A key question to ask yourself as you shop for window treatments is, “Am I a tilter or a lifter?” At Value Blind and Heirloom Draperies, a Hunter Douglas Gallery dealer serving the Washington DC area, we can show you window treatments options that will match your preferred style.
Are You a Tilter?
Being a tilter means you like to leave your window treatments in place and just rotate them open and closed. Blinds, shutters, and shadings are best for you, including:
- Wood Blinds
- Vertical Blinds
- Aluminum Blinds
- Silhouette or Nantucket Window Shadings
- Pirouette Window Shadings
- Luminette Privacy Sheers
- Shutters
Are You a Lifter?
Being a lifter means you like to see through an unobstructed window, opening your window treatment to see out, and closing it for complete privacy. Any of our wide variety of shades are best for you, including:
- Duette or Applause Honeycomb Shades
- Design Studio Roman Shades
- Designer Screen Shades
- Designer Roller Shades
- Pleated Shades
- Provenance Woven Wood Shades
- Vignette Modern Roman Shades
Motorization for Tilters and Lifters
Whether you’re a tilter or a lifter, you can add motorization options to almost any window treatment. Your options include:
- PowerRise® – raise or lower individual or groups of window treatments
- PowerGlide® battery powered – tilts slats open or closed
- PowerTilt™ battery-powered tilts slats open or closed
- Platinum™ technology – hard-wired with wall switch or remote through any home automation system.
- Platinum™ App – control your Hunter Douglas window treatments via your Apple or Android device
