Replace Pleated Day/Night shades with Roller Shades?

The pleated day/night shades on my 15 year old trailer are starting to show their age. I'm thinking of replacing them with the Legacy Day/Night Combo Roller Shades by Shade Pro. Has anyone installed these or have suggestions for other similar products? It's a little strange that they all cost $210 each regardless of size.

  • I ditched my pleated shades years ago with roller shades from these guys. https://mcdinnovations.com/
    The pricing starts around $200 and goes up from there based on size.

    One thing I could suggest is to make sure that your valance has enough space to house the double roller assembly if you use the day/night shades. Mine is on the narrow side and it really interferes with the operation of the shades. Constant binding. So much so that I am considering changing the blinds out for just simple curtains.
