An insulated glass window assembly including an integral shade that can be raised and lowered at both its upper and lower edges. The assembly includes an insulated glass, a frame for mounting the insulated glass within a supporting structure, the shade within the glass, and operator bars outside the glass. The operator bars are magnetically coupled through the glass to the upper and lower edges of the shade. Accordingly, the upper and lower edges can both be raised and lowered independently to provide a wide variety of positioning options.

A retrofit blind assembly for a doorlight. The assembly includes a frame, a transparent panel, and a blind snap-fitted to the frame. The blind actuator includes gears and a toothed belt for positive, non-slip actuation. A pair of blind guides are mounted on the opposite sides of the frame to receive and guide the opposite ends of the blind. The mounting system includes a pair of brackets that can be secured between the doorlight and the door and upon which the assembly can be hung. The mounting system also includes a pair of movable catches on the lower portion of the frame snap that can be locked behind the doorlight to secure the lower end of the assembly.
