An Open View or Full Privacy, From One Shade

Here is what layered shades, also called zebra or transitional shades, do for a Lancaster window: alternating bands of sheer and solid fabric slide past each other. Line up the sheer bands for a soft, open view, or shift to the solid bands for privacy and light control, all from one modern shade.

It is the flexibility of a sheer shade and a roller shade in one piece, with a crisp, contemporary look. Great for rooms where your needs change through the day, a bright kitchen or a living room facing the street. Available cordless and motorized, in a range of band colors. We show you the effect in your own light and install each one right.

Frequently Asked Questions About Layered Shades in Lancaster

How do layered or zebra shades work?

Layered shades have alternating sheer and solid fabric bands on a single roller. When the sheer bands line up you get a soft, open view; shift the shade and the solid bands line up for privacy and light control, all from one shade.

We show you the effect in your own light so it is easy to picture.

Are layered shades good for daytime privacy?

Yes. Shift to the solid bands for daytime privacy while still softening the light. At night, when inside lights are on, privacy is limited, so for bedrooms we may add a liner or a second treatment.

Do layered shades help with the Lancaster sun?

They soften and diffuse bright summer daylight when the sheer bands are open, and cut more light on the solid bands. For heavy UV and heat control, solar shades remain the stronger pick.

Can layered shades be motorized?

Yes. Layered shades offer cordless operation and motorization, so you can adjust the bands by app or voice. We set it up during installation.
