Drapery Panels
Full length drapery panels add insulation, texture, color and dimension. The variety of styles available is defined mainly by the type of header the panel has. Drapery layers beautifully over sheer shades or roller and Roman shades, and we keep existing panels fresh with on-site drapery cleaning.
Header Types
The header is the top of the drapery panel and the way in which the fabric is gathered for fullness. The header can be pleated, shirred, tabbed or grommeted.
Pleat Types
Pleat types include pinch pleats, goblet pleats, french pleats and inverted pleats. Pleats add formality to the drapery because it gathers the fabric uniformly across the width of the panel.
Ripplefold Drapery System
Soft ripple-like folds flow smoothly from one end of the track to the other. The system features master carriers that eliminate flat areas — folds are identically beautiful from inside the room or outside the building, presenting an architectural advantage.
Formal & Casual Styles
Fabrics such as damask, silk and tapestry create a formal feel. These are typically lined and sometimes interlined to add weight and protection to the fabrics.
Tabbed or shirred panels have a soft fullness with less uniformity than pleated panels. Grommet panels also provide a modern trend in less formal styling. Panels can be suspended via various methods including shirred on a rod or hung from drapery pins that attach to the rod or rings on the rod.
