Where It Fits In East Peoria
Where Roller Shades Fit In East Peoria
East Peoria runs from the river bottom up onto the bluffs, and the homes in between go from houses built before 1940 to builds from the last twenty five years.
- Views From The BluffsOn the bluff streets near Fondulac Drive, the big windows are the ones facing the river valley and the Peoria skyline. A 10% screen takes the glare down and keeps that view crisp all day.
- Home Offices And MonitorsWhen the afternoon sun washes out a computer screen, a 3 to 5 percent screen fabric takes the glare off the monitor and still keeps the room bright for the workday.
- Sliding Doors To The DeckMagnetic hold downs keep the bottom rail in place when the door opens and closes, and a Cordless Lift or PowerWand keeps chains away from kids and pets.
- Bedrooms That Need To Be DarkBlackout fabric with side and bottom channels is how a roller shade gets a bedroom truly dark, because a flat panel leaves light gaps down the sides on its own.
Choosing Your Fabric
Keep the river view during the day, and your privacy after dark
A Roller Shade is the simplest way we know to cover a view window. Raised, it rolls up into a three inch roll at the top of the window and the whole view is yours again. Lowered, the fabric you pick decides how much of the valley you still see, how much of the afternoon sun stays off your floors, and how much privacy you have.
Openness, the share of the weave left open, decides how the shade behaves. The more open the screen, the clearer your view of the valley, and the tighter the weave, the more heat, glare and daytime privacy you get. Beyond screens, there are decorative and light filtering fabrics that give full privacy day and night, and blackout fabrics with no openness at all.

Straight Answers
Roller Shades questions from East Peoria homeowners
Yes. Through a 10% screen the valley stays sharp during the day, and a 5% screen softens it a little while taking more glare off the room. Your Design Specialist will hold both against your window so you can compare them with your own view before you decide.
No. At night, with lamps on in the room, a screen fabric lets people outside see in. For bedrooms and rooms that face the street, we recommend a light filtering or blackout fabric, or two shades on one bracket, a screen and a blackout together, so you get the daytime view and full privacy at night.
Yes. A roller shade is a clean choice for a sliding glass door, and magnetic hold downs keep the bottom rail from swinging when the door is used. French doors and doors with deep casings need a closer look, because the roller tube has to clear the swing of the door, and your Design Specialist checks that on site.
Yes. Our office is at 717 Sabrina Dr in East Peoria, and our team has been serving homeowners across the Peoria area since 2006. Your consultation happens in your own home, where your Design Specialist brings the fabric samples, measures every window, and gives you an exact quote on the spot.
Yes. The fabric carries a lifetime warranty, and our Carefree Guarantee sits on top of it, with Five Year Service on any defect and Lifetime Product coverage on materials and workmanship for as long as you own the home. Fading from years of direct sun is normal wear rather than a defect, and we'll tell you that up front.
Yes, the fabric is one part of it. The size of the window, the operating system, and any cassette or fascia at the top all change the price too. Your Design Specialist prices every window in your home on the spot, and the exact, itemized quote holds for 180 days.
