What is a Dual Banded Shade?
Dual banded shades are a modern window treatment that combines two layers of fabric—one sheer and one opaque. These alternating fabric stripes allow for customizable light control and privacy. By adjusting the position of the fabric layers, you can achieve different levels of light filtration. When the opaque stripes align, they block out light, while the sheer stripes allow natural sunlight to gently filter through.
Benefits of Dual Banded Shades

An advanced option for convenience, allowing you to control the shades with a remote, smartphone app, or smart home system.

A traditional method where a cord is used to raise and lower the shades. This system provides precise control but may require careful management.
Spring-Loaded
All shades operate via a simple mechanism that allows you to adjust the shade to your desired height. Common operating options include:
For a more compact and cord-free solution, this option uses a spring mechanism to raise and lower the shade.
