Operating Systems and Configurations for Window Dressings
by Cover Your Windows
Cover Your Windows can configure window dressings and treatments for any scenario using a variety of configurations and Hunter Douglas Operating Systems. Here’s the low-down, the lingo and examples of each.
A Deux Shadings
Bi-Fold Track
Allows up to six panels to be hinged together. Panels are connected to a top track, which supports the panels and guides their folding movements.
Bypass Track
Shutters slide on top tracks to open and close. Multiple tracks allow the panels to slide past each other.
Combination Wand-Cord
Single control traverses the sheer and rotates the vanes.
Continuous Cord Loop
Loop and clutch system to raise and lower larger window coverings. Cord loop system to traverse window coverings open and closed.
Cordlock
Original lifting system with quiet and reliable operation.
Dual Roller Application
Duolite
Two fabric panels are used—one between the top rail and center rail and one between the center rail and bottom rail. Each panel has its own set of lift cords so either fabric panel, or portion of a fabric panel, may be used to cover a window.
EasyRise
Continuous cord loop and clutch system to easily raise or lower larger shades.
