Open and shut case for draperies.

There are numerous window covering options available on the market today, however drapery panels are still one of the most widely selected styles, chosen by consumers for their homes. There are a variety of reasons why draperies remain popular and are a smart choice in window treatments: 1) Insulation – Windows are where air enters or escapes a room. Drapes, especially lined drapes, offer by far the best insulation rating for both heat and cold of any window treatment. 2) Privacy – Drapery panels, when closed, allow complete privacy with no light gaps or visibility from the outside in.

3) Cleanability – Fabric drapery panels do not show the dust as much as other window treatments, often needing to be cleaned only once every few years. 4) Comfortable – Window treatments such as 2″ horizontal blinds, shutters or vertical blinds are considered hard window coverings. Drapery panels are soft, not made from a hard material, giving the room warmth and comfort. 5) Aesthetics – The fabric possibilities for drapery panels is limitless, the same can not be said of hard window treatments. 6) Longevity – A lined drape can last up to twenty years or longer! Undoubtedly, drapes are the long lasting window treatment. These six reasons are evidence as to why drapery panels remain popular. Drapes are an aesthetically pleasing window treatment that offers cost saving advantages as well as durability, making them a great choice for your window treatment.
