Top-Down/Bottom-Up

For The Ultimate In Privacy And Light Control

The Top-Down/Bottom-Up system offers a highly flexible way to manage both sunlight and seclusion. This feature allows you to lower the upper portion of the shade to invite natural light into the room while keeping the bottom closed for privacy. Alternatively, you can raise the shade from the base just like a standard window treatment, giving you the best of both worlds.

Flexibility

While standard shades are restricted to upward movement, the Top-Down/Bottom-Up design provides the versatility to place your window treatments at any height. By lowering the top section, you can illuminate your space with natural light while ensuring the lower half remains closed for privacy.

This adaptable functionality is perfect for mitigating glare and managing visibility as the sun moves throughout the day. It is an ideal choice for street-level windows, bathrooms, or any area where you want to enjoy the view of the sky without exposing your interior.

Convenient
Adjustability

Open your shades from the top, the bottom, or anywhere in between for a setup that suits your space and lifestyle.

Custom
Privacy

Maintain privacy while still enjoying natural light by lowering the top of your shades and covering the lower portion.

Better Energy Efficiency

Position your shades to block direct sunlight when it’s hot or let light in for warmth during cooler months, helping regulate temperature naturally.

Added
Security

Adjust your shades to different positions throughout the day to make your home look occupied even when you’re not there.

Precise Light Management

Control glare, protect furniture from fading, and set the mood by adjusting light exactly where and when you need it.

UV Protection

Even when the sky is overcast, invisible UV rays can filter through glass, causing your floors, furniture, and precious artwork to lose their vibrancy over time. Top-Down/Bottom-Up shades provide a proactive way to defend your home by allowing you to block direct, harsh sunlight while still inviting a gentle wash of natural light from the top of the window.

This unique positioning ensures your interior remains protected from sun damage without forcing you to live in a dark room. Regardless of the weather, these shades offer the versatility to enjoy the sun on your own terms while maintaining the integrity and lifespan of your home’s decor.

Smart Control with PowerView^® Automation

Integrating the Top-Down/Bottom-Up design with PowerView® Automation provides seamless control over your window treatments from any location. Whether you prefer using the PowerView app, simple voice commands, or the elegant Pebble® remote, you can transition your shades to the exact position you need.

For a truly hands-off experience, you can program custom schedules to have your shades lower from the top at sunrise for a soft morning glow, then automatically close for complete privacy at dusk. By merging this versatile shade positioning with intelligent technology, you can effortlessly maintain the perfect balance of light and seclusion in every room of your home.
