If you've been dreaming of cordless Roman shades but weren't sure what options were available, we have you covered! At Rico's Window Coverings & Films, we've been helping Sacramento-area homeowners discover the perfect blend of safety, convenience, and style since 1958.
Today's cordless Roman shades offer more possibilities than ever before: whether you're concerned about child safety, looking for easier operation, or want that clean, uncluttered look that cordless window treatments provide, we have solutions that will transform how you think about Roman shades.
Manual Cordless Operating Systems
- LiteRise® System: The LiteRise® system is our most popular choice for cordless Roman shades. This innovative mechanism allows you to operate your shades with a simple push-up or pull-down motion—no cords, no fuss.
- UltraGlide® System: For larger Roman shades or windows that are harder to reach, the UltraGlide® system offers smooth, effortless operation. With this system, you can use the UltraGlide® wand to move your Vignette® Roman Shades easily and reach those on tall windows.
- Top-Down/Bottom-Up Options: Many of our clients love this versatile option that lets you open your cordless Roman shades from either direction. Perfect for maintaining privacy while still allowing natural light to enter your space!
Motorized and Automated Solutions
Here's where things get really exciting: Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation represents the ultimate in motorized shades technology. These automated shades can be controlled through your smartphone, tablet, or the elegant Pebble® Remote. Imagine adjusting your Roman shades from anywhere in your home—or even when you're away!
