Wondering how many to put on each window, how close together? We have fairly large windows in the front of our house &amp; lots of them!

You have to use your own judgment for your situation. I have them quite a distance apart - three or four on my sliding glass doors. You can judge by the places that show evidence that a bird has flown into the window.

only one for each window , however they do fit back windows better than front because of front slop. thats why some people say you need more than one for each window. I have two and use them on the back windows and the provide plenty of air.

To my eye, they look best with a little spacing between the panels. I hung my panels with about 2" spacing between each of the panels, similar to what was shown in the advertising. There is no reason why you can't space them closer together if that looks best to you.

I use 4 for "lightweight" items and 6 for "heavier" items. The more you use, the better they work. They do make plenty of noise so hopefully, you have a door you can close!

The standard packages have 20 clips. You will use up 4 doing a window. That means that one package is good for 5 windows unless you use multiple pieces of plywood on your windows. Since the storm clips are trying to cover windows to prevent airborn material from breaking your windows, nearby houses may prevent some of your windows from damage. During the category 2 hurricane Ike's attack to the South Houston area, I had all my windows covered. a neighbor across the street had none of their window (1st or 2nd floor) covered. He had no window damage. I am still glad that I covered mine. drill two holes in the plywood panels and put a rope through with knots on the inside and a shallow loop on the outside. You can then use the rope to help pull the panels our after the storm. Also, a putty knife between the teeth of the clips will help get the clips to allow the board removal. You probably will need 2 putty knifes on a side to alow the panel to be pulled out. I also found little port holes handy to be able to see outside during a storm. I put a few of these in the panels so that I did not have zero visibility until I removed the panels. Often you will have a day of heavy rain after the storm. During those times, you would not like to be standing outside in the rain; but, you and your family can get "cabin fever" especially if you have also lost power at your house. I hope this is helpful.

Sorry for the delay. I was away from home. I used two together and did have to put a support in the middle as it is a 12 foot window. It would span 6 feet without a support I think.

I put two on one wall with some space between each. I also anchored them to the wall. It comes with anchors

I would use eight of them. I bought four, and though they held, I was much more secure when I bought an additional four and added them. They just do not cost that much for the peace of mind. Hope that helps.

The windows are Velcro so you can not roll them up with it you could just take them off all together, Please let me know if this helped any? Jamie

Hi M. Lachance. I have mine in the bedroom...they block the light perfectly! Yes 4 panels will cover the area. In order to have a medium gather when closed, take 12' x 1.5 = desired curtain total width (18')...divide that by 60" (total width per panel) = 3.6 (or 4) panels needed. Good luck! You have chosen a beautiful curtain...Did you know you can get lots of matching accessories...go to Lonestarwesterndecor.com...I am extremely pleased with the quality of items made by HiEnd Accents. The "Cheyenne Red" collection is also beautiful. Hope I've helped you. I have no idea about the UV protection factor, but it was no concern to me in making my choice. Cheyenne Hi M. Lachance.

Depending on how big your car windows are you should be able to get at least 2 windows covered. After we ordered it I wasn't sure what it was suppose to cover it wasn't impressively big. A window sounds right though now that you mention it.

Yes you can, I have two sets for my front bedroom windows with no problems, but I would recommend that if you are placing them in a window that is easily reached that you also use a security bar or some other means to keep the screens from being forced open.

One per package. I needed three full sets to complete our wall of windows, which meant we only used two ends and all of the middle supports. Luckily we had also covered a smaller window with a fourth set and we didn't need the middle support for that window and added it to the larger set of windows in order to make it all work. Prior to putting it all up, I checked all over town and could not find any supports that even looked like they would work, because I felt that I needed at least two more supports. When I used what I had, surprisingly, it worked out fine. I hope this helps.

Anna..I removed those Black protective pads to get a bit more room to fit my windows. I could have left them on but it was a tight squeeze if I did leave them on. With them removed they fit just fine. When you install them, the thumb screws face inwards towards the room. Just tighten down the screws with a wrench or a pliers. Once I completed my installation, the window is impossible to open. Someone would literally have to smash the glass if they wanted to break in. To be on the safe side; I put two of these on the window track...one on the left side and the other on the opposite side. Hope this information helps...stay safe.

My window is 6 feet Large. I ordered two as I like some puffiness to it. I didn't want to stretch it out. I think if you were to order only one there wouldn't be much room to crease it so I would order 2. Worst case scenario....you send one back.

They will work wonderfully and you'll love the finished look. Anchor them well, preferably in the wall studs. I'm estimating that two will do the job, as evenly spaced as possible.

hi marcia.....you need one for each individual window in the garage door.....four being the most common number in each door
