What Are Roman Shades?

Roman shades are a type of window treatment made from drapery fabric. Unlike other shades, Roman shades offer a more substantial, heavier look and feel. They lift and lower in a smooth motion, folding neatly into horizontal pleats. These shades provide a classic and timeless aesthetic that works well with various interior design styles.

Types of Roman Shades

At Custom Shutters of Knoxville, we provide Roman shades in two main styles:

1. Light Filtering Roman Shades: These shades allow natural light to filter through while offering some level of privacy. They are perfect for kitchens or living rooms where you want to enjoy diffused sunlight.

2. Blackout Roman Shades: While blackout models are available, they are not ideal for complete darkness due to gaps on the sides. Therefore, we primarily recommend them for their aesthetic value rather than their light-blocking capabilities.

Customization Options

When you choose Roman shades from Custom Shutters of Knoxville, you gain access to a wide range of customization options:

Fabric Choices

Select from various materials, colors, and patterns to match your home's decor.

Lining Options

Choose a lining that suits your needs, whether it's for light filtration or added privacy.

Mounting Options

Decide between inside or outside mounts, depending on your window's structure and your aesthetic preference.

Cordless or Corded

Opt for a cordless design for safety and a streamlined look, or a corded version for traditional functionality.

  • Kitchens: Add a touch of softness and elegance to your kitchen with light-filtering Roman shades.
  • Bathrooms: Choose moisture-resistant fabrics for bathroom windows to maintain privacy without compromising aesthetics.

Installing Roman Shades

Installing Roman shades is a straightforward process, but it's crucial to get accurate measurements to ensure the best fit. Here are some tips:

  1. Measure Your Window: Use a metal tape measure for accuracy.
  2. Decide on Mounting: Choose between inside or outside mounts.
  3. Check Clearance: Ensure there is enough space for the shades to fold completely when lifted.
  4. Professional Help: Consider professional installation to achieve a flawless finish.

Maintenance Tips

Roman shades are low-maintenance but require some care to keep them looking their best:

  1. Regular Dusting: Use a feather duster or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For stains, use a damp cloth with mild detergent.
  3. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Harsh cleaners can damage the fabric, so use gentle solutions.
