How do cordless blinds work?
Cordless window blinds and shades work by using sleek, ergonomic handles to guide your blind or shade into place by gently lifting the bottomrail. This makes it a breeze to control privacy and adjust the light coming into your home. Having window treatments that are so easy to use means you’ll enjoy adjusting your shades and blinds to get the full benefit of the sun, views, and fresh air.
Popular Cordless Shades
Cordless Cellular Shades & Pleated Shades
Cordless cellular or pleated shades work by simply raising and lowering the bottom rail to your desired position. The narrower the width of the window, the lighter and easier the shade is to maneuver. Some cordless shades have a small clear handle on the bottom rail to provide a convenient place to grab ahold of the shade. The whole process feels effortless. Open and close your cellular and pleated shades with a pinch of your index finger and thumb. Cellular shades are a popular product because they increase the energy efficiency of your home with honeycomb-shaped cells that trap insulating air. A cordless configuration turns these versatile shades into the ultimate window-treatment.
Cordless Natural Shades
Cordless natural shades work much like a set of cordless cellular shades and cordless horizontal blinds: lower the shade holding the bottom rail level and then gently pulling it down into place. To raise your natural shades, hold the bottom rail with both hands and tilt the back of the bottom rail about 45 degrees towards you and lift to the desired position. (This 45-degree angle allows the folds of your natural Roman shade to align so that the shade raises more smoothly.) Graber’s sophisticated cordless mechanisms make it surprisingly easy to raise and lower these beautiful and durable natural shades.
Cordless Blinds
Horizontal blinds are everywhere. The cordless version of the ubiquitous horizontal blind is something that must be experienced. A set of real-wood blinds in a cordless configuration seems too good to be true. They can be raised and lowered with complete ease to exactly the position you desire. Lift and lower by holding the bottom rail. This simple process is the same for cordless vinyl or aluminum blinds as well as cordless wood or faux wood blinds. Light and privacy control—adjusting the slats of the blind—can be accomplished with a wand, another cordless control that’s simple to use.
Cordless Shutters
Shutters are one of the most classic and durable window treatments. And, by their simple design, they are completely cordless. But their simple operation allows for several control options. Louvers can be opened or closed using a tilt bar or by adjusting the louvers directly with a hidden tilt option. Split tilt allows you to adjust the top and bottom portion of the shutter separately.
