All orders are supplied with one of the Graber Blinds Valances depending on how your blind is going to be mounted. Difference valances may be available to give your window blind a more customized look. Valances with returns are measured and cut from the inside of the miter for an accurate fit when installed over the headrail or window frame.

On window blinds with outside mounts, orders will include returns sized to cover the end of the blind back to the mounting surface. Outside mount blinds are available without returns upon request. With inside mounted blinds, orders are filled without returns. These window blinds look best when mounted flush to the outside of the window frame since the valance ends are straight cut. If the blind is not completely recessed, you can request returns at the time of your order. The minimum return length is 1 inch. When you place your order, please state if the valance and return measurements are for the exact size required to insure that no additions or deductions are made.

Since the valance's projection differs between a blind with a wand tilter and a blind with a cord tilter, please be sure to specify which tilter you desire when you place your order.

NOTE:  All of the above measurements are to the inside. Full Recess refers to the distance from the front of the blind valance to the wall. The Return Length is the measurement from the inside miter to the wall. For a partial recess, you subtract the actual window recess from the Return Length to get the exact Return Length.
