What’s New in Window Treatment Hardware for 2018?

February 20, 2018

It’s a brand new year and we are excited about the new products we have added to our window treatment  hardware line-up.

Motorize your window treatment hardware!

Motorization is a big seller for this year. Everyone wants it and we have it. Our shiny new Metro collection now  offers a motorized version that is so easy to use. Our terrific FG Motors are better than ever and will still handle from 100 to 160 pounds of fabric. Wow, that’s a lot of power for those larger windows. Our industry best 10 year warranty means you can’t go wrong.

Helser Brothers Motorized Metro Rod

Better yet, we have added motorization to our popular Ruffino Traverse Collection. So now you can have almost any finial, in almost any finish, and motorize your treatment. We have added very sturdy, easy to install bracket options that actually cut the price significantly!

Petite is better.

Hand drawn Metro Traverse is also now available in a petite 1-1/8″ diameter. Because smaller rods are so popular, we have also added the smaller 1-1/8″ to our Ruffino Traverse Collection. You can choose between 3 sizes of Ruffino traverse rods to give your clients more options!

Better Bypass!

Helser Brothers Sleek Bypass Bracket

New and improved adjustable bypass brackets are a big part of our 2018 launch. We first offered these sleek bypass brackets in the Metro line, and now we have added them for Jackie Von Tobel and Artigiani too. We have also re-designed our bypass rings to work with the new sleeker bypass brackets. And again, due to your feedback, we have designed the small size ring to be used with the 1-1/4″ rod and the extra small rings to be used wth the 7/8″ rod.

Hand Applied Custom Finishes

We did make a change in our finish program. While the vast majority of our drapery hardware finishes will be included in the published price, we have added a small 10% upcharge to just a few finishes. The finishes listed below involve multiple layers of paint or extended drying times and simply put, require more attention. We are delighted that all of our best selling finishes have no upcharge.

Metal Finishes:

M300 – Asti   M-301 – Oyster Shell   M-305 – Burnished Brass   M-306 Pewter   M-309 Heirloom   M-310 French Quarter

Wood Finishes

W-300 – Asti   W-301 – Oyster Shell   W-306 – Pewter   W-309 – Heirloom   W-301 – French Quarter

Stay tuned!

We have lots more to share, so watch this space!
