What are Roman Blinds?
Roman blinds, are one of the most stylish ways to dress up a window. They can be used as a standalone window treatment fitted outside the window or fitted inside the window recess and combined with roller blinds and pelmets for a layered look.
Roman blinds can be made by combining any fabrics of your choice or from a wide range of colours and styles available. For a more traditional feel, roman blinds are perfect as they will also give you that elegant look.

What kind of features are available with Roman window blinds?
Custom window coverings can be upgraded in more ways than just color and style. Here are just a few options that are available with roman shades:
- Cordless Lift: This popular option provides a hidden control system that eliminates the lift cord on your roman shades and enables the shades to be easily raised or lowered with the touch of a finger.
- Continuous Cord Loop Controls: This option means the cords on your roman blinds will be secured to wall or window frame, meaning your blinds will have fewer cords on display. A great choice for larger/heavier blinds.
- Hobbled Fold: In addition to the standard plain flat fold, you can choose to upgrade to a hobbled fold on many roman blinds. This means that when the shade is fully extended, it will retain the soft folds or “loops” for a more traditional look.
- Motorized Lift: With a motorized lift upgrade, your roman blinds can be raised or lowered at the push of a button.

Things to consider
- When pulled up, the fabric will hang in folds at the top of your window.

- For sloped or shaped windows, we’d recommend shutters, vertical blinds or curtains
