Custom RV Pleated Window Day/Night Shades Replacement & Color Matching

Customer Question

How can I provide accurate color information to order replacement custom RV pleated day/night shades measuring approximately 66-1/2 inches wide by 24-26 inches high?

Expert Answer

Start with the shade type and the manufacturer's fabric codes, rather than a color name or a phone photo alone. Irvine's pleated-shade color reference distinguishes opaque night fabric, sheer day fabric and rail colors. For example, Cotton Stitchbond 2F and Linen Beige Stitchbond 2J are named opaque fabrics; neither has been identified as a match to the shade in this question.

Ask our team about current physical samples for the exact pleated fabric family, then compare them beside the existing shade in your RV's lighting. The manufacturer warns that digital colors can vary. A sample helps you choose, but does not guarantee an exact match to an older or faded shade. Record the chosen night-fabric code, day-fabric code and rail color separately, and confirm current production availability before ordering. A sample-pack listing or stock status is not confirmed by this answer.

Replace the approximate 24–26-inch height with one confirmed finished drop for each shade. Record the horizontal width, mounting style, valance clearance and existing attachment arrangement using the manufacturer's pleated-shade measuring resources; do not apply a roller-shade measurement rule automatically. The 66-1/2-inch width and approximate height in the question are not an approved manufacturing specification. The current pleated day/night listing is a reference for that style, not a guarantee that the measurements or color have been approved.
