What are the Best Window Treatments for Tall Windows?

Tall windows add architectural interest and provide abundant sunlight and fantastic views, but some window treatments work better for taller windows than others. Advanced Window Fashions carries many options for dressing tall windows, and we’re excited to share them with you.

Custom Shades for Tall Windows

While traditional horizontal blinds may not be the best choice for tall windows because of their weight, fabric shades are an excellent option. Tall windows are notorious for being less energy efficient than smaller windows because they have more surface area for heat and cold to pass through. Duette® Cellular Shades offer superior insulation at the window, and their textured surface adds depth and visual interest to your tall windows.

Roman Shades are another of our favorites for tall windows. They’re an elegant choice, and Vignette® Roman Shades have a crisp, contemporary appearance. Choose from rolling and stacking styles with full or flat folds. Three opacities, including sheer, light-filtering, and room-darkening, allow you to use these shades in any room, and fabric selections from the exclusive Alustra® Collection elevate their aesthetic.

Choosing Vertical Blinds for Tall Windows

If you want to give your tall windows a chic, modern aesthetic, we suggest Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds. A unique alternative to traditional vertical blinds or shades, Skyline® Panel-Track blinds create a striking backdrop for your home when you close them. Available in over 450 color and fabric combinations, these window coverings stack tightly when open, allowing you to enjoy the best view your tall windows have to offer.

Another stunning option similar to vertical blinds is Luminette® Sheer Panels. They move like delicate drapery and have the precision light control of vertical blinds. The sheer vanes rotate 180° and gently diffuse sunlight while providing UV protection. The 3 ½” vanes are ideal for any interior style, and you can create custom accessories from any Luminette® Sheer Panels fabric with Accents by the Yard™.

PowerView® Automation for Tall Window Treatments

Opening and closing the coverings on tall windows can be challenging, especially if the windows are behind furniture. PowerView® Automation puts effortless control of even the tallest window treatments at your fingertips.

The award-winning Pebble® remote controls up to six sets of shades or blinds, and the PowerView® App allows you to set schedules for your window coverings to open and close automatically. The system is compatible with many of today’s smart home systems and voice-activated assistants.
