DustGuard®DustGuard is an exclusive paint process that reduces dust build-up on blinds by over 50%. By "disrupting" the static on the blind's aluminum surface, DustGuard actually resists airborne dust particles. DustGuard is totally safe and permanent. Since it is an integral part of the surface, it lasts for the life of the blind. Enclosed Cushion BottomrailA color coordinated vinyl cushion covering the entire width of the blind protects the window sill from scratches and chips.

Not available with extension brackets.Integrated Valance/Valance Free DesignSculpted design reduces light leakage and creates a uniform and tailored appearance. Eliminates the need for an additional valance.
LightMasterPull-cord holes are positioned near the back of the slat to provide more light control. Multi-color StripingStriping allows you to add more color to the room decor as well as match geometric designs on walls. Identify color positions of slats with a sketch. Also, specify the color of components (consider "white" for ladder and cord for uniform appearance). Multiple Blinds on One HeadrailSpecialty blind allowing the customer to operate 2 or 3 independent shades on one headrail. Provides the flexibility of raising one blind while keeping the other lowered on extra wide windows, such as patio doors. Standard spacing is ½" between blinds.
Pivot PlatesLevolor pivot plates are specifically designed to be used with extruded aluminum mullion with pockets. Pivot plates eliminate the need to drill and screw into the aluminum mullion. Shown here is a typical mullion incorporating a slot on either side for the pivot plate. The headrail of the blind is installed into the recessed mullion cavity. Then, the plate is turned into place with a screwdriver. Pivot plates are custom sized based on customer mullion dimensions.
Pocket BracketsA typical pocket installation may require Levolor pocket brackets. The standard pocket bracket can be installed in two steps: the upper section is first secured in the top of the pocket; then, the flanges on the lower section are snapped over those on the upper section. This secures the headrail in place. The top of the pocket must be sturdy enough to support the weight of the blind and the pull forces applied to it.
Restrictive TilterThe Restrictive Tilter limits the range of angles the slat will tilt, ensures adequate window ventilation and reduces heat build-up. Maintains a uniform building exterior when using tiltone colors. See chart at right for available options. Not available with LightMaster.
SheerViewSheerView provides the ability to see through a closed blind and delivers up to a 42% reduction in solar heat as compared to a fully opened blind. SheerView is available in 5 colors, 6% openness. SheerView cannot be ordered with LightMaster option. Standard ValanceStandard valances are a simple and economical way to cover the headrail and brackets. Two slats are attached onto the headrail with plastic clips. TiltoneTiltone blinds allow you to bring one color to the interior of your room while providing a uniform, neutral appearance on the exterior of your home. Plus, Tiltone offers additional energy savings. Indicate which side of the slat and ladder is to be dover by marking the appropriate box on the order form. Unless otherwise specified, factory will place neutral white of ladder towards window side of blind and will match color of headrail and bottomrail to decor color on slat. Top-Lok® Cord Lock-Ring PullTop-Lok hold the blind in a completely raised or lowered position, thus ensuring a uniform building exterior. Also, when the blinds are fully raised there is no cord accumulation on the floor. Optional ring pulls are recommended when ordering To-Lock Cord Lock. Ring pulls hang 3" (+-0.5") below the headrail and are an additional charge. Top-Lok is especially useful for installation where the headrail is equal to or greater than eight feet from the floor. Top-Lok is keeps unauthorized personnel from raising or lowering blinds. Authorized personnel may adjust the blinds by hooking an ordinary window pole onto the ring at the end of the lift cord (pole not included).
