Window SHADE 900 x 300 - with window blind and mosquito net

The SHADE Top-hung window has rounded corners and dark-tinted double glazing, and is ECE R43 approved. It opens up to 70° and fits walls from 30 to 55 mm thick. Delivered complete: blackout blind, fly screen and aluminium mounting frame included.

Choosing the right size

This window measures 900 × 300: these are the cut-out dimensions, meaning an opening 900 mm wide by 300 mm high. This is the only measurement that determines compatibility with your vehicle. Other dimensions are available on the product page for the SHADE Top-hung window with blackout blind and fly screen.

Maximum recommended Cut-out dimensions by van (in mm)

* 450 mm on Master, Movano, NV400; 520 mm on Ducato, Jumper, Boxer, Sprinter, Crafter.

These values correspond to what the vehicle allows. The SHADE Top-hung window is also available in large formats, up to 1450 × 550, for Motorhomes, caravans and living units.

Reinforcements vary depending on the year and model: mark out the cut-out on your wall and check that no reinforcement, cable or conduit runs through it. If in doubt, send us a photo and we will confirm.

The exterior frame extends 3 cm along each axis (overall dimensions: W + 3 cm × H + 3 cm).

💡 Good to know: the interior finishing frame is surface-mounted on the wall. It covers the edges of the cut-out without requiring any additional space.

Benefits of the SHADE window

• Rounded corners: soft lines that follow the curves of vans and blend discreetly into the bodywork.
• Privacy: the dark-tinted glazing (30% light transmission) keeps the interior out of sight without making it dark.
• Double glazing: two UV-resistant acrylic panes that insulate much better than single glazing. The interior stays cooler in summer, warmer in winter, and condensation is reduced.
• A complete window: interior frame, blackout blind, fly screen, inner frame and fixings are included. No accessories to order separately.
• Adjustable ventilation: the window opens outward up to 70° in 3 positions and locks with secure latches.
• Sturdy construction: a reinforced aluminium inner frame holds it firmly against the wall, whether curved (van) or flat (Motorhome, caravan).
• Easy installation: the step-by-step installation tutorial guides you from marking out the cut-out to final tightening. Allow around 1 hour.
• Approved and durable: ECE R43 approval, 2-year warranty and spare parts available for 5 years.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is it compatible with curved van walls?
A: Yes. The reinforced aluminium inner frame adapts equally well to curved walls (vans) and flat walls (Motorhomes, caravans). The slight gap on a curved wall is sealed with Sikaflex.

Q: Is it approved for road use?
A: Yes, ECE R43: installation permitted without manufacturer approval in Europe, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. Compliant with roadworthiness testing and VASP requirements.

Q: Can I replace an existing window?
A: Yes, if the existing cut-out matches one of our dimensions. Measure the cut-out in the wall, not the visible frame of the old window. If it is slightly smaller, it can be enlarged with a jigsaw.
