Versatile Roller Shades Fit Just About Anywhere

Roller Shades Or "Rollers" Have A Lot Of Good Points About Them Like …

  • Roller Shades are very versatile, becoming very popular because of the oodles of choices they offer
  • Wide variety of colors, textures, synthetic or natural materials
  • Excellent insulating properties (depending on the material’s ‘screen’ weave count – higher weave count offers better insulation but less outside views and lower count insulates less but improves the view)
  • Unobtrusive when rolled up
  • You can control roller shades by either a pull-down-by-hand or beaded-chain-and-pulley system
  • Spring or bead chain control options (tip: a bead chain is better because there is no need to touch the fabric. With a spring-loaded roller shade, you have to pull on the fabric around the bottom rail every time you want the blind to go up or down)
  • You can stop the shade at any height of the window
  • Sunscreen materials are extremely functional for this product; they have a high-end, sophisticated look of a ‘mosquito screen’ (Note: Sunscreens offer daytime privacy with outside views; nighttime privacy is compromised.)
  • Choose metal cassettes or vinyl valances to cover the roller body at the top of the windows – looks good and clean; the roller is out of sight)
  • The bottom part (the hem) can be cut straight or cut in a scalloped pattern
  • The sunscreen materials can serve as a skylight shade attached to plastic Velcro strips installed around the window sides semi-permanently (e.g. the screens can be peeled off the Velcro strips with seasonal changes)
  • Roller shades can be ordered in a “reverse roll” configuration, making them look neater at the top (the fabric rolls down from the front of the roller instead of the usual rear). This feature also suits situations when trying to avoid door handles and other hardware while moving the bottom of the shade into a closed position (down)
