Our Designer Shades fabric collection is filled with decorative patterns, colours, and textures in a variety of transparencies and blackout options. From bold prints to soft and natural tones, these fabrics are designed with looks in mind but offer UV blocking and glare-reducing features.

Decorative: Ontario Blinds offers several solar screen fabrics with natural rustic weaves and earth tones for a functional yet decorative appearance.

Blackout: these fabrics prevent any light from passing through the fabric. Blackout shades are ideal for presentation rooms, bedrooms or any other space where total light blockage is ideal. For the ultimate blackout experience, consider our light blocking side channels. Our aluminum side channels install between the fabric and the window frame to block all light from passing through.

All of our Designer and Solar shades are offered with a range of top-treatment options including a variety of aluminum cassettes, fascias or fabric valances to suit any decor style. 

     

The vanes can be rotated, permitting a veiled view of the outdoors and a soft flow of light indoors. Even when open, you have privacy as the sheer fabric diffuses direct views from outside of your home. The layers of fabric in this design allow for a level of privacy at all times, which make them a great option for high-traffic rooms in your home where you still want the option of natural light. When closed fully, 

    

Highlite Shades become completely opaque, creating total privacy and security. Sheer Horizontal Shades also help to block out harmful UV rays and harsh glare from the sun without having to completely block your view of the outdoors. Elite Sheer Horizontal Shades can be ordered in 2” or 3” vane sizes in either light filtering or room darkening fabrics.

Highlite Shades are also available with our unique DoorStyles option, which secures the fabric in a stationary position with tilt-only capability. There is no cassette box on top or hanging cords and is a perfect way to dress up side lights, transoms or French Doors.

Cellular shades are particularly energy efficient. A honeycomb design creates an air pocket between the window glass and the interior of your room. This extra layer of insulation keeps heat and cold from penetrating windows, conserving energy year-round.

Cellular Shade fabrics are constructed of unique honeycomb-shaped air pockets that run the length of the shade. These pockets are designed with cost savings in mind by offering the best energy savings and most superior insulation for any window covering. The cells trap cold air in the winter and warm air in the summer, lowering your energy bills over time. The pockets also feature “D” shaped cells that keep the pleats crisp and prevent them from sagging over time, maintaining their appearance and function for years to come.
