Everyone loves an oversized window that allows for extra light to enter your space– as well as a great view. But how do you find shades that fit these uniquely sized windows? That’s where extra wide roller shades can help.
Extra wide roller shades are the perfect solution for everything from sleek, modern homes with floor-to-ceiling glass to commercial spaces with oversized windows. But they don’t just look good— they work hard too.
Let’s dive into why extra wide roller shades might just be the solution for you, with options for customization as a bonus.
Why Choose Extra Wide Roller Shades?
Extra wide roller shades are specifically crafted to address the unique challenges of large windows, creating a balance between function and style.
Here’s why they’re a must-have for homes and offices alike:
Minimalist Design
If you’re seeking a minimalist style that’s simple to operate, extra wide roller shades are your best bet. Their simple, clean lines and unobtrusive design make them an excellent fit for any space, whether you prefer ultra-modern spaces or more traditional interiors. Unlike bulky drapes or blinds, roller shades create a streamlined look available in a wide range of fabric options that allow you to tailor the shades to your style.
Light Control and Privacy
Large windows flood spaces with natural light, but without proper coverings, they can also cause glare, overheating, or a lack of privacy. Extra wide roller shades let you take control, offering multiple levels of light filtration.
Choose light-filtering fabrics to maintain a soft glow in the room or blackout options to block light entirely— perfect for bedrooms or media rooms. But beyond light control, these shades also create privacy, allowing you to enjoy your space without sacrificing your view.
Energy Efficiency
Windows are a major source of heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, especially when they cover a significant area of a wall. Extra wide roller shades act as an insulating barrier, helping to stabilize indoor temperatures year-round. This reduces your reliance on heating and cooling systems, lowering energy costs while making your space more environmentally friendly. Some fabrics even include thermal or reflective properties, boosting their efficiency even further.
Applications for Extra Wide Roller Shades
Thanks to their versatility, extra wide roller shades are a great fit in a variety of spaces, including:
- Living Rooms: Large windows or glass walls are common in open-concept living areas. Roller shades maintain the airy feel of these spaces while offering adjustable light control.
- Bedrooms: Opt for blackout fabrics to create a cozy retreat where you can rest peacefully, even in the daytime.
- Office and Commercial Spaces: In offices, roller shades reduce glare on screens and provide a professional, polished appearance.
- Sliding Glass Doors: Extra wide roller shades are a great option for covering sliding doors, allowing easy access while offering privacy when needed.
- Sunrooms and Patios: Protect furniture and flooring from harmful UV rays with UV-blocking roller shades.
Customization Options
One of the biggest advantages of roller shades is their wide range of customization options.
- Fabric and Material Choices
Choose from a variety of fabrics to complement your space, including fabrics that are UV-blocking, light-filtering, or block light completely. - Control Mechanisms
- Motorized Shades: Enjoy the convenience of adjusting your shades with the push of a button– or even a smartphone app.
