Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades
What are roller shades?
Roller Shades are engineered with a single panel of performance fabric that rolls smoothly onto a precision tube when raised. They offer a clean architectural profile and controlled daylight. Unlike basic off-the-shelf roller shades, this system is designed for consistent alignment, even fabric tracking, minimal light gaps, and long-term durability.

Frequently asked questions about roller shades
How many fabric options can I choose from?
Hunter Douglas roller shades are available in hundreds of fabric options, carefully curated for performance and aesthetics. Choose from sheer, light-filtering, solar screen, and room-darkening fabrics.
What are solar screen fabrics?
Solar screen fabrics help manage incoming sunlight and protect against harmful UV rays while preserving view-through. Solar fabrics are rated by openness percentage, which determines how much light passes through. For example, 1% openness offers maximum glare reduction and privacy, while 10% openness provides greater outward visibility.
What if I want both light filter and room darkening fabrics?
For homeowners who want both daytime filtering and nighttime darkness, a dual roller system is available. The light filtering or solar shade sits in front, while the room-darkening shade sits behind, allowing a seamless transition between daylight control and privacy without installing separate treatments.
