Ultra Wood Horizontal Blinds Key Features
Horizontal Blind Controls
- Standard controls (L/R) are tilt on left and lift on right.
- Reverse controls (R/L) are tilt on right and lift on left.
- Left controls (L/L) are lift and tilt on left.
- Right controls (R/R) are lift and tilt on right.
- Net blind widths 9” – 10 7/8” must have center controls.
- Net blind widths 11” – 22” must have split controls.
Horizontal Blind Cord Tilt
Experience smooth operation and added style with our cord tilt feature, utilizing two coordinating cords with matching tassels for simple opening and closing of your blind slats.
Horizontal Blind Wand Tilt
With Wand Tilt, the lift cord raises and lowers the blind to your desired position with the cord lock system. Unlike cord tilt, a sleek matching wand now tilts the slats open and closed for a refined touch.
Horizontal Blind Features
- Large color selection (smooth and embossed)
- Heavy-duty components for smooth lift and tilt
- 3 1/4″ Matching Crown Valance (optional matching returns)
- Optional cloth tape
- Optional routeless feature
- Horizontal Blind 2” x 2 1/4” Headrail
- Trapezoid bottom rails
- Hold-down brackets and pins when applicable (typically used on door installations).
Horizontal Blind 2-on-1 Headrail
Ideal for larger windows, the 2-on-1 Headrail Operating System offers effortless operation and extends the lifespan of lift cords. Although perfect slat alignment cannot be guaranteed, our supplier aligns slats to the best of their ability with a tolerance of 1/8″. For windows wider than 73″, multiple headrails are recommended. Blinds wider than 108″ are not recommended by Sanford Verticals.
