Serenade Roman Shades
|
| |
How do I
clean these shades? |
| |
Occasional
light vacuuming with a soft bristle attachment or
a gentle cleaning with a feather duster will keep
the shade looking fresh and clean. Ultrasonic cleaning
is also an option to consider.
|
| |
What style
roman shades do you offer? |
| |
The
classic teardrop style has soft folds and gives a
room a fuller look at the window. The flat panel style
is clean-lined and tailored, which gives a room a
classic or contemporary feeling depending upon the
fabric used.
|
| |
If I choose
to mount the shades as an inside mount, what amount
of depth is required? |
| |
For
a flush mount, you will need 1-5/8".
|
| |
I have a
window that is approximately 60". Will a Serenede
shade be too heavy for me to raise and lower? |
| |
All
shades above 54" wide and 60" long receive the Omni-Rise
to aid in the ease of operation, at no additional
cost.

Shangri-La Window Shadings
|
| |
How can
I achieve privacy, see the beautiful view outside
and filter the sun, reducing its glare to a soft filtered
glow? |
| |
Shangri-La
window shadings is the answer for maximum light, privacy
control and beauty!
|
| |
How do I
clean my Shangri-La window shadings? |
| |
Simply
feather dust or vacuum this beautiful, sturdy, knitted
polyester fabric. If your shade becomes spotted or
stained, consider using a mild soap with a damp cloth
or sponge and lightly rubbing the soiled area. Never
use chemical cleaners, as they may discolor the material.
Shangri-La window shadings may also be ultrasonically
cleaned.
|
| |
Do I need
to have the fabric louvers closed when I'm raising
the shade? |
| |
The
Omni-View operating system provides different ways
to enjoy the beautiful view outside while controlling
light and privacy. Many options!
- "View-Through"
when Raised: From the open or "view-through" position,
continuing to pull down on the back of the bead
cord will raise the fabric allowing a clear view
outside from below, and a veiled view above. This
exclusive feature allows Shangri-La to be raised
up to two feet in this mode.
- "View-Through"
when Lowered: By completely opening the vanes,
Shangri-La provides a softened view to the outside.
- Partially
Open: Opening Shangri-La slightly will gradually
increase the level of light and allow varying
levels of view-through.
- Fully Private:
When lowered completely, Shangri-La provides complete
privacy and still softly filters light.
- Closed
Top–Open Bottom: By partially lowering the shading
from the fully raised position, the upper portion
of your window will become semi-opaque, while
allowing a clear view below.
|
| |
How much
depth will I need to mount the Shangri-La window shading
as an inside mount? |
| |
For
a flush inside mount, you will need 3-1/8". For a
shallow mount, you will need a minimum depth of 3/4".
Realize that the shade will project into the room,
the difference between 3-1/8" and the actual depth
you have.
|
| |
Does the
soft sheer material of the Shangri-La wrinkle? |
| |
This
fabric is wrinkle free and has an improved fabric
consistency to give a sharper, crisper look.
|
| |
In a formal
setting, is it acceptable to use this treatment alone? |
| |
The
Shangri-La window shading is both beautiful and practical.
This treatment is elegant enough to stand alone or
it can be used with overtreatments to compliment even
the most formal settings. For a softer look at the
top, without adding top treatments, consider the fabric-wrapped
headrail option.

