Sheer Shadings
Sheer Shadings are the innovative fusion of light filtering fabric with the functionality of blinds resulting in one of the most elegant
lighting effects in the window coverings industry. Sheer Shadings are constructed of horizontal fabric vanes suspended between two vertical layers of soft, knitted fabric sheers which adjust to open and close the horizontal vanes. No other window covering matches
the range of light presented by Sheer Shadings.

Opacity options are light filtering and room darkening. Light filtering fabrics softly diffuse and control natural light and glare entering a room. The horizontal vanes feature the traditional functionality of blinds without the obstructions of cords and tape. Room darkening fabrics block natural light entering a room when vanes are closed. They are perfect for bedrooms and bathrooms where more light control and privacy is desired.

Horizontal Sheer Shading
Sheer Shadings provide a number of varied views to the outside for controlling light and privacy. Consequently, there are variations in visibility through the shades when the vanes are tilted to their maximum open positions. The following four modes can be obtained with standard shading operation when viewing the shading at eye level.
Viewing options
-
Closed top, open bottom – by partially lowering the shade from the fully raised position, the upper portion of your window will become semi-opaque while allowing a clear view below.
-
Fully private – when lowered completely, the shade provides complete privacy and softly diffuses light.
-
Partially open – opening the shade slightly will gradually increase the level of light and allow varying levels of “view-through.”
-
View-through when lowered – by completely opening the vanes, the shade provides a softened, veiled view to the outside.
Fabric Collections
Horizontal Sheer shades are available with three different fabric vane sizes: 2”, 2 ½” and 3”. Light filtering fabric gently filters light while room darkening casts deep room darkening shadows. Please note that room darkening is not a blackout fabric.

Motorized Sheer Shades by Automate
Sheer shades preserve the look of a shade and provide privacy when closed yet tilt to offer precise light control, like a traditional blind. Though contrary to blinds, sheers shades feature transparent fabric between the opaque strips to soften light, reduce glare and minimize UV rays from entering your home.
