount them inside or outside your window frame.
Installing Blinds and Shades – Inside Mount
Inside mounting of window treatments is the most popular. Benefits of mounting window treatments inside your window include:
- Providing a cleaner look in the window
- Exposing your molding as an added decorating element
- Complementing, rather than interfering with, draperies
- Reducing energy costs by having the blind or shade lay closer to the glass
Installing Blinds and Shades – Outside Mount
Outside mounting of your window treatments works well in specific applications. An outside mount covers the entire window and can provide a uniform look. Consider this outside mount when:
- The depth of your window is insufficient for the blind or shade to be mounted inside
- You want the blind or shade to be totally off the window when raised
- There is an obstruction inside the window frame
- You have a unique or irregular window shape
- You don’t want your window trim to show
- Inside mounting would interfere with a window crank handle or alarm sensor
- You want total privacy with no light gap
