Residential Roller Shades Roller Shades Summer is a time when we get plenty of warmth and sunlight. Also, it is a time when we have to survive heat and humidity. It takes quite a bit of effort to feel comfortable both when staying outside and at home. Just like we keep cold outside in winter, we have to keep excessive heat and sunlight outside in summer. Roller shades is just one simple yet versatile solution.
Convenient window treatment Roller shades are among the most affordable and user friendliest types of window treatment. They provide a sufficient amount of shade in your home and won’t let it heat up to extreme temperatures. Also, they will prevent your carpets, wallpaper and furniture from discoloration. The best thing about them is their availability and simplicity of pull mechanism. Operation is very easy: you can choose between cord, cordless spring, or motorized control. Another good thing stems from the previous one: simplicity of design entails affordability. This makes a roller shade one of the most popular options regardless of buyers’ age or social status.
Types of roller shades There are inside and outside mount roller shades. Inside mounts are fixed inside a window frame, so that the fabric will cover the glass part. Many home owners choose this type because of sleeker appearance. However, since the shade is always narrower than the headrail that maximally fits the frame, it may leave gaps on both sides and let some sunlight through. Outside mounts are installed in such a way as to cover the entire window frame. The headrail is installed on the part of the wall above and on both sides of the window frame. This leaves zero chance for sunlight. However, it may look a little rough and conceal decorative elements, if any, near the window frame.
Style your home with the best roller shade design you can afford! Roller shade manufacturers are doing a lot to satisfy all tastes. Therefore, roller shades come in all color variations and can be made of a different material, including, but not limited to various types of fabric, vinyl, burlap, plastic, etc. You can choose your preferred pattern from what you see on the counter or have a shade custom-made for you to complement your interior in the best possible way. There are a huge number of roller shade designs that complement all sorts of interior, ranging from Victorian and Baroque to minimalistic contemporary styles. Also, you can choose a shade of any opacity level depending on how much sunlight you want to have in your apartment and whether or not you want your windows to partially retain the scenery when closed.
