Simple Fit Shades Include:

• – Artisan Custom
• – Artisan Select

Simple Stick Shades Include:

• – Original
• – Original Arch
• – Easy Lift
• – Easy Lift Select
• – Sheer View Solar

The adhesive on our Simple Stick shades, such as Original, Solar, Arch, Easy Lift Select and Easy Lift Shades, is meant for a one time application. Anything after that and we cannot guarantee how well or if the shade will hold onto a surface for a second time. We do not offer extra adhesive for our shades nor recommend using a separate adhesive other than what is already pre-applied to them.

For our Original, Easy Lift, Solar and Arch Shades

The shades should be mounted onto a clean, dry, flat, smooth surface. We recommend using some rubbing alcohol to wipe the surface area down before full shade placement. This will not only prime the area, but will also help remove any residue from previous window treatments.

We do not recommend the shades to be placed on a wallpapered, freshly painted (within 30-90 days), high gloss or textured surfaces. Drywall, bare, varnished or lacquered wood surfaces are also not recommended for shades to be placed on too.

For our Artisan Select Shades, Artisan Custom Shades and Simple Slide Brackets

These product use Command® adhesive and will stick to painted, stained or varnished wood, glass, tile, painted cinder block, plaster, metal, and painted wallboard. Paint should be fully cured (check paint can for manufacturer’s cure time) before using Command Products. We recommend waiting a week before use on fresh paint. Also, alcohol may remove or dull the surface of fresh paint.

These products should not be placed on brick as they are intended for mostly smooth surfaces such as those listed above. However, they will stick to painted, smooth cinder block (the type found inside many school and office buildings). Wallpaper is also not recommended for the Command® products to be placed onto as it is too delicate and can tear when adhesives are applied.

Adhesive failures on shades are most often due to not prepping the surface or not putting enough pressure on the shade. 

To maximize proper adhesion, the surface you are using for the shade must be completely cleaned with a lint-free cloth and any solvent cleaner (like isopropyl alcohol or methyl ethyl ketone) before installing the shade. This is key for best results. 

Surface pressure is also important when it comes to properly installing the shade. It’s best to apply pressure for 10-15 seconds so that the adhesive on the shade can bond well to the surface. More pressure will be needed if your surface is rougher and textured, less pressure will be needed for smoother surfaces.

Our shades are not weather proofed, we do not recommend them for outdoor use.

100% Satisfaction Guarantee- We stand behind our products. We know you’ll find the look you want with our quality fabrics, construction, and exclusive No Tools Installation. We also know sometimes things go wrong. If you aren’t happy with your shades, please let us know – we will run through a brick wall to make things right.

Cellular shades are the most energy efficient option. They are often referred to as honeycomb shades because of the way the shade’s cells look from the side. Cellular shades will provide maximum insulation and energy efficiency.

Pleated shades are usually made with a single layer of material and have pleats that resemble an accordion. They offer less insulation than cellular shades, but are more affordable.

Head to our measuring guide to learn how to measure your window.

To Remove:

• 1. Gather the shade together so the pleats are condensed at the top rail.
• 2. Starting at one end, gently begin to pull the shade away from the window frame. The top rail of the shade should begin to separate from the window frame.
• 3. Continue doing this until the shade has released from the window frame.

This action will be the same for both inside and outside mounted Redi Shade products, including Arch shades.

• – If residue is sticky, try rolling off the residue using your fingers.
• – If the first technique does not work, apply rubbing alcohol/hydrogen peroxide to residue and let sit for 10 minutes. Next, with a putty knife or spatula, remove residue gently to avoid damage to your window or frame.
• – If the first two suggestions do not work, use Goo Gone (found in many hardware stores). Apply Goo Gone directly to residue with soft pad (folded cloth or paper towel). Let soak for 10 minutes. Then, with a putty knife or spatula remove residue. Use a gentle touch to avoid damage to window or frame.

Note: Plain white paper towels are recommended, due to the transferring of ink that may occur from using printed towels.

