VertiStripe Zebra Shades

All zebra shades are horizontal—until now. VertiStripe Zebra Shades flip the classic design on its side, featuring alternating vertical bands of sheer and opaque fabric. This bold, architectural orientation draws the eye upward, making ceilings feel higher and windows appear more expansive. The operation is equally innovative: the shade rolls side‑to‑side rather than up‑and‑down, and the vertical bands are aligned or staggered by sliding the shade horizontally. This unique configuration is perfect for wide windows, sliding glass doors, and contemporary interiors where you want to make a statement. Available in 3‑inch band width only (vertical), with a curated palette of 12 colors. Custom‑sized to your exact window dimensions, with continuous cord loop or motorized operation only. Not your average zebra shade.

Vertical Orientation – A Fresh Perspective

VertiStripe is our only vertical‑orientation zebra shade, offering a dramatic alternative to traditional horizontal bands. The sheer and opaque stripes run top to bottom, creating a striking elongating effect that visually lifts the ceiling and makes windows appear taller. This orientation is ideal for:

  • Wide windows where horizontal stripes can feel repetitive

  • Sliding glass doors — intuitive side‑to‑side operation

  • Contemporary interiors seeking a bold architectural element

  • Commercial spaces that benefit from a distinctive, modern aesthetic

Side‑to‑Side Operation

Instead of rolling up and down, VertiStripe shades traverse horizontally. A continuous cord loop or motorized drive moves the shade smoothly from left to right (or right to left). The vertical bands align or stagger as the two fabric panels shift relative to each other, giving you the same light‑tuning flexibility as horizontal zebra shades—just in a fresh, vertical format.

Ideal for Wide Windows & Sliding Doors

VertiStripe shines on openings that are wider than they are tall:

  • Sliding glass doors — widths up to 144 inches

  • Large picture windows — dramatic floor‑to‑ceiling presence

  • Commercial storefronts — clean, professional, modern

  • Conference rooms — architectural and sophisticated

Motorization Recommended

Because of the side‑to‑side movement and potential span, we recommend motorized operation for VertiStripe shades. Choose from:

  • Battery motors — 3–5 year life per charge

  • Hardwired motors — continuous, maintenance‑free operation

A continuous cord loop is also available for manual use.

Arctic White, Ivory, Sand, Light Grey, Greige, Taupe, Charcoal, Navy, Sage, Terracotta, Black, and an exclusive Black/White two‑tone option.

All fabrics are solution‑dyed and backed by a 10‑year fade warranty.
