Shutter Blinds – Pella's Cordless Under-Glass Fashions Enhance Home Safety

Pella Corporation’s Designer Series® windows and patio doors, which feature fashionable window blinds or shades protected between panes of glass, are now more convenient than ever.

Pella’s new revolutionary cordless solution, is now available exclusively on its Designer Series products — pleated shades and Slimshade® blinds that can be raised and lowered, opened and closed with the simple turn of a knob or the push of a button.

Pella’s manual alternative to unsightly cords is a single, sleek, stylish, low-profile knob that raises and lowers the shades, as well as tilts the blinds for the ultimate in privacy and environment control. A second, automated option developed by Techniku, Inc., a specialty remote-controlled window treatment manufacturer, enables consumers to operate Pella’s tilt-only Slimshade blinds with the touch of a remote controlled button.

Ease of use, convenience, and safety are among the life improvement benefits of the new cordless and cordless remote options, noted by Sherri Gillette, Pella Designer brand manager. Homeowners, as well as individuals in commercial settings, benefit from the new under glass cordless window fashions.

“Pella’s latest exclusive Designer Series between-the-glass offering is easier to operate and ultimately to live with than typical corded window fashions — providing a total window solution for a variety of needs,” Gillette said. “Individuals with children or pets, or people with limited mobility will find these new options especially appealing.”

Cordless under glass window fashions are potentially safer than standard models, since the absence of a cord represents one less temptation for children and/or pets to play with or chew. And, since the shades and blinds are between two panes of glass, they are protected from little hands, paws and dust.

“The remote control option can operate more than one mini-blind, which can save valuable time in commercial settings such as assisted living centers, restaurants, schools and hospitals, and in hard-to reach areas in homes or offices,” Gillette added.

Consumers also can expect enhanced energy efficiency and comfort from Pella’s Designer Series window and door offering. The Designer Series product line features Pella’s patented SmartSash® glazing technology — argon-filled, Low-E (low emissivity) insulating glass that works to reduce heat transfer and block ultraviolet (UV) rays as well as reduce outside noise by as much as 80 percent, compared with non-insulated glass.

With its new Designer Series cordless offering, Pella also is leading the way in design flexibility by allowing consumers to change their under glass window fashions as their décor changes. Available in all markets served by Pella® Window & Door Stores, Pella’s new cordless window fashions are available in a variety of new fabric colors and textures.
