Window Treatments and Window Coverings
Window coverings and window treatments are used on virtually all window covering in typical homes. Window treatment provides privacy and added value in energy efficiency. The most popular types of window coverings include horizontal window blinds, vertical window coverings and the typical regular shades. We also have a full section of Hunter Douglas blinds.
The horizontal window treatments can be lifted up and down and also you can tilt the blind to any open position at any angle. The most common type of horizontal window treatment is the standard metal blind or mini blind. These window coverings are made of 100% aluminum and come in tons of unique and standard colors. The second most popular window covering is the 2-inch horizontal window treatment. These are typically made of fake wood (Fauxwood) or real wood. Both of these window coverings are extremely economical and affordable.
Vertical window treatments will go from side to side instead of the up and down like the horizontal shades. This window treatment is very popular for typical sliding glass doors. The most common type is the standard vertical blind. These window treatments have three and one half inch vanes that go down the window. They are made of vinyl or fabrics. Verticals can tilt open in any position for views or can draw to the side to allow access to the window. Sliding panels and vertical cells window coverings are becoming more popular each year.
Regular shades are basically a solid fabric or material that goes up and down. The most common are the cellular or honeycomb blinds, roller window coverings and the hugely popular roman shades. Each one operates slightly different but each is a solid piece of fabric.
