Roman shades are best kept to the professional window covering manufacturers as they are intricate and very delicate window treatment involving fabric, multiple hemlines, folding of fabric and string operations connecting each section for a tear drop effect when raising. Roman shades are available in light filtering, room dimming and blackout.
Window blinds are available in room dimming and blackout. Shadeomatic Honeycomb shades offer foil-infused blackout blinds that allow no light to transfer through the blinds and fit fairly tight to the sides, top and bottom. Shadeomatic trilight shades are the same with the added flexibility of a sheer blind on the top portion of a blackout shade. Roller shades have a blackout liner option that makes any fabric full privacy although there is some uncovered parts on the side. Roman shades are available in blackout fabrics and zebra blinds have dim out and blackout blind categories. Verticals are considered room darkening and shutters room dimming.
PVC vertical blinds can be dusted with a dry duster or cloth and dampened for cleaning dirt, grease or build up. Wiping towards the floor is recommended and multiple times for the best clean.
If you are installing the vertical blinds inside the window trim you would want to measure the width at the top and the height in three different spots (right, centre, right) using the shortest measurements to ensure smooth opening, closing and tilting of the vertical blind vanes.
If you are installing the vertical blinds outside the window trim you would want to measure the width at the top, center and bottom and same for the height: right, center, left. Use the largest measurement and add 2 inches to each side and top, left, right. This will provide full coverage of the glass on the door and the best coverage along with room for the brackets at installation time.
Front door windows vary in size but most blinds are suitable for doors. Most popular would be frosting, shutters and 2” faux wood blinds or roller shades, followed by mini blinds, 2” faux wood blinds, roman shades and honeycomb blinds.
If an outside mount you would measure the height in 3 different spots (left, center, right) and add 2 inches for the headrail during installation. For the width measurement in 3 different spots (top, middle, bottom) and use the largest measurement for the best coverage.
Vertical blinds can be opened in the middle/center or go all to one side (right or left). This function is determined during ordering and before production and is operated by using a string control.
California shutters pricing varies, depending on quality and quantity. It is best to order a minimum of 50 square feet or 3 windows with an advantage once over 10 windows or 150 square feet. Some shutters are priced per width and height while others are per square feet.
Shutters and blinds are best dusted with a soft cleaning tool to remove and gently brush off, if a damp cloth is required or removal of stain the less friction the better unless the window blind is waterproof ie, shutters or solar screen roller shades. Cool settings on a hair dryer can be used to blow off dust as well or a low suction vacuum.
