Shades for Doors - How Does That Work?
Can you put a shade on a door? The simple answer is yes, you can!
At Loom Decor, we are here to help you with the ordering process - step by step.
A Door Shade will be an "Outside Mount" shade.
First, we will measure the "width" of the shade. To do this, measure the width of the glass and add 1/2" - 1" on the left and right sides for the shade to overlap.
Next, measure the length of the glass and add 2" - 3" to the top of the shade for installation purposes, and 1" to the bottom of the shade for the shade to overlap.
Tip: We typically recommend doing Cordless shades for doors, but if you decide to do a Chain Loop mechanism, we recommend doing the Chain Loop on the opposite side of the door handle.
Now that you have your measurements, it is time for the fun part - design!
With hundreds of fabric options, you can either select a neutral fabric to fit in with your space, or select a fun color or pattern to make a statement on your door. Either way, you can't go wrong!
