Specialty Window Coverings

Specialty Window Coverings are treatments that do not really fit into one category or another. They are usually hybrids or combinations of other types of window coverings. An example of this is the Silhouette Shade that combines a horizontal style slat for privacy, sheer fabric for openness and a roller shade in that the covering can be rolled up around a tube. There are a myriad of these types of treatments from various manufacturers. Iris Window Coverings is a leader in the motorization and automation of these unique products and is pleased to be able to provide them from all of the major national vendors.
