What they are
Soft light and a view for Van Buren Township living rooms
A window shading holds soft fabric vanes between two sheer panels. Tilt the vanes open and daylight comes through as a gentle glow while you still see outside. Tilt them closed for privacy, or raise the shading and it rolls neatly up into the headrail.
That mix of light, view and privacy fits a lot of Van Buren Township rooms. In a home on Belleville Lake, shadings take the edge off sun reflecting from the water while keeping the lake in view. In a subdivision living room that faces the street or looks straight into the neighbor’s side windows, partly closed vanes keep the room bright without putting it on display. Tall great-room windows get softened light instead of harsh afternoon glare.
As a Hunter Douglas authorized dealer, we carry Silhouette® window shadings in a range of fabrics, colors and vane sizes, and PowerView® motorization is available for windows that are hard to reach.

Living & great rooms
Soft, glowing light without losing the outdoor view.

Light control, privacy and protection
What window shadings do for a room.
Diffused daylight
Sheer layers soften harsh sun into an even glow.
Privacy with a view
Tilt the vanes partly closed for privacy while still seeing out.
UV protection
Fabric layers help protect furnishings from fading.
Motorized option
PowerView® lets you control shadings by remote, app or schedule.
Operating options & care
Manual or motorized, with gentle care
Window shadings can be operated manually, with a control that raises the shading and tilts the vanes, or motorized with Hunter Douglas PowerView®. Motorization is especially useful on tall or wide windows and lets you set schedules that open shadings in the morning and close them at night. We install and program motorized shadings for you.
Because shadings are made of delicate fabrics, care is gentle: dust lightly with a feather duster or a vacuum on low with a brush attachment, and follow the Hunter Douglas care instructions for spot cleaning.

Window shading questions
Common questions from Van Buren homeowners about window shadings.
Are shadings a good fit for windows facing Belleville Lake?
They are a popular choice. The sheer layers soften glare off the water, and the vanes tilt to block more sun when you need it, while you still see out. We’ll show you fabrics at your windows.
Can Silhouette® shadings be motorized for a two-story great room?
Yes. With PowerView®, Silhouette® shadings can run from a remote, an app or a schedule, which is ideal for the tall windows in many Van Buren Township subdivision homes.
What is the difference between window shadings and blinds?
Both have vanes that tilt, but shadings use soft fabric vanes between two sheer layers, so light is diffused and the look is much softer. Shadings also roll up instead of stacking.
Do shadings give privacy at night?
With the vanes closed, shadings give privacy. Ask about room-darkening versions for bedrooms.
How do I clean window shadings?
Dust lightly with a feather duster or a vacuum on low with a brush attachment, and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for spot cleaning.
