Between-glass mounting means the blind is installed between the windowpanes. This is common in paired windows (one inner pane and one outer pane). The advantage of this method is that the blind is less visible from inside when raised, and it is not exposed to dust or dirt to the same extent as a free-hanging blind.

To mount a between-glass blind, measure the distance between the panes to ensure there is enough room for the slats to move freely. The brackets are attached to the upper frame between the panes, and the blind is then hooked onto these brackets.

With free-hanging mounting, the blind is installed outside the glass, either on the window frame, the window list, or on the wall above the window. This is a good option when you have single-pane windows or when you want to cover a larger area to block out light.

The advantage is a flexible sun protection solution that is easy to adjust and clean. However, note that a free-hanging blind will be visible even when raised. Be sure to measure both width and height carefully to minimize any light gaps.

If your window is set within a deeper recess, you can mount the blind inside it. This way, the blind is less prominent in the room and offers a more discreet look.

To achieve this, measure the recess carefully for both width and height so the blind does not rub against the sides when being raised or lowered.

Some modern windows with narrow glass beads allow the blind to be mounted directly on that bead. This provides a sleek, neat solution where the blind sits close to the glass and follows the window as it opens.

Make sure to measure the width of the glass bead accurately. Special brackets suited for glass-bead mounting may be required to ensure a stable installation.
