BASSWOOD BLIND VALANCE ATTACHES WITH MAGNETS

    All valances on Basswood blinds (1", 2", 2 ½") and Faux Wood blinds (2", 2 1/2") atttach to the headrail with a new magnetic system. This new valance magnet system is completely hidden when viewed from the front of the blind. The magnets are very strong and durable. This simple system gives you another reason to up sell your customer to wood blinds instead of faux wood blinds. Market research has proven that consumers are willing to pay a little more for an invisible valance system. In addition, this system is easy to install and does not break when painters or cleaning people remove the valance from the blind. 

These magnets are attached to the back of the valance with screws. The valance is then placed in position and "locks" on the head rail. Valance returns are mitered and glued to the valance eliminating the need for separate returns that could fall off. This clever magnet system allows the consumer to adjust and remove the valance with ease.

Our "Sliding Panel Track" has an aluminum top track with panels that slide on rollers. Panel tracks can be made to stack to the right, left or center opening. Panels are made from 12" to 40" with up to 5 panels mounted on 1 track. Butt two tracks together to cover an expanse of up to 288" (maximum track width is 144").

Design options include adding a privacy or room-darkening lining, coordinating or contrasting edge bindings, and valances.
