  • Patent number: 10641031
    Abstract: A mountable cover provides a shade or blind for glass/glazing panels for window structures, doors, walls, elevated windows, and skylights. The mountable cover comprises a mounting frame with a panel composed of a material adapted to block at least a portion of light external to and traversing the window glass, the panel sitting parallel to and covering a portion of the window glass to block the light that has traversed the window glass. At least one fastening mechanism comprises one or more magnets and metal plates having a top wall, bottom wall and side walls. Each of the magnets is located on the mounting frame and is adapted to engage with one of the metal plates, which are mounted on the window. When brought into engagement with the metal plates the magnets and plates operate to mount the mountable cover over the window.
