Product Feature: Pleated Shades by Hunter Douglas

With versatility, functionality, and style, pleated shades are a popular window shade here in the Dallas area. Pleated shades are made with a single layer of fabric that is pleated horizontally to fold up neatly when raised. Pleated shades are made on a loom using woven fabrics, giving them a unique look reminiscent of a homemade shade.

Lifting Systems for Pleated Shades

The standard lifting system for pleated shades is the child-safe cord-lock system. For larger shades, choose the continuous cord loop lifting system. Or, eliminate cords altogether with the LiteRise touch system. Motorize your pleated shades with a variety of automated options, including PowerRise with Platinum Technology. Top-down/Bottom-up shades, and Privacy/View shades are available with any of the pleated shade lifting systems.
