Choosing the right fabric for your window will ensure that your light and privacy concerns will be satisfied. We have grouped the fabrics for the Brilliance pleated shades according to light and privacy control features.
Semi-Sheer Fabrics (Allow soft, diffused light in for moderate privacy. Depending upon the style and colour, light and dark areas may be visible through semi-sheer shades, but detailed features will be obscured. Dark coloured fabrics provide greater privacy and room darkening, while light colours filter and soften harsh sunlight.)

Care and Maintenance
Care and Cleaning
Since Hunter Douglas Pleated Shades are anti-static and naturally repel dust, an occasional vacuuming or dusting is all the care required. A selection of pleated shade fabrics are treated with Scotchgardฎ, a fabric protector that helps shades look new longer and resists stains.
Scotchgardฎ is a registered trademark of 3M
Child Safety
An important consideration in any shade installation is child safety. To prevent serious injuries or strangulation, all cords must be kept out of the reach of children, including infants. All cord-operated Hunter Douglas pleated shades come with a Child Safety Kit that includes two cord cleats, mounting screws, and instructions for use.
The cleats should be attached 6" to 12" apart at a safe height, taking into account furniture or other objects upon which a child may climb. Then, after each use of the shade, simply wrap the excess cord around the cleats. It's fast, easy, and safe.
In addition to cord cleats, there are three other basic ways to keep cords out of a child's reach:
- Cord Clip. Clip the cord to itself using a clip or other clamping device.
- Tie. Wrap or tie the cord to itself.
- Cord Tensioner. Designed for continuous cord loops, it holds the loop taut and secure. This is an excellent alternative method for Easy Glide ฎ shades.
