EXPLORE CUSTOM ROLLER SHADES

Roller Shades bring a clean, tailored look to the window with materials that roll around a tube as they rise. Also called Roller Blinds, our custom treatments are handcrafted in the USA. Compare light-filtering and blackout fabrics, solar materials, designer patterns, and layered styles.

COMPARE ROLLER SHADE STYLES

Light Filtering Roller Shades soften daylight; Blackout Roller Shades use opaque materials for room darkness. Designer Roller Shades introduce patterns and textures from our design partners.

Double Roller Shades align alternating sheer and opaque bands across two layers. Venetian Roller Shades use S-shaped vanes between sheer layers for adjustable light diffusion. Explore Solar Roller Shades when UV filtering, glare reduction, and a view are priorities.


CHOOSE FABRIC AROUND LIGHT AND PRIVACY

Compare swatches in your room to assess opacity, color, and texture. Light-filtering materials soften daylight; privacy varies by material.

Blackout Roller Shades

Opaque blackout materials help darken bedrooms and media rooms, but gaps beside the shade can admit light. Side channels can provide additional light blockage. Discuss compatible side channels, mounting, coverage, and layering with a Design Consultant if greater darkness is important.

Solar Materials

Solar materials preserve a view to varying degrees and should not be relied on for full nighttime privacy. They serve a different purpose from blackout fabrics.


CUSTOMIZE CONTROLS AND FINISHING DETAILS

Eligible Roller Shades offer continuous loop, cordless, or motorized control. Double Roller Shades offer continuous loop or motorized control. Check compatibility for your selected style and dimensions.

Compare inside and outside mounting, compatible valances, brackets, and bottom bars. The finishing options depend on the product you choose.
