Cadence™ Soft Vertical Blind is the recipient of the WCMA Best New Style Concept in the Vertical Category for 2003!

Establish A New Rhythm 
For Vertical Blinds 
With Cadence
!

A New Dimension In Verticals!
The all new Cadence Collection is the freshest look for vertical blinds in years! Featuring a unique curved louver, soft in form and three-dimensional in appearance. The unique curved profile gives any completed window treatment the appearance of fabric combined with the functional benefits of vinyl. 

Cadence is positioned to attract new customers to vertical blinds while maintaining the same performance standards expected from a Hunter Douglas vertical blind.

29 Color Choices Plus Coordinating Fabric
This exclusive collection features five styles each with its own color palette, offering different choices of finished patterns.  There are two Double-sided print styles and two Duotone styles, both containing Softex™ - a patented texture process that creates a soft fabric-like look and reduces noise.  The fifth style contains Lutex™, which adds a translucent quality to the Cadence product. Lutex provides light control during the day and total privacy in the evening.  (NOTE: Both Softex and Lutex products are available on other selections in the popular Hunter Douglas Innerstyle® Collection.) 

When drawn across the window, the Cadence vanes have a unique fabric-like appearance, but one of the most surprising features of Cadence is the vanes, when stacked mimic the appearance of a soft drapery.  All in all Cadence is offered in a total of 29 color choices.  Each is current with the latest trends in the home furnishing industry. Also contained within the collection is a coordinating Fabric By The Yard Program.  

No-Charge Options. 
The Cadence collection has made these popular options available at no additional charge:

  • The New DualFold double-tiered valance
  • The Paramount® Contoured Headrail System with 6 SoftSuede® Color options.

  • The PermaTilt® Wand Control Unit (Upon request when order is placed)

Important Installation Note!
With Cadence Collection, not only is there the option of choosing the style and color, but the direction of the vertical’s new unique profile.  When ordering Cadence Soft Vertical Blinds, the orientation of the louvers MUST be specified. This is a feature that cannot be field-adjusted.

With most flat vertical blinds, this decision can be made upon installation and changed if necessary.  The unique shape of Cadence requires the vane orientation to be decided as part of the sales process.

The picture at right shows how the orientation is selected.  You'll want to consider other room features and the way the room is used to decide orientation.
