Zebra Shades are also known as Dual Shades because they come in two layers of fabric. They are very modern alternative window treatments to traditional blinds. That is why you see them everywhere now! You can adjust stripes to transition between sheer and privacy. The blinds can be adjusted so that the zebra stripes line up-offering privacy, light control, and insulation. Using various control options such as cordless, wand control, and motorized solutions that we offer at TheBlind Window Fashions, you can adjust the blinds slightly to allow incoming daylight. In addition, zebra shades come in various filtering (e.g., room darkening and light filtering), color and design options.
At TheBlind Window Fashions, we understand that every space is unique, and our Zebra Blinds reflect this understanding. From selecting the right style and material to customizing top valances (cassette) and control options , we tailor our solutions to align with your preferences and the overall design theme of your home or business. We offer free in person or online consultation to discuss the best options for your style and to take the measurements of your window to provide you with an estimate right on the spot.
Based on consultation experience with more than thousands of customers, here are responses to some frequently asked questions that we get from customers about Zebra shades:
Why are (dual) zebra shades so popular?
Zebra blinds are so popular because they blend very seamlessly with various decor styles in your house. Also, it is very easy to maintain zebra blinds as they do not collect dust as much as traditional blinds like wood blinds and shutters.
Are Zebra shades a real blackout solution for bedrooms?
The answer really depends how much light you want to block in your bedrooms. Zebra shades can only be room darkening by nature because even room darkening fabrics will bring some lights in between layers. Overall, they are great in blocking 70% to 80% sunlight.
What are some popular applications for zebra shades/blinds?
Zebra shades are a great addition to any residential and commercial place. They offer stylish aesthetics to any space. Zebra shades can be installed in living room areas, dining rooms, bathrooms, and basements. They also provide great functionality to any commercial space to play between sheer and privacy.
Can Zebra Shades be automated/motorized?
Yes, Zebra shades can be automated with battery-powered or low voltage electric integral tubular motors. Battery-powered motors can last between 6 to 8 months if the motor is being used on a regular daily basis. We also have solar panel options that you do not even have to worry about charging the shade. It will charge itself year round.
