Problem

Valance fabric is not level.

Solution

Carefully detach the fabric from its hook-and-loop attachment and  
re-position it.

Problem

There is a light gap at the top of the  window frame.

Solution

If a valance was ordered with the shade, the  valance fabric can be adjusted 
using the hook- and-loop attachment to minimize the light gap or accommodate 
uneven applications.

Problem

The battens or folds don’t align.

Solution

Side-by-side shade alignment is guaranteed  within ¼" when shades are 
ordered at the same  time, and in the identical style, fabric, lining,  color, height, 
lifting system, and mounting style.  Side-by-side shades must be specified on 
the order form. 

In order to achieve custom shade heights for  Hunter Douglas Design Studio

 

Roman shades,  spacing from the top of the shade to the first  batten or fold may 
be more or less than the  consistent spacing between battens or folds   on the 
rest of the shade. This is called “top  indexing.”
