Selecting Patterns and OptionsCONTROLSSliding panels can be ordered One Way Draw [figure 1] or Center Opening (Split Draw) [figure 2]. One Way draw shades will stack back to either side of the opening.
Center Opening will stack back to both sides and will have an even number of panels. Center Opening shades will have two wands. The most important thing in deciding which style to choose is to check the area the panels will stack back to. If the customer only has one free area for the panels to stack to, they should choose a One Way draw. They should also make sure that the panels do not interfere or block access or light switches, when they are stacked back, as the stationary panel will not move. If the customer has room on both sides of the window, then Center Opening can be a better option as these can be made with more panels, which means the panels will be narrower. |
