Eventy pleating Roman shade mechanism / Video
Janne Huhtala, Merja Huhtala
Category: Leisure and Utility Articles
Description
A new type of Roman shade mechanism is created using a pleat equaliser, fibreglass rods and lift cords. Fibreglass rods are threaded into channels sewn into the fabric at the pleats after which pleat equalisers, equipped with quick fasteners, are attached to the rods. The lift cords are passed through the pleat equalisers and attached to the lowermost pleat equaliser using a cord lock. The lock keeps the cord tightly in place without the use of knots. The pleat equalisers stop the pleats from bunching up close together, creating a beautiful and evenly pleated Roman shade with a voluminous and mock-pleated look. The quick fastening system makes the construction of the Roman shade easier and faster. It makes the shade easy to detach from the mechanism for washing or changing the fabric. Thus a new fabric can be attached to the same mechanism, making it unnecessary to purchase a new mechanism.
Field of UseSuitable for kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms, as well as doors with windows. The product replaces old Venetian and roller shades.Advantages- Easy to install and maintain.
- Low-cost solution.
- Speeds up the construction of the shade and makes it possible to reuse the mechanism.
- Old shades can be given a new look.
- The fabric’s pattern is shown off more dramatically and beautifully.
