Fabric Vertical Blinds
If your home has a sliding glass door or another large expanse of glass, you might be considering vertical treatments for your covering. At Altra Home Décor, we carry the full line of Hunter Douglas window fashions, including lots of vertical solutions. And lately, we’ve noted that some of the most popular vertical treatments are fabric vertical blinds, which offer numerous benefits. If you’re interested in learning more, read on, and be sure to contact one of our representatives to see these treatments in person.
Soft Accents With Custom Vertical Blinds
Fabric vertical blinds give you the functionality of a vertical treatment with the elegant aesthetics of drapery. While other vertical blinds might be made of aluminum, vinyl, or wood or alternative wood, the cloth in fabric vertical blinds allows for give, so they tend to hold their shape better over the years. Plus, they move with less noise.
Protect and Beautify With UV Control
One of the biggest functions of any window treatment is to protect against harmful UV rays while still letting in natural light, and it’s especially true for larger windows. And keep in mind that even sheers can help protect from the sun’s damage. For example, Luminette® Privacy Sheers filter light while shielding from UV rays while looking like soft, sophisticated, shimmery sheers.
Add a Modern Feel to Your Design
Skyline® Gliding Window Panels, available in over 600 fabrics, are sleek and contemporary. They have a minimal stack size, so they don’t intrude or bunch, and they can coordinate easily with Designer Screen or Roller Shades. Also a great room divider, Skyline Panels provide a modern look to any room.
Mind the Gap
To alleviate incoming light from mounting gaps, the patented headrail available on Cadence® Soft Vertical blinds and Somner® Custom Vertical Blinds provides a symmetrical, tight fit. Cadence includes the DualFold™ double-tiered valance, while Somner works well on odd shaped openings like angles, arches, and skylights.
Lift Systems Available
Hunter Douglas offers a variety of lift systems, from standard manual operations to motorized systems. They all offer pet and child safety, and some offer more. UltraGlide® is a retractable cord system that lets you move your shades with no ugly, dangling external cords. LiteRise® is a cordless system that lets you gently move your shades with slight pressure from your hand. PowerView® Automation is a wireless operating system that can be used with a PowerView® Pebble® remote or with your mobile device or tablet, even if you’re not at home.
