Roller Shades: What to Know Before You Buy
Imagine a college student living in a room in an apartment—small, bright, and right next to a busy street. During the day, sunlight pours in beautifully, but at night the room feels like a glowing display for anyone passing by. One simple change makes the space feel private, calm, and much more livable: installing roller shades.
If you’re looking for stylish, practical window coverings that create comfort in an instant, roller shades may be exactly what your Tulsa home needs. At More Decor Design, Inc., located in beautiful Tulsa, we love serving homeowners throughout Tulsa and the surrounding areas—and we’re here to help you choose shades that work beautifully for your home and your lifestyle.
What Are Roller Shades?
Roller shades are a single piece of fabric that rolls neatly into a tube when lifted and lowers smoothly when pulled down. Their minimal design, countless fabric options, and ease of use make them one of the most versatile window treatments available.
Why homeowners choose them:
- Clean, modern appearance
- Easy everyday operation
- Works with many design styles
- Fits windows of nearly any size
Choose the Light Control You Need
Roller shades let you decide exactly how much light enters your home.
Options include:
- Sheer: Lets in soft natural light; minimal privacy
- Light-filtering: Brightens rooms while reducing glare
- Room-darkening: Heightens privacy and reduces brightness
- Blackout: Ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms
Many Tulsa homeowners choose double roller shades—a sheer layer for daytime and a blackout layer for nighttime privacy.
Simple Cleaning and Low Maintenance
Roller shades are refreshingly easy to care for compared to heavy curtains.
To clean:
- Roll out the shade
- Wipe gently with a soft cloth and mild cleaner
- Dry and rehang
No ironing, no dry-cleaning, and far less effort.
Installation Options That Fit Your Home
Roller shades can be mounted in different ways depending on your style and privacy needs:
- Inside mount: Clean, built-in look; minor light gaps
- Outside mount: Greater privacy and better light control
- Ceiling mount: Ideal for tall windows and modern spaces
We help you choose the mounting style that enhances your home’s comfort and appearance.
Are Roller Shades Right for You?
Roller shades offer something few other window treatments can: the ability to fully disappear when raised, giving you a clear, open view. Lower them, and they blend seamlessly into your décor. They’re modern, practical, and available in endless colors and textures.
Cordless and motorized options also make them a safe choice for homes with children or pets.
