Inside Mount vs Outside Mount
Inside mount: blinds sit recessed inside the window frame. Cleaner look, requires at least 2" of frame depth, demands precise measuring.
Outside mount: blinds extend over the trim and beyond. More forgiving on measurements, hides irregular window frames, blocks more light.
For Fresno homes with crown trim or wide casing: outside mount usually looks better. For modern builds with minimal trim: inside mount.
Motorized Shades for Fresno
lower cost of living means bigger homes and more space per project Motorized shades hit mainstream pricing in 2024-2025. The setup: rechargeable battery (1-year life), or hardwired to a low-voltage transformer. Smart integration via Lutron Serena, Hunter Douglas PowerView, or generic Zigbee shades.
Schedule them to lower at sunset, raise at sunrise, or trigger with thermostat (raise blinds when AC kicks on to leverage natural light). For high or hard-to-reach windows, motorization is the only practical answer.
