POLY RESIN SHUTTER -
VINYL SHUTTERS ARE OFTEN REFERRED TO AS HOLLOW VINYL SHUTTERS, PLASTIC
SHUTTERS, PVC SHUTTERS AND POLYRESIN SHUTTERS.
VINYL SHUTTERS ARE MADE FROM A HOLLOW PLASTIC OR PVC. THE SHUTTER
COMPONENTS ARE FORMED THROUGH AN EXTRUSION PROCESS USING MOLDS. THE
COMPONENTS ARE CUT AND SNAPPED TOGETHER TO MAKE A PLANTATION SHUTTER.
ATTRIBUTES OF VINYL SHUTTERS
1>ENERGY EFFICIENT.
2>NEVER NEEDS PAINTED.
3>EASILY REPAIRED.
THERE ARE TWO COMMON TYPES OF VINYL SHUTTERS-
1>HOLLOW VINYL STILES, LOUVERS, TOP RAILS, BOTTOM RAILS, DIVIDER RAILS, TILT
BARS, AND FRAMES.
2>HOLLOW VINYL WITH WOOD INSERTS IN STILES, TOP RAILS, BOTTOM RAILS, DIVIDER

A TYPICAL WINDOW BLIND IS MADE UP OF SEVERAL LONG HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL
SLATS OF VARIOUS TYPES OF HARD MATERIAL, INCLUDING WOOD, PLASTIC OR METAL

WINDOW BLINDS CAN BE MANEUVERED WITH EITHER A MANUAL OR REMOTE CONTROL BY
ROTATING THEM FROM AN OPEN POSITION, WITH SLATS SPACED OUT, TO A CLOSED
POSITION WHERE SLATS OVERLAP AND BLOCK OUT MOST OF THE LIGHT.
THE TWO OVERALL TYPES OF WINDOW BLINDS ARE
1> READY-MADE BLINDS

1> ROMAN
 ROMAN SHADES ARE A TYPE OF WINDOW BLIND USED TO BLOCK OUT THE SUN.
 THEY ARE OFTEN REFERRED TO AS ROMANS OR ROMAN BLINDS IN THE UK WHEN
OPENED, THE ROMANS STACK UP EVENLY; WHEN COVERING THE FULL WINDOW HEIGHT,
THEY ARE SMOOTH WITHOUT OVERLAPPING.
 ROMAN BLINDS CAN BE PURCHASED WITH A BLACKOUT LINING ON THE BACK TO FULLY
BLOCK OUT SUNLIGHT.
 UNLIKE OTHER BLINDS SUCH AS ROLLER, VERTICAL, AND VENETIAN BLINDS, ROMANS
OFFER NO OPTION TO PROTECT AGAINST HIGH TEMPERATURES OR MOISTURE, MAKING
THEM UNSUITABLE FOR BATHROOMS.

2> PLEATED
 PLEATED BLINDS ARE SHADES MADE FROM A PLEATED FABRIC (WHICH HELPS TO ADD
TEXTURE TO A ROOM) THAT PULL UP TO SIT FLAT AT THE TOP OF A WINDOW TO HIDE
FROM SIGHT WHEN OPEN.
 HONEYCOMB PLEATED BLINDS, OR CELLULAR BLINDS (ACTUALLY CELLULAR SHADES)
,MADE UP OF TWO OR MORE LAYERS JOINED AT THE PLEATS TO FORM 'CELLULAR'
COMPARTMENTS THAT TRAP AIR, PROVIDING INSULATION.
ADVANTAGES
DUE TO THEIR CELLULAR CONSTRUCTION, CELLULAR BLINDS (AKA ENERGY SAVER) ARE
KNOWN TO THE ENERGY CONSCIOUS AS ONE OF THE HIGHEST ENERGY-EFFICIENT AND
SOUND-ABSORBENT BLINDS OF ANY WINDOW TREATMENT.
FOR GREATER INSULATION, CELLULAR BLINDS ARE AVAILABLE IN A VARIETY OF CELL SIZES,
INCLUDING 3⁄8 IN (10 MM) SINGLE CELL, 3⁄4 IN (20 MM) SINGLE CELL, 3⁄8 IN (10 MM) DOUBLE
CELL AND EVEN TRIPLE CELL. THE MORE CELLS, THE GREATER ENERGY EFFICIENCY.
DISADVANTAGES
CELLULAR PLEATED BLINDS IS THAT SMALL INSECTS CRAWL INTO THE HOLLOW CHAMBERS
AND DIE.

