Types of Window Treatments – Draperies Treatment Specialist
There are many types of window treatments. A panel track is one type of panel treatment and it comprises one or more panels that slide along a track. Most panels are 24″ to 30″ wide. These treatments may be manually operated or motorized. A sash rod is a short, utilitarian rod that is attached to the top or bottom of the treatment. The panel track allows for ease of dressing and is usually used to conceal the cord.
The fabric that is used for a window treatment is important to choose. Some fabrics are self-lined, which means that they are lined with the same fabric that is used for the face treatment. Sheer fabrics, on the other hand, are lightweight and translucent, and are often made with a lining to prevent the fabric from fading. Sheer fabric is often gathered and hung on a rod for a custom-fit look. Shutters are also available, which are hinged panels that can be opened or closed for security, privacy, or light control.
ADO Cordon is a type of string curtain that can be made with machine-crocheted yarns. It is flexible and can be cut to the desired measurements. This type of treatment is available in both commercial and residential settings. Cornelly Hems are a type of embroidered pattern, while a cornice is a flat top treatment. In some cases, window treatments must be installed on a padded and upholstered board.
Choosing the right window treatment material for the application is very important. For example, sheers can filter light well but may not hold up well in a children’s room. Additionally, the drape and stretching of the fabric affects the appearance. A good quality fabric will make the window look beautiful no matter what the environment is like. For example, the sheers can add square footage and allow for more natural light.
The materials that a window treatment specialist uses should match the purpose for which they will be used. The use of sheers, for example, may filter light nicely, but they may not hold up well in a child’s room. The type of fabric also affects the amount of light coming through the window and its effect on the look of the room. In general, sheers should be chosen for their function.
