Contemporary Roman Shades

Description 

Your home is your palace, and these exquisite Contemporary Roman Shades exude grandeur - combining the look and feel of drapery with the convenience and simplicity of shades. From soft velvets and tweed-like fabrics to bold, daring patterns, enrich any room in your home with this modern take on traditional style.

Customize these shades based on the amount of natural light you want coming into the room. For a complete light-filtering effect, order the shades without a liner (note that the shade colour will show on the street side of the window). Adding the standard liner filters in less light (and shows the white or ivory colour of the lining on the street side), while the blackout liner is perfect for bedrooms or media/home theatre rooms.

Select from a variety of convenient lift systems, including cordless or motorized – the safest choices for any home with kids or pets. You can also choose between our standard flat-fold style or you can amp up your décor with an elegant soft-fold upgrade. And, finally, dress up your window with the 6” valance to finish the look.

• Multiple shade orders of different heights may not have the same size pleats. We recommend ordering all shades using the longest length in the room.
• Standard lift cords are located on the back of the shade unless a valance is ordered, then they are located on the front.
• Lift cords and headrail components will be visible from the back on sheer fabrics.
• Valance upgrade available with standard corded and optional cordless lift systems only.
• Outside mount valances come with valance returns.
• Fabric will fall 2+ inches from the wall on outside mount. We recommend 4+ inches be added to the width of your shade when outside mounting to prevent light gaps.
• Soft fold is only available with standard light filtering liner or blackout liner.
• Sheer fabrics are only available with flat fold style.
• Sheer fabrics are only available unlined.
• Liner colour will be visible from street. Colour of unlined shades will be seen from the street.
• Motorization is not available for outside mounts.
• Fabric colour can vary from one dye lot to another. To ensure that all materials are from the same dye lot, please order shades for the same room at the same time.
• Fabric roman shades may have some wrinkles after installation. Most minor wrinkling will smooth out within a few days. For faster results, you can use a garment steamer on the back of the shade, but please be careful to avoid any contact with the fabric.
• Cordless shades should be raised slowly for optimal performance.
• Hold down brackets are not available on this product
• The no-tools installation headrail comes in white and is only available for inside mount.

• The locking mechanism on the no-tools installation headrail will be located on the opposite end of the control side selected for Continuous Cord Loop. The locking mechanism will be located on the right side for Cordless and Motorized options.
• IMPORTANT MEASURING TIP: If the no-tools installation headrail is chosen, measure the exact width of the top of your window frame and use those measurements as your width. Do NOT take the smallest of the three measurements, which may cause your headrail to not fit properly.

Motorization

• At least one remote is needed per order. The 5-channel remote operates 5 shades on a single frequency. The 15-channel remote allows you to operate up to 15 shades on a single frequency. When adding a multi-channel/frequency remote, please select 'No Remote' for any additional motorized shades you want to add to and power with it.
• Motorization lift system upgrade includes rechargeable motor battery and charger.
• Battery charge will last up to 6 months based on an average-sized shade raised and lowered twice a day.  It takes approximately 4 hours to recharge the motor when fully depleted.
• Remote reaches from approximately 65-80 feet away from shade.
• Remote is already programmed to the motorized shade.  All that is required is to connect the battery to the motor and your shade is ready to operate.
