Free Stop roller shade specifications
- Operation: Manual and fully cordless, with no strings, cords or chains. Raise or lower the shade by hand using the bottom rail, and it stays at the position you choose. Tension and stopping points can be adjusted with the wheels at the top of the shade.
- Sizes: 20 to 96 inches wide and 24 to 96 inches tall, made to measure in 1/8-inch increments.
- Fabrics: 1% Solar Screen, 5% Solar Screen, Angela Rose, Frills & Drills and Orient. Angela Rose, Frills & Drills and Orient each come in light filtering or room darkening versions.
- Material: Recycled polyester. Every DIM fabric, including the 1% and 5% solar screens, is made from recycled polyester.
- Light control: Solar screen fabrics reduce glare and block up to 90–95% of UV rays while keeping an outward view. 1% solar screen gives stronger glare control and daytime privacy, similar to room darkening. 5% solar screen is brighter and more open, similar to light filtering. Room darkening fabrics make a room much darker but are not full blackout, and a little light can still come in around the edges.
- Valance: Every shade includes a matching cassette valance, round or square, in black, bronze, silver or white. The cassette is 3 inches deep and 3 1/8 inches tall.
- Mounting: Choose inside or outside mount. Inside mount needs at least 2 inches of window depth, and 1/4 inch is deducted from the valance header width so it fits inside the opening. Outside mount shades are made to the exact width you order; we recommend at least 2 inches wider than the window opening. Snap-on brackets and step-by-step instructions are included.
- Roll direction: Regular roll, or reverse roll for doors and windows with protruding handles.
- Production and shipping: Each shade is made in 3-5 business days, then ships via FedEx Home and arrives in 2-5 days depending on location. Shipping is free in the contiguous 48 states, with increased shipping charges for Alaska and Hawaii.
- Warranty and fit: 3-year warranty, plus our Custom Fit Guarantee, which covers the entire shade: if it's too small, we'll remake it or send you a new shade, and if it's too big, you ship it back at our expense and we'll cut it down to the right size.
- Made in the USA: Every shade is made to order in the United States.

Placing An Order
What's the Warranty?
DIM offers a 3 year no hassle guarantee that your shades will function perfectly. Check out our warranty here.
What's the Custom Fit Guarantee?
DIM's Custom Fit Guarantee covers the entire shade. If your shade is too small, we'll remake it or send you a new shade. If it's too big, ship it back at our expense and we'll cut it down to the right size.
How do I know which remote control to order?
If you would prefer to have a remote operation for our motorized system vs only using our smart phone app we offer two remote options. One is a 5 channel (controls up to 5 different shades) and one is a 15 channel (controls up to 15 shades).
What is the difference between Freestop vs Motorized shades?
Freestop Roller Shades: Manual shades with cord-free operation, allowing you to stop them at any position without cords. User-friendly and safe, especially for households with children and pets.
Motorized Roller Shades: Shades equipped with a motorized system, offering remote or automated control. Ideal for convenience, automation, and a modern aesthetic, especially in smart homes or for hard-to-reach windows.
How long does it take to make my order?
Generally our factory produces each order within 3-5 business days. From there we ship from two locations in the United States via FedEx Home, arriving in 2-5 days depending on location, with free shipping in the contiguous 48 states and increased shipping charges for Alaska and Hawaii.
How do I know which fabric style works best for my space?
Simply order a fabric swatch sample so you can see exactly what coloration and translucence each fabric you are considering looks like in your space.
What's the difference between light filtering and black out fabrics?
Light filtering is just that. The translucent fabric provides privacy but still lets a decent amount of light into the space.
Black-out does not have any level of translucence and perfect for room darkening. Black out doesn’t let any light through the fabric itself however with most windows light can still show through between the fabric and the window frame. For complete blackout you’ll need to purchase aftermarket side light blockers.
Pro tip:
Order a sample and hold it up to your window to see the effect in your own space.
What makes your Shades unique?
Our shades are only made out of top tier componentry including mostly metal parts. Zero corners cut here. The shades are also completely cordless. You'll have piece of mind that your loved ones won't get caught in chains, strings, or any other apparatus with DIM.
Measuring and Installation
How do I measure my windows?
Using a tape measure and a helper you should measure your window from side to side both at the top and bottom of the window. Use the smallest measurement to make sure that the shade will fit at each point within the window.
Can I hire someone to install my shades for me?
Yes! Our shades are simple and straight forward to install. Most any handyman service is capable of installing our shades.
How do I know if I should order inside or outside mount?
If your shades will be mounting inside of a window casing you'll want to order inside mount. Our inside mount shades require a minimum of 2” depth for mounting. If you do not have 2” or more depth you’ll need to order Outside Mount. Keep in mind your shade will arrive 1/4" narrower than the measurement you provide.
If your shades will be mounting above a window frame you'll want to order outside mount. Your shades will arrive in the exact width measurment you provide.
What if I need help measuring my windows?
It's simple. Give us a call and we'll walk you through it. If you can hold a measuring tape you can do this.
Can I install the shades myself?
Yes, our shades come with easy-to-follow instructions with durable snap-on brackets. Installation is much easier with a helper but possible by yourself as well. Our shades come with step by step straightforward instructions. To view the instructions, click the link below. You can also click on the link at the bottom of the page to see a quick video showing the process.
What happens if I make a mistake when measuring for my shades.
No worries, it happens. Our Custom Fit Guarantee covers the entire shade. If your shade is too small, we'll remake it or send you a new shade. If it's too big, ship it back at our expense and we'll cut it down to the right size.
