Roman Shades

Use this 5-step decision guide to build your ideal setup.

Step 1 — Choose the power type

• Rechargeable battery motor → easiest install, no wiring
• Plug-in motor → continuous power for daily use
• Hardwired motor → new builds, renovations, or full-home automation

Choose based on how often you will open/close the shade.

Step 2 — Pick your control method

• Remote control → simple + reliable
• App control → adjust from your phone anywhere
• Voice control (Alexa/Google/HomeKit) → hands-free operation
• Schedule automation → set rise/sleep routines, nap time, or glare control

Choose based on how “smart” you want your window to be.

Step 3 — Select your fabric & light level

• Light filtering fabrics → comfortable brightness for all-day rooms
• Room-darkening fabrics → reduce glare for screens
• Blackout fabrics → bedrooms, nurseries, shift workers
• Premium fabrics → smooth stacking with motor operation

Choose based on function + style.

Step 4 — Match the shade to your window size

• Wide windows → stronger motor torque
• Very tall windows → battery-friendly motors for longer cycles
• Grouped windows → multi-channel remote to sync multiple shades
• High windows → automated schedules highly recommended

Choose based on width, height, and number of shades.

Step 5 — Decide inside vs. outside mount

• Inside mount → clean, architectural look
• Outside mount → reduces light seepage + hides uneven frames
• Deep frames → perfect for motor channels & wiring

Choose based on frame depth + blackout needs.
