Pleated Shades
Versatile and popular, pleated shades can help you dress up your windows, increase your home’s privacy, and control the amount of light that enters a room. They work well on standard windows and bay windows as well as glass doors. A variety of colors, patterns, and designs are available, and the experts at American Window Company can help you find the perfect fit. We also have a number of customization options to ensure that your pleated blinds work well for your home and family.
Versatile Beauty
Pleated shades come in a number of styles, fabrics, and colors, so you’re sure to find an option that matches your home’s decor and your personal style. You can even find pleated shades in different textures and patterns. Whether you want to make a bold statement or allow your window treatment to blend in with its surroundings, pleated shades can help you accomplish your design goals. Plus, they pair beautifully with drapery if you want a more formal look.
Take Control of the Light
You can’t control the sun, but you can control how much light (or how little) light enters a room using pleated shades. If you want to welcome the light in, consider sheer or semi-private shades. If you want to boost your privacy and ensure you get a good night’s sleep, consider adding a room-darkening liner to your pleated shades. The choice is yours.
Customize Your Experience
We want you to adore your new shades. To ensure they fit your needs, consider adding the following customization options:
- Motorized Lift: Raise and lower your shades with the touch of a button! This is an ideal solution for hard-to-reach windows.
- Continuous Cord Loop: Because the cords will be secured to a wall or window frame, you’ll have fewer cords on display. This is a great option for large windows.
- Cordless Lift: Eliminate cords altogether and easily raise and lower your shades with the touch of a finger.
- Top-Down Bottom-Up: Raise and lower your shades from both the top and bottom, ensuring customized privacy and light control.
- Two-on-One or Three-on-One: Combine multiple shades on one headrail on side-by-side windows for a more unified look.
Pleated Shades vs. Cellular Shades
You might be wondering how pleated shades compare with cellular shades. Pleated shades are more economical than cellular; however, they also offer less insulation. In addition, pleated shades have visible cords running through them vertically, while cellular shades conceal these cords. Finally, both sides of pleated shades are the same color (though you can add a liner to change this). With cellular shades, the back is typically white.