We’ve updated the way our Original Arch shades are measured to better fit your window. To determine whether you’ve purchased Original Arch Shade Version 1 or Original Arch Shade Version 2, take a look at the patented trimming scale on the side of the arch. Locate area of the trimming guide to the left of the ruler.

If your trimming guide looks like this:

 

you are using Original Arch Shade Version 1, follow the instructions for measuring and installing listed here.

If your trimming guide looks like this:

you are using Original Arch Shade Version 2, follow these instructions for measuring and installing.

The Original Arch measuring guide is devised to allow for an inch of space, so the shade will fit properly in the window, accommodating the bump in the middle of the arch holder. Head to the measuring and installation guides to learn more.

Included:

• – Bottom rail handle to assist with shade operation
• – Two additional Command Strips from 3M
• – Alcohol prep pad
• – Simple Fit Spacer (to be used if needed)

• 1. Locate the two additional Command Strips provided in the Parts Bag.
• 2. Apply the tab side of the Command strips to the non-tab side of the strips with the tab facing the window side.
• 3. Repeat installation steps.

 

If the red warning line is visible after installation, use the included Spacer to ensure shade is properly installed. Check out the video below for more information.

Before installing the Simple Fit Spacer, please check that:

• – The shade is being installed in the correct window
• – The shade width matches the size ordered
• – The window measurement is correct

To use the spacer:

• 1. Remove the Fixed End mount from left side of head rail.
• 2. Place the Spacer over Fixed End mount.
• 3. Reattach Fixed End mount with the Spacer by inserting into head rail.
• 4. Press firmly to secure.
• 5. Repeat installation steps.

There are two types of handles included with Artisan Custom shades: Standard and Middle Rail handles (pictured below).

HOW TO INSTALL A STANDARD HANDLE:

1. Grasp the shade firmly and locate the lower rail
2. Separate the lower rail from the last pleat at the back of the shade (white side of fabric)
3. Hook the narrow end (non-handle side) of the handle into the groove in the back of the rail
4. Hook the front of the handle around the the lower rail until it clicks into place

Check out our video tutorial for the Standard handle for more.

HOW TO INSTALL A DAY/NIGHT MIDDLE RAIL HANDLE:

1. Grasp the shade firmly and locate the middle rail between the two fabrics
2. Separate the middle rail from the top pleat of the Room Darkening fabric
3. With the clip facing in, guide and snap the handle until it clicks into place

Check out our video tutorial for the Middle Rail handle for more.

To remove the shade:

• 1. Grasp shade with both hands and push firmly toward Trigger End (right side) until Fixed End (left side) disengages. Swing Fixed End clear of window frame, then disengage and swing Trigger End from the window frame.
• 2. Using the Command Tab, stretch the strip slowly until it releases from the surface.

Yes. Simple Fit No Tools Installation is available with Inside Mount only. Outside Mount is available upon request. If you request Outside Mount Installation these special brackets will be included with your order.

Special Brackets for Outside Mount Only:

Outside Mount Brackets

Outside mounted shades do not use the Simple Fit Installation Method. Outside Mount brackets will be required. See Figure A.

Dimensions: 1 3/4” L x 1 3/4” W

Extension Brackets

Extension brackets are available for Outside Mount brackets. These brackets may be needed when the shade needs to operate around an obstruction. See Figure B.

Dimensions: 4 1/4” L x 1 1/8” W

Hold Down Brackets

Hold Down brackets are available for securing the bottom rail in place. See Figure C. Dimensions: 1 1/8” L x 1/2” W

If you plan on using Artisan shades for Outside Mount installation we recommend adding 3” to your width and height measurements before ordering the shades. This means (1 1/2” each side), so the shade overlaps the window  frame for full light control.

Your recorded measurement will be used – no deductions or additions will be made for Outside Mount.

Please contact us, 1-888-608-6611, if you have questions about Outside Mount installation.

Artisan Custom, Artisan Select, Easy Lift and Easy Lift Select:

• – Lightly dust or vacuum with upholstery attachment. For spot cleaning lightly blot with mild detergent and warm water.
• – The shade is not intended for dry cleaning, spot removers, strong detergent or full water immersion.

