We at Payless Decor are convinced our Standard Vertical Blinds have just what it takes to combine both style and practicality (not to forget economical) that make them so special in our eyes.

For a start, vertical blinds are extremely versatile so you will never be stuck for possibilities. Don't think of vertical blinds as merely a solution for your patio door. Their neat streamlined appearance is especially well-suited for narrower windows or doorways because of their height-conscious design. Vertical window blinds can be used as a sophisticated substitute for draperies in any room of the home or office. One of the major benefits of blinds such as these is that they can be set to face in a certain direction, from fully open to entirely closed.  You may find this is especially useful in extreme outdoor conditions; such as bright sunlight or darkness. Moving your blinds to filter out just the right amount of light will lead to a perfect home setting.

Our Standard Vertical Blinds come in five basic colors that will surely complement your current decor and are custom made to your specifications. Tracks can be configured for a one-way draw, split draw, center stack, or opposite stack to suit personal preference; the direct drive control unit with large sprocket wheel provides a smooth and responsive operation. You can also purchase a single or double valance to complete the look for your window. So with our Standard Vertical Blinds, you have an almost unlimited flexibility in designing your room.

Sincerely,

Cherri

2” Distressed Wood Blinds

“Distressed” finishes are the modern decorator’s exciting feature for rustic, country and cottage-style decorating schemes where a mix of vintage and even some modern furnishings are coordinated.  Ideal applications include study/library, den, formal living rooms, formal dining rooms, and any room looking for the rich stain combined with the warmth and beauty of real wood.  For example, Whitewash makes for a great shabby chic look at the beach house, while Rosewood or Warm Cherry gives your home office an aura of rich distinction.

Our 2" Distressed Wood Blinds have existing nicks and scratches as well as color variations that are the “look” of this unique window treatment.  Each basswood slat has been distressed to offer an antiqued appearance to the wood blinds. These rustic basswood blinds are custom-crafted, durable and warp resistant.

For an authentic look, the distressed finish is continued on a matching wood valance and bottom rail. Every blind comes with a cord or wand tilt control.

Wood tones offered in the distressed style include Ebony, Whitewash, Warm Cherry, Rosewood, Dark Oak and Chestnut.  Decorative tapes are also available in black, ebony, bone, mocha, silk and mulberry.

Because of the varied finish, we recommend that you order a free sample for the best color match. A discount coupon that provides a 40 percent reduction off the regular price accompanies each sample.

“GO GREEN WITH BAMBOO!”

Did you know that by choosing our Bamboo Roman Shades you are effortlessly "going green"? Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on the planet. Some bamboo plants have grown to over 4 feet in 24 hours! A pole of bamboo can regenerate to its full mass in just six months. Bamboo can be continuously re-harvested every 3 years without damaging its eco-system and surrounding environment. During the time it takes to regenerate, the bamboo plant's root system stays intact preventing erosion. Continuous harvesting of this woody grass every 3-7 years actually improves the overall health of the plant.

Bamboo Roman Shades are versatile in terms of installation. They can be installed inside or outside the window frame depending on your preference. They also come in a variety of custom sizes to fit virtually any window. Rich and vibrant, Bamboo Roman Shades add a rustic elegance to any room.

Bamboo Roman Shades are different from other types of window coverings in that they stack and fold (roman style) into even sized panels when the shade is lifted. When lowered, they create a relatively smooth appearance. Bamboo Roman Shades are raised and lowered with a cord system. The cord can be pulled until the roman shades reaches the desired height, allowing portions of the window to be exposed while blocking out other areas. If you are worried about the kiddies playing near the shade, no need to fret. We include retro-fit kits with select bamboo shades making them cordless.

Durable, beautiful, and environmentally friendly are just a few words used to describe our Bamboo Roman Shades. So choose one of our custom bamboo shades today; the planet will thank you and you'll love the results in your home!

How To Troubleshooting Wood Blinds

1. Face the front of the blind toward you. Look for the pull cord mechanism located on the right side of the blind.

  2. The back of the pull cord mechanism should be in the center of the hole.

  3. Once it is centered, check the cord mechanism from the top of the headrail. Make sure the cord mechanism is secured tight to the headrail.

  4. Check to see if the small hardware piece (circled below) is locked in place. It should be at the bottom of the cord mechanism.

5. This is the correct position it should be in.

Although our bamboo shades are made to last a very long time without any repairs, sometimes things can happen and it may become necessary to restring one of your shades. If you should find your shade’s cord has broken, give us a call and one of our friendly Customer Support Specialists can assist you in obtaining some brand new cords. When you receive these here are a few simple steps that you can follow to put your window treatment back in working order:

Traditional Cords:

Check out this quick silent video to watch one of our experts:

1. Cut your cords the correct length. The correct length is the sum of three measurements. a) On the back of the shade the height from the bottom cord ring to the headrail, b) The measurement from the headrail to the middle of the shade (1/2 way), and c) the measurement in width from the cord track to the cord lock. Please note that for each column this measurement will be different. For example if your shade is 50" wide, there will be one column close to your cord lock and one or more columns farther from your cord locks.

2. Start with the longest cord at the front of your shade and pull your cord through the cord lock mechanism starting at in the innermost track on the underside of the mechanism, through the midle of the two cord lock pieces and then out towards the next pulley to the left or right of the cord mechanism. You will go through each pulley horizontally until you get to the last pulley (There may be one or two pulleys depending on the size of your shade).

Continuous Cord Loop:

1. The cords must be tied at the rod and secured under the clip. The knot will hold the cords in place.
2. The cord then goes into the clip on the bottom of the plastic piece that holds the rod to the headrail. This way, the cord will be secured to the rod when it is rotated.
3. Next, the cords will go through the grommet to the back of the shade and continue down the guide rings on the back of the fabric.
4. The bottom of the cord then goes through the tassel and is tied off. Each of the knots can be re-adjusted to ensure the shade will raise evenly.

Make sure to take a look at your bamboo shade and its current cords prior to beginning this process. This will help you feel more familiar with the parts and assemblies so that these directions will make any restringing a snap.

Happy repairing,
