Roman Shades FAQs
Is there a difference between light-filtering and blackout Roman shades?
Yes. Light-filtering Roman shades soften incoming sunlight while providing varying levels of privacy, depending on the fabric. Room-darkening and blackout fabrics reduce more incoming light, making them popular for bedrooms and media rooms. However, even blackout fabrics may allow some light around the edges of the shade.
Are Roman shades available as cordless shades?
Yes. Select Roman shade collections offer cordless operating systems, allowing you to raise and lower the shades without traditional hanging cords. Available options vary by collection and window size. Cordless designs provide a clean appearance and eliminate accessible operating cords, making them a practical choice for homes with children and pets.
Can Roman shades be motorized or automated?
Yes. Many Roman shades are available with PowerView® Automation, allowing you to adjust your shades using a remote, smartphone app or compatible smart home system. You can also schedule shades to move automatically throughout the day. Motorization options vary by collection and configuration.
Which Roman shade styles are available?
Custom Roman shades are available in a variety of styles, including flat-front, cascading and hobbled designs. Some Roman shades stack into soft folds when raised, while others roll neatly into the headrail. Choose from traditional fabrics, natural woven woods and textured materials to complement your home’s design.
Do Roman shades help with privacy and insulation?
Yes. Roman shades can provide privacy and help manage sunlight and indoor comfort, depending on the fabric, weave and liner options. Select collections offer Duolite® dual-shade configurations that combine two shade materials for greater flexibility in light control and privacy. Insulating benefits vary by product and configuration.
How do I clean and maintain Roman shades?
Regular light dusting or gentle vacuuming with a soft brush attachment can help keep Roman shades looking their best. Cleaning methods depend on the fabric and shade construction, so always follow the manufacturer’s care instructions before attempting spot cleaning or deeper cleaning.