Original, Original Arch and Sheer View:

• – Lightly dust and/or vacuum with upholstery attachment.
• – Since they are paper shades any contact with water will ruin the shade.

*Note: Dry cleaning, full immersion in water, strong detergents, or spot cleaners are not recommended for any Redi Shade products.*

• – If residue is sticky, try rolling off the residue using your fingers.

If your shade becomes unbalanced and hangs unevenly. Place your hands on the bottom railing spaced an equal distance apart. Gently pull the shade down the full length, or as far as it will go. Help guide the shade back up to the top, keeping the bottom railing as level as possible. This action may have to be done several times until the shade corrects balance. If the shade does not reset, reach out to us, customersupport@redishade.com.

The Easy Lift shades can be quite rigid due to manufacturing and packaging. This may cause the bottom to bounce up slightly after installing. This relaxes over time and with regular usage. To help relax the shade, pull it down as far as it will go, and then push it all the way back up to the top a few times. This should help loosen the internal cords and help keep the shade in the down position.

Arches will not expand by themselves once taken out of the package. They need time to relax since they are packed very tight during manufacturing.

Included:

• – Bottom rail handle to assist with shade operation
• – Two additional Command Strips from 3M
• – Alcohol prep pad
• – Simple Fit Spacer (to be used if needed)

For our Artisan Select, Artisan Custom Shades and Simple Slide Brackets

Command products will stick to painted, stained or varnished wood, glass, tile, painted cinder block, plaster, metal, and painted wallboard. Paint should be fully cured (check paint can for manufacturer’s cure time) before using Command Products. We recommend waiting a week before use on fresh paint. Also, alcohol may remove or dull the surface of fresh paint.

Command products should not be placed on brick as they are intended for mostly smooth surfaces such as those listed above. However, they will stick to painted, smooth cinder block (the type found inside many school and office buildings). Wallpaper is also not recommended for the Command products to be placed onto as it is too delicate and can tear when adhesives are applied.

• 1. Locate the two additional Command Strips provided in the Parts Bag.
• 2. Apply the tab side of the Command strips to the non-tab side of the strips with the tab facing the window side.
• 3. Repeat installation steps.

 

If the red warning line is visible after installation, use the included Spacer to ensure shade is properly installed. Check out the video below for more information.

There are two types of handles included with Artisan Custom shades: Standard and Middle Rail handles (pictured below).

HOW TO INSTALL A STANDARD HANDLE:

1. Grasp the shade firmly and locate the lower rail
2. Separate the lower rail from the last pleat at the back of the shade (white side of fabric)
3. Hook the narrow end (non-handle side) of the handle into the groove in the back of the rail
4. Hook the front of the handle around the lower rail until it clicks into place

Check out our video tutorial for the Standard handle for more.

HOW TO INSTALL A DAY/NIGHT MIDDLE RAIL HANDLE:

1. Grasp the shade firmly and locate the middle rail between the two fabrics
2. Separate the middle rail from the top pleat of the Room Darkening fabric
3. With the clip facing in, guide and snap the handle until it clicks into place

Check out our video tutorial for the Middle Rail handle for more.

To remove the shade:

• 1. Grasp shade with both hands and push firmly toward Trigger End (right side) until Fixed End (left side) disengages. Swing Fixed End clear of window frame, then disengage and swing Trigger End from the window frame.
• 2. Using the Command Tab, stretch the strip slowly until it releases from the surface.

Yes. Simple Fit No Tools Installation is available as an Outside Mount upon request. If you request Outside Mount Installation special brackets will be included with your order.

Special Brackets for Outside Mount Only:

Outside Mount Brackets

Outside mounted shades do not use the Simple Fit Installation Method. Outside Mount brackets will be required. See Figure A.

Dimensions: 1 3/4” L x 1 3/4” W

Extension Brackets

Extension brackets are available for Outside Mount brackets, upon request. These brackets may be needed when the shade needs to operate around an obstruction. See Figure B.

Dimensions: 4 1/4” L x 1 1/8” W

Hold Down Brackets

Hold Down brackets are available, upon request, for securing the bottom rail in place. See Figure C. Dimensions: 1 1/8” L x 1/2” W

If you plan on using Artisan shades for Outside Mount installation we recommend adding 3” to your width and height measurements before ordering the shades. This means (1 1/2” each side), so the shade overlaps the window frame for full light control.

