FlexMedia Shades

A dedicated media room is a luxury; a multi‑purpose family room that hosts both movie nights and daytime activities is a necessity. FlexMedia Shades are engineered for the latter—spaces that need to transform from bright, airy gaming dens to dark, immersive theaters at the touch of a button. The solution is our dual‑opacity headrail, which pairs a 100% blackout panel with a light‑filtering panel (5% openness) on a single roller. During the day, lower the light‑filtering panel to soften glare on screens while maintaining a connection to the outdoors. At dusk, lower the blackout panel for total darkness. Both panels are woven from the same fabric family (choose from smooth, textured, or heathered) and color, ensuring visual harmony. Available with cordless, continuous loop, or motorized operation. Motorized versions can be programmed with “Day” and “Night” presets. Custom‑made to your exact window dimensions.

Dual Opacity Headrail: Two Shades in One

The FlexMedia dual‑shade system mounts two independent fabric panels on a single headrail, sharing the same roller tube for a compact, streamlined footprint. Each panel operates independently—via separate clutches or motors—so you can fine‑tune light control without adding extra brackets or width. The blackout panel sits closest to the window for maximum light block, while the light‑filtering panel faces the room. When both are lowered, the sheer or light‑filtering layer provides a soft decorative finish while the blackout layer handles the heavy lifting behind it.

Acoustic Fabric Options

Media rooms benefit enormously from sound absorption, and FlexMedia offers both blackout and light‑filtering panels in acoustic‑rated fabrics (NRC 0.15–0.25). These fabrics feature a subtle nap that traps sound waves, reducing slap echo and reverberation. It’s an elegant way to improve audio clarity without adding bulky acoustic panels—especially helpful in rooms with hard flooring or minimal upholstery.

IR / RF Motorization

Motorization is practically essential in a media environment. FlexMedia shades support IR receivers compatible with universal remotes (including Logitech Harmony) and RF motors that work through cabinetry and walls. For smart homes, Wi‑Fi bridge modules integrate seamlessly with Alexa and Google Home. You can group shades into a single “Movie Mode” command that lowers all blackout panels and raises all light‑filtering panels in one smooth motion.

Wall‑Mount Remote Included

Every motorized FlexMedia shade includes a wall‑mount transmitter that installs next to your light switch for intuitive, guest‑friendly control. No phone required. The transmitter can operate up to 16 shades individually or in groups, and its batteries last 3–5 years with an LED indicator to signal when they’re running low.

Color Coordination

Both the blackout and light‑filtering panels are available in the same curated palette of 12 colors, from neutrals like Ivory, Greige, and Grey to accents like Slate Blue and Sage. The light‑filtering panel will appear slightly lighter due to its translucence, but the color family remains perfectly matched—ensuring a cohesive, intentional look whether one or both panels are lowered.
