No matter how high the Duette® UltraGlideTM shade is raised, the cord remains at the same safe distance from the floor, keeping it out of the reach of children and pets and maintaining a clean, uncluttered look. The system only requires one hand, which facilitates talking on the phone or holding a child. Sales are 12 percent over projections and the product has also increased market share by giving dealers and consumers one more reason to choose duette.