 WOODEN SLATS ARE SOMETIMES USED (IN THE US THESE ARE NOW USUALLY
REFERRED TO AS WOOD BLINDS OR BAMBOO BLINDS).

 SLAT WIDTH CAN BE BETWEEN 16 AND 120 MM, WITH 25 MM BEING
A COMMON WIDTH.

4>SHOJI
 BASED ON JAPANESE SHOJI SCREENS, SHOJI BLINDS ARE NORMALLY THINNER SO THEY CAN BE
TOP-HUNG ON A PANEL-BLIND TRACK- 17MM THICK CONSISTING OF A LAMINATE OF OBECHE TIMBER
FOR LIGHTNESS AND STRENGTH.
 THE WOOD HAS TO BE AIR-DRIED FOR STABILITY AS THE SLIGHTEST WARPING WILL DISTORT THE
WHOLE PANEL.
 NO BOTTOM TRACK IS REQUIRED AND ALMOST ANY FABRIC OR PAPER CAN BE EMPLOYED,
ALTHOUGH 90% OF ALL SHOJI BLINDS USE WHITE POLYESTER TO IMITATE 'WASHI' JAPANESE PAPER.

5> VERTICAL
 UNLIKE HORIZONTAL BLINDS, VERTICAL BLINDS ARE LESS LIKELY TO COLLECT DUST
BECAUSE THEY STAND VERTICALLY.
 SINCE THEY DRAW TO THE SIDE RATHER THAN LIFTING AND LOWERING, THEY ARE
EASIER AND FASTER TO OPERATE.
 THEY OPERATE BETTER ON DOORS AND WINDOWS THAT ALSO SLIDE FROM SIDE TO
SIDE.
 VERTICAL BLINDS BECAME AVAILABLE IN FLAT PLASTIC (PVC), FABRIC, EMBOSSED
PVC, FAUX WOOD MATERIALS, METAL, WOOD AND ALSO S-CURVED SLATS.
 A MORE MODERN MODIFICATION IS TO OFFER THEM WITH WOODTRIM AT TOP AND
BOTTOM- SOMETIMES MIDWAY AS WELL- AND THESE ARE USUALLY DESCRIBED AS
'JAPANESE VERTICAL BLINDS' BECAUSE THEY ARE OFTEN CO-ORDINATED WITH
JAPANESE STYLE SHOJI BLINDS USING THE SAME TIMBER.

 CUSTOM MADE ROLLER BLINDS COME IN BLOCKOUT, TRANSLUCENT AND
SUNSCREEN OPTIONS.
 THEY ARE MOUNTED ON A METAL HEADRAIL AND OPERATED WITH A SIDE CHAIN OR

DRAPERY
 A CURTAIN (SOMETIMES KNOWN AS A DRAPE, MAINLY IN THE UNITED STATES)
IS A MOVABLE SCREEN OR DRAPE PIECE OF CLOTH INTENDED TO BLOCK OR
OBSCURE LIGHT, OR DRAFTS, SEPARATES THE STAGE FROM THE AUDITORIUM
OR THAT SERVES AS A BACKDROP.
 CURTAINS COME IN A VARIETY OF SHAPES, MATERIALS, SIZES, COLORS AND PATTERNS.
 CURTAINS VARY ACCORDING TO CLEANABILITY, ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT DETERIORATION, OIL
AND DUST RETENTION, NOISE ABSORPTION, FIRE RESISTANCE, AND LIFE SPAN.
 CURTAINS MAY BE MOVED BY HAND, WITH CORDS, BY PRESS-BUTTON PADS OR
REMOTE-CONTROLLED COMPUTERS.
 CURTAINS ARE A FORM OF WINDOW TREATMENT, AND COMPLETE THE OVERALL
APPEARANCE OF THE HOUSE. WINDOW TREATMENT HELPS CONTROL THE AMBIANCE
AND FLOW OF NATURAL LIGHT INTO THE ROOM.

