Frequently Asked Questions
What makes modern Roman shades different from traditional Roman shades?
Modern Roman shades have consistent, uniform folds that stay flat and tailored. No sagging or bunching like some traditional styles. They also have no exposed rear cords, giving you a cleaner look from inside and outside your home.
What's the difference between rolling and stacking Roman shades?
Rolling style shades roll up into the headrail and disappear when raised. Stacking style shades fold and stack beneath a low-profile headrail. Rolling works well when you want a clean look with the shade fully open. Stacking is great for shallow window frames.
Can I get room-darkening Roman shades?
Yes. Vignette® shades come in sheer, light-filtering, and room-darkening fabrics. For bedrooms, you can also choose the Duolite® system, a light-filtering front shade paired with a room-darkening back panel on a single roller.
Are cordless Roman shades available?
Yes. LiteRise® gives you cordless operation. Just push up to raise and pull down to lower. There are no dangling cords, making it safer for homes with kids and pets.
Can motorized Roman shades work with my smart home?
Yes. PowerView® automation connects with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. You can control your shades by voice, set schedules, and create scenes.
Do modern Roman shades help with energy efficiency?
Yes. The fabric and construction help insulate your windows, keeping rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter. Room darkening fabrics also block heat gain from direct sunlight.
What fold size should I choose?
The 4″ full fold has a softer, more classic look. The 6″ flat fold is more contemporary and streamlined. Both look great. It comes down to your style preference.
Do you install custom Roman shades in Omaha and Lincoln?
Yes. We custom-measure and install modern Roman shades, tailored Roman shades, and other fabric window shades throughout Omaha, Lincoln, and the surrounding areas.
