Extended depth returns

We are excited to announce that Standard and Extended depth returns will be available for outside mount shades on October 1, 2025. There are no changes to the option or specification for inside mount shades.

Standard depth returns are made to the depth of the head rail. Extended depth returns are made slightly deeper than the head rail and help close the gap between the wall and the back of the shades.

To allow extended returns to fit properly to the shade valance and return back to the wall, we will change the way outside mount shades are made:

• All Outside Mount Standard Shades will be made with a valance that is 1/2" wider than the ordered width. The headrail and shade fabric will be made to the ordered size.
• Outside Mount Waterfall Shades will be made with the shade fabric to the ordered width. The headrail and back valance will be made 1/2" narrower.

These adjustments allow the return to make a clean corner in the front of the shade and clear the fabric at the back of the shade.

This specification update applies to the Inspired Shade Natural Shades and Fabric Roman Shade Collections. ​
