Picture the best features of shutters, shades and blinds — and then go further. Add to your image top and bottom rails that function exactly like the rest of the window covering. Next, visualize light transformed in limitless ways, all under your control. Congratulations — you’ve just imagined Alouette® LightLouvers. Shutter. Shade. Blind. Combined.

• Fabric louvers tilt for variable light control.
• Headrail and bottom rail pivot with the louvers for fully integrated form and function.
• Cellular louvers beautifully filter incoming light, plus add insulating value.
• Choice of operating systems add to the product's appeal.
• Optional fabric-covered valance provides a more traditional look in the window.

PIVOTAL® OPERATING SYSTEM

Alouette LightLouvers utilize a unique Pivotal® Operating System where the headrail pivots with the louvers and bottom rail for fully integrated function.
The system is offered in 3 distinct designs:

• BTS – the louvers are tilted with a tilt bar, and raised and lowered using a lift tab on the tilt bar.

• BCS – the louvers are tilted with a tilt bar, and raised and lowered using a lift cord.

• CCS – both the tilt and lift functions are cord operated.

The Bar-Cord system (BCS) is available in a Tandem Side-By-Side configuration, spanning widths of up to 144". Tandem Side-By-Side (SBS) units feature one tilt bar control for all panels and separate lift cord controls for each panel.

FABRIC-COVERED VALANCE

The fabric-covered valance has the appearance of a headrail, which gives the product more of a traditional look. It is available on all operating systems and mounts easily inside or outside the window opening using Vignette® Modern Roman Shades installation brackets. The valance end caps incorporate Alouette mounting brackets for easy installation of the Alouette headrail.
