Discount pleated shades are elegant yet affordable

Simply styled and beautifully functional discount pleated window shades are an elegant yet affordable window covering solution. A discount shade does not have  to be low in quality, just low in price. There are available diverse patterns and textures, all offered in an array of colors. Pleated shades combine fashion and functionality.

A discount pleated window shade is a single layer of fabric material that is pressed into crisp pleats where the end result is an accordian looking material when viewed from the end. The fabric is made of 100% polyester and has a scotchguard coating. It has a headrail at top that the fabric is secured to and it's also where the mounting brackets attach. The fabric is attached at the bottom to a color coordinated bottom rail which also adds weight to make for easy lifting and lowering. There are at least two lift cord strings (depending on width), they are threaded holes drilled in the fabric and they are used for raising and lowering the shade.

Discount pleated window shades are ideal at providing light filtering control to a room by adding a liner. Choose a light filtering liner if you want a higher degree of privacy than the fabric alone would provide, but still wish to allow light in. The blackout liner is ideal for bedrooms, media rooms and children’s rooms.
