Why Hunter Douglas Pirouette® Window Shadings
At Window Products, our customers often ask us about the evolution of Hunter Douglas products. In 1991, Hunter Douglas introduced a revolutionary new window treatment that could be operated with precise light control with the vanes suspended between two sheers. These were the Silhouette® Window Shadings. When raised fully, the Silhouette® shading disappeared into the fabric-covered headrail. It was a clean, sleek and modern approach to covering windows, and it is still very popular in the Connecticut area today. [Read more…]
Hunter Douglas Sheer to Opaque Window Treatments
One of the the most important factors to consider when choosing new window treatments is how much light they let in. Sheer window treatments, for example, simply diffuse light while opaque window treatments block it entirely. As your local Hunter Douglas dealer serving Connecticut, we have a variety of window coverings in fabrics ranging from sheer to opaque. Hunter Douglas window treatments are rated for how they measure light control on a scale of 1 to 4. [Read more…]
