Everything You Need to Know About Zebra Shades
Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades, also known as zebra shades, comprise alternative strips of sheer and solid fabrics. These shades are great for several reasons, including the ability to adjust the doubled-over fabrics for light control purposes. You can also have a clear view when you overlay the sheer shades on top of one another.
Alternatively, misaligning the sheer and banded fabrics provides a darker, more private experience. At Geneva’s Interiors, we want you to understand these great shades in more depth, so we compiled this guide for everything you need to know about zebra shades.
What Are the Benefits of Zebra Shades?
Zebra shades are a type of roller window treatment, making them easy to adjust the shade to align the bands for better light and privacy control. The fabric strips are a modern style that allows you to have an easy outdoor view anytime you want while still getting protection from UV rays.
Some additional advantages of Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades include:
- Being easy to move and adjust for light or privacy.
- Having light-filtering, opaque, or room-darkening fabric options.
- Enjoying better energy efficiency because of a double fabric layer.
- Pairing abilities with the award-winning PowerView® Automation.
How Can I Customize Zebra Shades?
Our design team makes customizing zebra shades to match your vision for your home simple. You can tailor several aspects of these window treatments to reflect your personality and style.
The various components you can change for your Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades include:
- Shade band width.
- Fabric colors.
- Fabric opacity.
- Band patterns.
- Child-safe operating systems.
What Types of Unique Window Shapes Do Zebra Shades Work With?
Aside from standard window shapes and sizes, Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades are compatible with specialty shapes, such as:
- Bay windows.
- Corner windows.
- Patio and sliding glass doors.
- French Doors.
How Do I Clean My Zebra Shades?
Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades are low maintenance, making them a great option for busy lifestyles. To keep them looking their best, dust them every few weeks using the vacuum cleaner brush attachment, a feather duster, or compressed air. However, avoid dusting mitts because they can damage the backing of solid fabrics.
If someone spills something and it splatters onto the shades, you can spot-clean the fabric with a mild detergent and lukewarm water. It’s best to use caution when cleaning your actual windows because most window cleaning products can discolor your zebra shades.