Your recorded measurement will be used – no deductions or additions will be made for Outside Mount.

Please contact us, (888)-608-6611, if you have questions about Outside Mount installation.

If your shade becomes unbalanced and hangs unevenly. Place your hands on the bottom railing spaced an equal distance apart. Gently pull the shade down the full length, or as far as it will go. Help guide the shade back up to the top, keeping the bottom railing as level as possible. This action may have to be done several times until the shade corrects balance. If the shade does not reset, reach out to us, customersupport@redishade.com.

Included:

• – Bottom rail handle to assist with shade operation
• – Two additional Command Strips from 3M
• – Alcohol prep pad
• – Simple Fit Spacer (to be used if needed)

For our Artisan Select, Artisan Custom Shades and Simple Slide Brackets

Command products will stick to painted, stained or varnished wood, glass, tile, painted cinder block, plaster, metal, and painted wallboard. Paint should be fully cured (check paint can for manufacturer’s cure time) before using Command Products. We recommend waiting a week before use on fresh paint. Also, alcohol may remove or dull the surface of fresh paint.

Command products should not be placed on brick as they are intended for mostly smooth surfaces such as those listed above. However, they will stick to painted, smooth cinder block (the type found inside many school and office buildings). Wallpaper is also not recommended for the Command products to be placed onto as it is too delicate and can tear when adhesives are applied.

• 1. Locate the two additional Command Strips provided in the Parts Bag.
• 2. Apply the tab side of the Command strips to the non-tab side of the strips with the tab facing the window side.
• 3. Repeat installation steps.

 

If the red warning line is visible after installation, use the included Spacer to ensure shade is properly installed. Check out the video below for more information.

Before installing the Simple Fit Spacer, please check that:

• – The shade is being installed in the correct window
• – The shade width matches the size ordered
• – The window measurement is correct

To use the spacer:

• 1. Remove the Fixed End mount from left side of head rail.
• 2. Place the Spacer over Fixed End mount.
• 3. Reattach Fixed End mount with the Spacer by inserting into head rail.
• 4. Press firmly to secure.
• 5. Repeat installation steps.

For our Original, Easy Lift, Solar and Arch Shades

The shades should be mounted onto a clean, dry, flat, smooth surface. We recommend using some rubbing alcohol to wipe the surface area down before full shade placement. This will not only prime the area, but will also help remove any residue from previous window treatments. We do not recommend the shades to be placed on a wallpapered, freshly painted (within 30-90 days), high gloss or textured surfaces. Drywall, bare, varnished or lacquered wood surfaces are also not recommended for shades to be placed on too.

Adhesive failures on shades are most often due to not prepping the surface or not putting enough pressure on the shade. 

 To maximize proper adhesion, the surface you are using for the shade must be completely cleaned with a lint free cloth and any solvent cleaner (like isopropyl alcohol or methyl ethyl ketone) before installing the shade. This is key for best results. 

Surface pressure is also important when it comes to properly installing the shade. It’s best to apply pressure for 10-15 seconds so that the adhesive on the shade can bond well to the surface. More pressure will be needed if your surface is rougher and textured, less pressure will be needed for smoother surfaces.

For Original, Sheer View and Original Arch shades: use a utility knife to cut the width (while the shade is folded, stacked in its pleats) cutting though a few pleats at a time. The length can be trimmed with scissors. You can also use the Original Cutter which cuts through all the pleats at one time.

For Easy Lift and Easy Lift Select shades: trim the width on both sides, using a sharp, smooth-edged knife of at least 3.5″.

*Easy Lift is provided with a plastic cutting guide. Easy Lift Select is not.

Turn the top pleat or head railing with adhesive, to a 90 degree angle. Place it flat against the surface above the window. The shade will cascade over its self to cover the window.

