Protecting your Home with Sheer Shades

Window shades play a key role in home security and protection as uncovered windows present vulnerabilities to the outside world. If your windows are unprotected, this could result in compromised privacy and an increased risk of sunlight and UV damage to items in your home.

The Benefits of Sheer Material

Sheer fabric is a fantastic material for a window covering because, though it looks delicate and refined, it’s a powerhouse of modern amenities. Sheer materials marry view-through visibility with UV protection as they combine the openness of natural light with the protection of an obscured view. Hunter Douglas offers three distinct types of sheer shades and sheer textile options for custom drapery and side panels.

Hunter Douglas sheer fabric material also comes in plenty of colors to complement your home’s design and style, so you’ll get a look that’s beautiful, functional, and will offer premium performance for years to come.

Hunter Douglas Sheer Shades

  • Pirouette® Sheer Shades: A combination of sheer material and opaque fabric vanes that expertly controls sunlight either diffusing the harsh natural element into soft interior light or blocking it for room-darkening effects. Pirouette® Sheer Shades come in over 90 different fabric options to tailor individual sheer shades to the looks of each room.
  • Silhouette® Sheer ShadesSilhouette® Sheer Shades use s-shaped vanes laid horizontally like fabric louvers on a shutter to control the amount of sunlight entering a room with the addition of a back and front sheer layer for elevated control and a soft aesthetic. Additionally, homeowners can choose from small (2"), medium (3"), or large (4") vanes for a customized look in line with their home’s interior design style.
  • Luminette® Sheer Panels: The vertical option for sheer shadings from Hunter Douglas that pulls from the design precision of vertical blinds, the gracefulness of drapery, and the protective features of sheer materials. 

Automating Your Sheer Shades

If you want to protect your home even more, consider getting a Smart Automation feature like PowerView® Automation from Hunter Douglas. This operating system allows you to create a schedule for your sheer shades, with the ability to have them open and close when you’re not even home. If you’re worried about nosey neighbors, prying eyes, or keeping up the condition of your furniture and hardwood floors, then having a system in place where you can close it with the touch of a button will give you peace of mind.

This Smart Automated system gives you the convenience of controlling your Hunter Douglas shades with the touch of a button, your mobile device, or even through voice command. An added benefit to having your shades raised and drawn while you’re away is that it gives your home the appearance of a lived-in look, deterring anyone from looking in.
