Window Fashions Functions

Architella Honeycomb Shades
Duette® Architella® Honeycomb Shades

When our customers begin to look for new window treatments, they usually have a couple of functional aspects that are most important to them—they might have light control, energy efficiency, or child and pet safety in mind. At Windows to the World serving Northeastern Pennsylvania, many of our clients are interested in the levels of privacy they could achieve at certain windows. If privacy is your main goal, read on to learn more about how to reach the level you desire, and contact one of our representatives for more information.

The Privacy Level That’s Right for You

Not all window treatments offer the same level of privacy or options, so you need to understand the differences. Start by answering these questions:

  •  In what room or rooms are you planning to hang your window treatments? Will it face a street, a backyard? Is it a bedroom or a kitchen?
  • Where do you live? Are you in a secluded area or a crowded high-rise community?
  • What’s your goal in covering the windows? Do you want to block light or just filter it? Or both? Are you looking to insulate at the window?
  • When the treatment is closed, do you want to maintain the view? Are you looking for total blackout for a bedroom?

Semi-Private

Semi-opaque honeycomb shades or woven woods may just be what you are looking for. They help maintain light levels while ensuring that people can’t see in, such as at the front of a house. Wood blinds or screen shades may be great for the back of the house where view is more important but you also want to control the light coming in.

Completely Private

If you want total privacy, there is no better window treatment on the market today than honeycomb blackout shades. Woven woods or Roman shades with a fabric liner would be another good option. If you want to tilt open, consider wood blinds with de-Light™ feature, which eliminates the rout holes, or custom shutters.
