Q. What are the fabric tapes?
A. Fabric tapes are a decorator accessory (10% additional charge) that is added to the blinds to pick up color from the room. The tapes are 1 ½ " wide colored fabric that is placed down the length, and on each side of the blind in place of the string ladders.

Q. Is there a charge to modify the controls.
A. No. You can request either a wand or a cord type control to tilt the blind. The lift control is always a cord. Either control can go on either side or both controls can be put on one side and there is no additional charge.

Q. What does 2 on a head rail mean?
A. This is only for wide windows. When a window is too wide, the blinds need
to be split into two independent blinds that share the same top or head rail.
Many times two single blinds will serve the same purpose. There is an additional
charge of $45 for 2 on a head rail, and a $55 charge for 3 on a headrail.

Q. Why do I get a Warning Message when I go to the secure order form?
A. This is NORMAL and is NOT AN ERROR. Our website address is blindoutlet.com however the secure server is located at secureordersite.com, therefore when Internet Explorer checks the names on the secure server certificate and on the domain name accessing it it thinks that there is a problem. This is a bug in Internet Explorer and is not present in Netscape Navigator.