MATERIALS FOR DRAPERY
 ANOTHER IMPORTANT FACTOR WHEN SELECTING CURTAINS IS THE MATERIALS THEY’RE
CONSTRUCTED FROM.
 THINNER MATERIALS ARE USED TO CREATE SHEER OR SEMI-SHEER MATERIALS WHILE
THICKER MATERIALS ARE USED IN SEMI-OPAQUE AND BLACKOUT CURTAINS.
1> COTTON
COTTON IS SEMI-SHEER, SO IT LETS IN LOTS OF LIGHT WHILE STILL PROVIDING A MODERATE
LEVEL OF PRIVACY.
COTTON CURTAINS ARE OFTEN LAYERED WITH OTHER FABRICS TO CREATE A COMPLETE
WINDOW TREATMENT.
COTTON CURTAINS ARE ALSO EASY TO CLEAN, WHICH MAKES THEM EVEN MORE VERSATILE.
2> LINEN
LINEN CURTAINS ARE A BIT HEAVIER THAN COTTON.THEY LET IN A MODERATE LEVEL OF LIGHT
WHILE PROVIDING AN ADDITIONAL LEVEL OF PRIVACY. LINEN CAN BE A BIT MORE DIFFICULT
TO CLEAN THAN COTTON. IT’S PROBABLY NOT THE BEST CHOICE FOR DUSTY ENVIRONMENTS
AS THE ROUGH TEXTURE OF LINEN CAN ACT AS A MAGNET FOR DUST.

3> VELVET
 VELVET IS A HEAVY MATERIAL THAT KEEPS OUT DRAFTS AND REDUCES OUTSIDE
NOISE.
 VELVET IS A POPULAR CHOICE FOR BEDROOMS WITH LIGHT-SENSITIVE SLEEPERS.
 IT’S ALSO A GREAT FABRIC TO USE TO CREATE A MORE DRAMATIC EFFECT ON YOUR
WINDOWS.
 VELVET IS USUALLY CLEANED PROFESSIONALLY, AS IT’S A DIFFICULT FABRIC TO
CLEAN.

4> SILK
 IT’S SEMI-SHEER AND DEPENDING ON HOW THICK THE SILK IS, IT MAY LET IN LOTS OF LIGHT, OR A
LIMITED AMOUNT OF LIGHT.
 SILK IS DIFFICULT TO CLEAN, AND USUALLY, REQUIRES PROFESSIONAL HELP FOR CLEANING.
5> LACE
 LACE IS A SHEER FABRIC, WHICH MAKES IT THE BEST CHOICE IF YOU’RE LOOKING TO CREATE A
LIGHT, BRIGHT AND AIRY WINDOW TREATMENT.
 LACE IS MOST POPULAR IN KITCHENS, LIVING ROOMS, OR ANY OTHER AREA OF THE HOME WHERE
YOU’D LIKE TO LET IN LOTS OF LIGHT.
 LACE CURTAINS CAN ALSO BE PAIRED WITH HEAVIER FABRICS TO CREATE A MORE VERSATILE
WINDOW TREATMENT.

6> SYNTHETIC
 SYNTHETICS ARE CHEAPER TO PRODUCE THAN NATURAL FIBERS, AND THEY’RE USUALLY
EASY TO CLEAN AS WELL.
 SYNTHETIC FABRICS CAN MIRROR THE LOOK AND FEEL OF ANY OF THE NATURAL FABRICS
LISTED ABOVE.
 THEY’RE USUALLY A CHEAPER OPTION THAN NATURAL MATERIALS AS WELL.
7> BURLAP
 BURLAP HAS A SIMILAR LOOK AND TEXTURE TO LINEN, BUT IT’S MUCH HEAVIER WEIGHT THAN
LINEN IS.
 THIS FABRIC IS CASUAL AND PLAIN, AND IT PROVIDES A GREAT DEAL OF PRIVACY WHILE
ALLOWING MINIMAL LIGHT OR NO LIGHT AT ALL WHEN YOU CLOSE THE CURTAINS.
 BURLAP IS EASY TO CLEAN AND IT LOOKS GREAT IN CASUAL APPLICATIONS.

 A PELMET (ALSO CALLED A "CORNICE BOARD") IS A FRAMEWORK PLACED ABOVE A WINDOW,
USED TO CONCEAL CURTAIN FIXTURES.
 THESE CAN BE USED DECORATIVELY (TO HIDE THE CURTAIN ROD) AND HELP INSULATE THE
WINDOW BY PREVENTING CONVECTION
CURRENTS.
 IT IS SIMILAR IN APPEARANCE TO A VALANCE, WHICH PERFORMS THE SAME FUNCTION BUT
IS MADE OF FABRIC. A PELMET CAN BE MADE OF PLYWOOD, AND MAY BE PAINTED, OR
FABRIC COVERED.

BLINDS, OR CURTAINS.
 VALANCES ARE A POPULAR DECORATIVE CHOICE IN CONCEALING DRAPERY HARDWARE.
 WINDOW VALANCES WERE POPULAR IN VICTORIAN INTERIOR DESIGN. IN DRAPING OR BUNTING
