About Pleated Shades

Crisp folds for small and special windows

Pleated shades have a single layer of fabric folded into sharp pleats. They stack slim, so they are a nice choice for small windows, door lights, skylights and tucked-away spots.

They come in sheer, light-filtering and room-darkening fabrics and can be cordless, top-down bottom-up or motorized. We measure carefully for neat fits on small windows.

Before and After

See the Difference

Drag the handle to compare. Photos are illustrative.

Before: A kitchen window over a sink with no covering, glare on the countertop and a view of the neighbors, white cabinets, a plant on the sill
After: The same kitchen, sink, cabinets and plant, now with crisp white faux wood blinds tilted partly open on the window, same angle and same light
BeforeAfter
Bare Kitchen Window to Moisture-Friendly BlindsA bare kitchen window with glare gained crisp white faux wood blinds that wipe clean.

Photos on this site are illustrative and show typical homes, rooms and windows, not completed Music City Blinds projects. Every window is measured and confirmed with a visit before treatments are made, and fabrics, colors and options depend on the manufacturer. Figures in our tools are planning estimates only.

Good to Know

Questions About Pleated Shades

Still have a question?

Call 615-357-7797

Are pleated shades insulating?

Single-layer pleated shades add less insulation than cellular shades. We can compare them for you.

Can pleated shades go on skylights?

Yes. Special tracks and controls allow shades on skylights.

Are they good for bathrooms?

Many fabrics tolerate humidity. We will recommend the right one.