Symphony Cellular Shades and Pleated Shades
|
| |
How do I
clean these? |
| |
Our
non-woven fabrics are inherently antistatic and repel
dust. Occasional feather dusting or vacuuming may
be necessary to keep the fabrics clean. Spills and
stains can be lightly blotted with a cloth or damp
sponge. More difficult stains may require soaking
in water with mild soap. For this, remove the shade
from the window and submerge, soak and rub lightly.
Lay flat to dry or place back in the window and raise
tightly to recrisp the pleats. Please test any stronger
cleaners on an unseen area of the shade before using.
|
| |
What is
the maximum width available? |
| |
Symphony
cellular shades and Perfect Pitch pleated shades offer
seamless fabric up to a width of 96" for standard
rectangular applications. The maximum length available
is 120" for standard rectangular shades. (This is
a common question for customers with a picture window.)
|
| |
What is
the narrowest width available in a cellular/pleated
shade? (Often this is a consideration for sidelights,
flanking a door.) |
| |
For
both the Symphony cellular shades and the Perfect
Pitch pleated shades, using a standard rectangular
application, the minimum width available is 8". The
minimum length available is 8".
|
| |
If I have
different style windows, as well as, a sliding glass
door in my room, will I be able to coordinate all
of these with the same treatment? |
| |
Both
Symphony cellular shades and Perfect Pitch pleated
shades offer specialty sizes for many special architectural
windows. For arch-top windows, consider our Sunset
or Starburst specialty shades. Consider our specialty
shades for trapezoid windows, octagon windows, skylights,
and greenhouse windows, just to name a few!
|
| |
How much
space will the cellular or pleated shade use on my
window, when it is drawn up? (This is frequently asked
when a customer is going to add a top treatment. It
is preferable to have the shade completely hidden
when it is drawn up.) |
| |
For
example, at a length of 96" a standard rectangular
shade stacks compactly to only 3-1/4" including the
rails!
|
| |
How much
mounting depth is required to inside mount a Symphony
cellular or Perfect Pitch pleated shade? |
| |
On
a flush inside mount, you will need a flat surface
depth of 1-3/4". The minimum shallow mounting surface
is 1/2". When installing a shade with a shallow mounting
depth, realize that the shade will project into the
room the difference between 1-3/4" and the depth you
have for mounting.
|
| |
Is this
product safe for children? |
| |
Consider
the option of Chordless! It is the safe, beautiful
answer to this utmost important concern. Chordless
is available when using double honeycomb fabrics.
If you have
not chosen a double honeycomb fabric, cord cleats
are included with every shade we manufacture. Place
the cord cleat at a safe height, taking into account
furniture or other objects upon which a child may
climb. Then, after each use of the shade, be certain
to wrap the excess cord around the cleat.

|
| |
What is
wood alloy? |
| |
Woodwinds

hardwood and advanced thermal-polymers. Unlike 100%
wood only blinds, Woodwinds won't chip, crack, fade,
or warp. They are moisture resistant and easy to clean.
Woodwinds' patented technology makes them the only
wood blind that will be as beautiful tomorrow as they
are today.
|
| |
How do I
clean my Woodwinds wood alloy blinds? |
| |
The
antistatic finish simply requires an occasional feather
dusting or vacuuming. You may also use soap and water
with a damp cloth or sponge, should your blinds become
stained.
|
| |
Will the
finish fade or crack with age or long-term sun or
moisture exposure? |
| |
NO!
Only Woodwinds wood alloy blinds are impervious to
the damaging effects of sunlight, high temperatures
and humidity. Woodwinds is the perfect choice for
bathrooms or kitchens!
|
| |
How can
wood blinds compliment my contemporary décor? Are
wood blinds only traditional? |
| |
Woodwinds
blinds offer pure white, subtle off-whites and even
textured-embossed finishes. Today's contemporary blinds
are often seen in these painted finishes. Consider
our "S"-shaped slat design and trapezoidal bottom
rail to complement your contemporary décor.
|
| |
I like the
look of plantation shutters, but wish I could have
the flexibility of a blind. Is there a product that
is somewhere in between? |
| |
Woodwinds
Privacy Plus shutter blinds are the answer! Privacy
Plus shutter blinds bring together the timeless beauty
of plantation shutters with the flexibility and control
of a wood blind. Our patented interlocking design
reduces the light that can normally leak between closed
slats. Each cord rout hole is covered, thus providing
greater light control, privacy and security.
|
| |
Are traditional
stains available in your Woodwinds wood alloy wood
blinds? |
| |
Yes!
Our wood "stained" colors are remarkable! Each stain
selection, from light natural to mahogany, exhibits
variation in texture and tone, which truly captures
wood's traditional beauty.
|
| |
How much
mounting depth is needed to install the Woodwinds
wood alloy blind as an inside mount? |
| |
To
mount flush, you will need a 3-1/4" mounting surface.
To install as a shallow inside mount, you will need
5/8". Remember the blind will project the difference
between the amount of depth you have and 3-1/4".
