The Versatile Coverage of Dual Shades
For an innovative window treatment solution that offers both flexible coverage, as well as versatile style, consider our dual shade options that let you maneuver different pieces or combine different types of shades for the ultimate in light control and privacy.
Finding the perfect balance of sunlight, privacy, and protection for the changing needs throughout the day can feel harder than it seems. We have several solutions that make it easy to find the perfect balance.
Bottom Up/Top Down
Most Bali window treatments offer a bottom up/top down control type. When you’re able to adjust your blind or shade from both the bottom and the top, you can give your window some of the most versatile coverage available.
Some window treatments are also available in a top-down only control type, which can be an obvious choice for bathrooms.
Café & Double-Hung Shutters
Bali Premium Shutters in wood and composite come in two styles that offer versatile window coverage. Café shutters cover the lower half of a window, popularized by the style of cafés in Paris. Double-hung shutters can be opened on the top and the bottom, so you can open them up fully like a traditional shutter or one half at a time.
Sun Up/Sun Down Shades
Choose a sun up/sun down shade when you want to pair two cellular shades or two pleated shades together.
Combination Shades
Choose a combination shade when you want to pair a cellular shade with a pleated shade. This is also a fun way to create your own unique look. The cellular shade is on the bottom, and the pleated shade is on top.
Dual Shades
Pick a dual shade when you want to combine solar and roller shades. Solar shades don’t offer nighttime privacy, so a dual shade combining a solar shade with a blackout roller shade is a perfect way to get that privacy when the sun goes down. A sheer roller shade paired with a blackout roller shade is another great combo for daytime style and nighttime privacy.
