2.02 Materials
A. Shade Fabrics: The fabric shall have a high degree of opacity
for effective control of light. The fabric must have sufficient
rigidity to insure straight hanging, resist curl, twist, bowing
and distortion. It must be dimensionally stable and will not
shrink or stretch. The color shall be selected from standard
colors. All seams are to be heat-sealed. Sewing is not accepted.
B. Tube: The fabric shades shall be mounted on to 1 ¼,
1 ½”, 2” or 2 ½” diameter
aluminum tube depending on the width of the shade and fabric
chosen for the shade.
C. Bead Chain Clutch: The clutch incorporates an adjustable
slip clutch to control the rate of fall from free running
zero friction factor to a factor of 100%. The shade may be
adjusted to stop and hold at any position. The bead chain
shall contain automatic stops to prevent the shade from over
winding or unrolling off the tube. The bead chain may be either
PVC or metal ball type.
D. Easy Lift™: This option is added to all shades that
are over 30 pounds.
E. Shade Mounting Brackets: Shall be manufactured from .060”
galvanized steel, reversible for right and left hand mounting.
The brackets may be field-mounted inside, outside or ceiling
mounted. Fascia brackets shall be painted to match Fascia
color.
F. Hembar: Shall be a continuous aluminum bar 1” X
3/16” with sufficient weight to allow the shade to close
without buckling or sagging.
G. Side (Sill) Channels: Extruded aluminum channel through
which each side of a shade travels to create blackout application.
The rails shall contain soft brushes on a minimum of one side
depending on application to enclose the fabric shade in a
light tight condition. The side and bottom channels should
be installed in a light bead of caulking to prevent light
penetration.
H. Fascia System: All fascia systems shall be prime painted
with baked enamel utilizing the powder paint method to ensure
an environmentally friendly application. Wet paint method
shall not be accepted.
I. Pocket System (Option): This system allows the shade to
be recessed into the ceiling. |