Shipping & Returns
With DIM, shipping is fast and free in the contiguous 48 states, with increased shipping charges for Alaska and Hawaii. Keep in mind our window coverings are made custom for you to optimize the best fit possible. Production is typically completed within 3-5 business days. We ship via FedEx Home, and depending on where you live, shipping usually takes 2-5 days after your order is produced.
Because our shades are custom made just for your windows, we are unable to provide refunds or replacements unless the product is found to be defective. In the case that the shade doesn’t fit due to an incorrect measurement, our Custom Fit Guarantee covers the entire shade: if it's too small, we'll remake it or send you a new shade, and if it's too big, you ship it back at our expense and we'll cut it down to the right size. Give us a call or send us an email and we'll help you get your shade size corrected.
I ordered a light blocking inside mount shade. The shade has about an inch gap on either side which lets tons of light in. When you order an inside mount, they tell you that 1/4 of an inch will be deducted from your measurement, but they fail to inform you that applies to the header only and the shade itself will be much smaller. I ordered 35 1/8” and the shade I received is 33 1/2”. Customer service basically said tough luck. No offer to remedy the situation or give a refund.
They are beautiful and easy to install. I measured just as instructed via website. Fit perfectly. Couldn’t be happier.
There is nothing about them I don't love! My only suggestion is to provide instructions for hanging. My husband is a direction reading guy. Couldn't find anything on line or in the package. But now that they are up we love them!!
For what you get the price is rather high….not sure it’s worth the value
Easy to order, easy to hang, and easy on the eyes. So far, so good!
Looks great. Easy to install. Great price!
Easy to install and perform as advertised. The measurent instructions are spot on and they fit perfectly.
I've been really impressed with the Dim Shade free stop shades. The quality is amazing; they are very well-made and really elevate the look in my home.
I chose the 5% solar screen fabric, and it has been the perfect balance of letting in natural light while helping reduce glare and providing privacy. I love that our rooms still feel bright and open while the shades help make the space more comfortable throughout the day.
The free stop feature makes them easy to use since you can adjust them to exactly where you want them without any hassle.
Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the quality, functionality, and design of these shades. They’ve been such a beautiful and practical addition to my home.

The material used for these shades feels very cheap. Quality is not as expected very disappointed. I thought the fabric would feel nicer. Instead it feels rough and almost like gauze as opposed to a nice soft fabric. Not worth the money.
Highly recommend. Work and look great.
This was so easy to install. I purchased a shade for a very large window and hung it by myself while my husband was out of town - because I can’t wait or ask for help, lol. And it was SO easy! The quality is great, blends very well with my white window casing which I was worried would look obvious. If you are thinking about these for awhile like I did, stop thinking and click buy. You won’t regret it. I’m going to buy one for another window that I have been pondering what to do with.
My 4th shade from Dim. I like them a lot. This past one- the screws they included were way too short. Not long enough to go through a regular sheet of drywall and get firmly into the studs.
Super easy to measure, easier to install. Shipping is quite fast.
The solar screen is perfect for my garage and sunroom. Easy to install.
So easy to put up. Sleek and stylish. I love my new shades.
Quality is horrible and service is terrible. 😢
I had to adjust my order and Amy was fantastic. Great communication and so helpful to sort out my order. The shades were easy to install, and the color was a perfect match from the sample. I love the app. It is easy to open and close the shades.
I purchased the Angela Rose pull down
Shade in white with the black header. Works perfectly above my white front door. My door has black hinges and door knob. The light shadow keeps the bright sun out during the day and provides ample privacy at night. Didn’t need the blackout shade. Love it!
These shades instantly made our windows look modern and clean. They block light beautifully and are great quality. They were easy to install as well. We’ll be purchasing more for another room.
Fedex had damaged my shade and Amy was great. She was quick to respond and resolved it within an hour. She sent me tracking once the replacement was on its way.
blackout shades are AMAZING! They are easy to set up and if there is a problem, they have amazing customer service that is happy to help! I absolutely love the way the blackout darkens a room to help keep the sun out when watching movies, sleeping, etc! Amazing
We love the shades. Ordered for my whole house. Had 2 come broken and they replaced them with out any issues!
They arrived just as I had hoped and the whole process was amazing!
This was our 2nd purchase of shades from DIM Shade Co., as we decided to put them in an additional room. The first ones were so great, and easy to install, we chose them again. We were not disappointed!! I love that you can get large samples to see and hold before you actually order, and when we had a question, the customer service was excellent. Would highly recommend!!
They are stunning! However, the install is not simple. They take so much effort to click into place. Not to mention, the inner mount basically negates the black out feature. It’s bright as day the second we wake up. Highly unlikely I’d order these again.
I had high hopes for these shades and they are beautiful. However, their website says that they will cut them 1/4 of an inch smaller than what the measurements you provide are if you’re doing them inside the window which I did. Unfortunately, my shades came one inch smaller on either side so it’s total of 2 inches smaller than the measurements I provided. So while they fit perfectly at the top the shade itself has a huge gap on either side and they look terrible. I reached out to them and asked for them to help me resolve this and they said our website states clearly that you’re going to have a quarter inch gap on each side. I clarified u was aware but mines has an inch gap on each side and no one will respond to me.
Very disappointed
We just built our home and needed shades for the entire house and I’m so glad we went with DIM. Install was a breeze and the product is amazing. I also only received 2 out of my 3 boxes and customer service was amazing. The 3rd box showed up the next day it just got put into another truck. If you’re in the market for shades I highly recommend DIM!