The Easy Lift shades can be quite rigid due to manufacturing and packaging. This may cause the bottom to bounce up slightly after installing. This relaxes over time and with regular usage. To help relax the shade, pull it down as far as it will go, and then push it all the way back up to the top a few times. This should help loosen the internal cords and help keep the shade in the down position.

Cellular shades are the most energy efficient option. They are often referred to as honeycomb shades because of the way the shade’s cells look from the side. Cellular shades will provide maximum insulation and energy efficiency.

Pleated shades are usually made with a single layer of material and have pleats that resemble an accordion. They offer less insulation than cellular shades, but are more affordable.

To raise the shade and allow light to come in, the shade will need to be repleated by hand. Each shade is supplied with two clips that are used to clip the shade to itself, at the desired height you would like. The clips can be placed on either the front of the shade or off to the side. To bring the shade down, gently remove the clips and the shade will fall into place covering the window.

To Remove:

• 1. Gather the shade together so the pleats are condensed at the top rail.
• 2. Starting at one end, gently begin to pull the shade away from the window frame. The top rail of the shade should begin to separate from the window frame.
• 3. Continue doing this until the shade has released from the window frame.

This action will be the same for both inside and outside mounted Redi Shade products, including Arch shades.

• • – If residue is sticky, try rolling off the residue using your fingers.
  • – If the first technique does not work, apply rubbing alcohol/hydrogen peroxide to residue and let sit for 10 minutes. Next, with a putty knife or spatula, remove residue gently to avoid damage to your window or frame.
  • – If the first two suggestions do not work, use Goo Gone (found in many hardware stores). Apply Goo Gone directly to residue with soft pad (folded cloth or paper towel). Let soak for 10 minutes. Then, with a putty knife or spatula remove residue. Use a gentle touch to avoid damage to window or frame.

  Note: Plain white paper towels are recommended, due to the transferring of ink that may occur from using printed towels.

We’ve updated the way our Original Arch shades are measured to better fit your window. To determine whether you’ve purchased Original Arch Shade Version 1 or Original Arch Shade Version 2, take a look at the patented trimming scale on the side of the arch. Locate area of the trimming guide to the left of the ruler.

If your trimming guide looks like this:

you are using Original Arch Shade Version 1, follow the instructions for measuring and installing listed here.

If your trimming guide looks like this:

you are using Original Arch Shade Version 2, follow these instructions for measuring and installing.

We have handy guides for measuring and installation with step by step instructions, photos and videos.

Note: Be sure to install the trimmed section of the shade that has red instructional text rather than the excess section without the red instructional text (which can be discarded). This will ensure a proper fit.

Original Arch Shades are designed to be installed as an inside mount and are designed to fit perfect arch windows. While you may be able to cut and trim the shade for some imperfect arches, we cannot guarantee they will work for you. The general steps for imperfect arches are listed below. We do not recommend using Original Arch Shades for Eyebrow or Elliptical Windows.

If you need an arch shade for these kinds of arches, we recommend looking at a custom arch solution which Redi Shade does not offer. Visit your local home improvement store for assistance with these types of shades.

If you choose to use an Original Arch Shade for an imperfect arch we cannot guarantee that it will work and we will not be able to honor the 100% Satisfaction guarantee in this case.

The general steps for Imperfect Arches:
Place the Arch Shade in your window, fan open. Take a pencil and trace, on the excess material, following the curvature of the window. Remove the shade and with a sharp pair of scissors, cut off the excess material, following the traced curve. Replace the shade in the window, and mount it down to the sill. Visit our imperfect arch guide video for more detailed steps and information.

For Original, Sheer View and Original Arch shades: use a utility knife to cut the width (while the shade is folded, stacked in its pleats) cutting though a few pleats at a time. The length can be trimmed with scissors. You can also use the Original Cutter which cuts through all the pleats at one time.

For Easy Lift and Easy Lift Select shades: trim the width on both sides, using a sharp, smooth-edged knife of at least 3.5″.

Yes it does! We offer the Arch in pleated white light filtering paper as well as pleated white and natural light filtering, light blocking and sheer view fabrics. You can also easily paint the Arch Shade to give it its own unique look! We recommend checking with your local craft or hardware store for which type of paint is best for the material.
