Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between roller and solar shades?
A roller shade is a single fabric panel that rolls onto a tube. Solar shades are roller shades made with a screen fabric that cuts glare and UV while keeping the outside view; blackout and light-filtering fabrics are also available on the same system.
Can roller shades be motorized?
Yes. Roller shades can be ordered with a manual chain, cordless control or a quiet motor run by remote, app, or voice assistant, with rechargeable battery or wired power options.
How do I choose the right fabric and control for my room?
Think about how much light and privacy the room needs, how often the window is used and how easy it is to reach. Bedrooms often suit blackout fabrics, living spaces suit light-filtering or solar fabrics, and tall or hard-to-reach windows are good candidates for motorization. We bring samples to every consultation so you can compare in your own light.
Do you measure and install, or can I do it myself?
Both. Our team can professionally measure and install in the Halifax and Charlottetown areas, or you can follow our step-by-step measuring guide and order made-to-measure online.
