Add-ons to Your Hunter Douglas Roller Shades
Our most popular roller shades are Hunter Douglas Designer Roller Shades. The standard roller shade has fabric covering the roll at the top of the shade and the bar at the bottom. Here are a few options to add decorative elements to those areas of your shades:
- Select a faux wood slat in place of the standard bottom bar, available in nine color choices.
- For a clean, sleek look, choose the fabric-wrapped Cassette system to conceal the fabric roll at the top of the shade.
- Add 2” designer tape trim for the bottom of your shade to accentuate colors and textures. Placed at the bottom of the shade, the tape trim replaces the bottom bar of the shade.
- Instead of standard hem at the bottom of your shade, you can add decorative hems. Decorative hems are best for kitchens and living areas as their specialized shapes can sometimes leave gaps where light can get in.
