lockmup68 Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 Need new blinds, DW would like the roller day/night shades. MCD does not have the colors she would like to match the trailer remodel. Automotion wants two legs, heart, and kidney. What other brands should we be looking at?

hanknjoycew Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 Has anyone tried using Lowes or Home Depot? Our parks hosts suggested it. We need to replace our 15-year old stringed day/night shades.

These were cheap but don't have the day shade capabilities. The quality pretty much matched the price but if one goes bad it is easy and cheap to replace Quote Randy 2001 Volvo VNL 42 Cummins ISX Autoshift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_12078 Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 I looked at an RV a few years ago that had "stacked" roller shades, an off white shade that passed a fair amount of light with a room darkener shade mounted just above it so either one or even both could be pulled down as desired. The shades appeared to be standard stock that you would find at Home Depot, Lowes, etc. Quote Dutch 2001 GBM Landau 34' Class A F-53 Chassis, Triton V10, TST TPMS 2011 Toyota RAV4 4WD/Remco pump ReadyBrute Elite tow bar/brake system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanknjoycew Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 I just talked with one of our park hosts who replaced his stringed shades with pleated ones from Home Depot. No strings, but advantages of day/night. We plan to head to HD this week to check them out. He said they were very satisfied.

lockmup68 Posted May 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 We ended up going with Irvine shade with solar day and night. I made the valences out of old pallet wood to match the new decor, and used the spring clips for mounting. Pretty happy with them. http://www.irvineshadeanddoor.com/products/roller-shades/ Quote 2003 International Eagle 9200i, Cummins ISX, Freedomline 2007 Teton Scottsdale XT4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
