Architect Series - Blackout Panel Track Blinds

Why It's A Must Have

Designing in today’s living spaces need to be more flexible and offer more functionality than ever before. Window treatments included! Covering large windows and doors in small areas with different degrees of light and privacy needs can be challenging. But you can do this! With Architect Blackout Panel Track blinds, you’re the architect of your own design!

Privacy can be hard to come by in smaller spaces. These designer-quality panels can help you protect it. Block out the world and wrap your rooms in softer light with room darkening fabrics to complement any decor plan. This curated collection of wider, vertical panels comes in sets of two to 10 panels for a wide set of possible coverage options. The track system lets you adjust the position of each panel to easily control light and privacy. Because they stack neatly behind one another, you can quickly change the look and feel of your indoor space.

For operation, you can choose between standard wand operation, or remote motorization upgrade. For 5-channel remote control upgrade option, width of panel area needs to be between 40" and 120". Remote control works for left, right, and split stack, but not for free-flow stack. The motor comes with one charging cord, installed on the left side of the track; motor housing will always be white in color, and 5-channel remote device will always be silver. Battery charge lasts about 400 cycles (1 cycle = full open and close motion).

For more flexibility, hang them as ceiling mounts to divide up your space or to create storage areas. Want to replace those outdated bi-fold doors? These panel tracks are the best for hiding unsightly messes. Especially in your teen's closet! Expand the look of your living spaces when you coordinate them with Architect Blackout Roller Shades. Blend the look of your window and door treatments. Raise eyebrows with an optional fabric-wrapped cornice board for a crisp, tailored look from the top to the fabric-wrapped bottom rail. This specially designed panel track system also features a cordless manual wand control or remote control to smoothly open and close your blinds. No dangerous cords to distract kids and pets or interfere with their streamlined look. All the hardware you need to hang them is included, too. If you do need help, our panel of window treatment experts are always available to assist.

“SelectBlinds.com has an easy to use ordering portal and is so easy to work with! I requested some samples, which I received promptly for free. I was thinking of going with Blind Chalet, but SelectBlinds.com had better prices, good quality and a quick turnaround.”

Widths greater than 119" require a spliced track for maximum support. A spliced track is two tracks joined together.

Cornice boards wider than 119" will be made up of two separate cornices that are installed side by side.

Standard panel overlap: 1-1/2”

Inside mount deductions: 1/2" off of panels, 1/4" off of headrail. 1/2" off of height. Deductions may vary +/- 1/8.

There will be a 1/2" light gap at the bottom of the hanging panels.

Calculation for finding panel width is: Ordered track width + Appropriate panel count (provided below)/ Divided by how many panels ordered= Panel Width (Round up to nearest 1/8")

Appropriate Panel Count: 2 panels + 3", 3 panels + 6", 4 panels + 9", 5 panels + 12", 6 panels + 15", 7 panels + 18", 8 panels + 21", 10 panels + 27"

For example: If you are ordering a track at 70" wide with 7 panels- 70+18= 88/7= 12" panel width.

Total height includes panels plus the track. Panels will be approximately 1-3/8" smaller than height ordered for inside mount and 1" for outside mount. With a cornice, it will be 2-1/4" smaller than height for inside mount and 1-7/8" smaller for outside mount.

There is no light gap between the rail and the panels.

Overall panel track will be 3/8" less on width and 1/2" on height.

Outside mounted panel tracks that are left or right stack will have the wand placed on the leading edge of the front panel. All other configurations will have the wand placed behind the leading edge of the front panel, hidden from view. Free Flow panel tracks will not have a wand.

Right control stacks panels on the left. Left control stacks panels on right. Free flow panels can be stacked anywhere.

If outside mount is selected ceiling mount hardware will need to be requested through customer service.

Please note that the back of each shade may not match the front of the shade. In most cases the Essential Collection will be a similar color to the front while the Lifestyle and Architect Collections will be white. Please order samples to ensure you are happy with the color on both sides before ordering.

Panels may have an approximate 1/2" deep gap between them.

I am absolutely thrilled with the look design color and ease from the "free samples" to ordering to the arrival of my blinds and the ease of hanging them. Everything came wrapped securely and packaged with care. The quality of the blinds, cornice and track system is top notch. The look transforms my family room.

I have been looking for panels like this for my bedroom closet for years and am so happy to have found Select blinds. Customer service was great. Stayed on the phone with me until I had exactly what I was looking for. Both my husband and I love them. So clean looking and makes the bedroom look bigger too. Love the look. The only thing that was hard, were following the instructions. I’m glad my husband is one who can figure things out.
