A Video Guide to Effortlessly Choosing Window Treatments
Know you need an upgrade but wondering how to choose window treatments? We’ll walk you through the 9 most important considerations and narrow down your choices to find the perfect fit for your home.
Types Of Window Coverings
Blinds, shades, drapes, shutters – How do you choose?! Let’s take a brief look at the window covering styles and options available.
Light Control
Unless your window treatments are purely decorative, you probably want them to give you control over the light that comes into your home. Do you want blackout shades that block all light, light filtering shades that gently soften light, or blinds that can be tilted for adjustable light control?
Privacy
If you’re covering windows in a bedroom or bathroom, or live on a busy street – privacy is probably a concern. It’s important to know which blinds and shades offer privacy and which do not.
Energy Efficiency
Did you know that windows are where most of your home’s energy escapes? Save money and stay more comfortable with window treatments that keep you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
Operation
As you’re customizing your new window treatments, you may wonder which lift system to choose. We’ll walk you through corded, cordless, top-down/bottom-up, continuous cord loop and more to find the perfect match for your window needs.
View
Have a great view? Some window shades protect you from glare and UV rays without blocking your view.
