Cordless vs. Motorized Roman Shades: Which Should You Choose?
Cordless Roman shades lift and lower by hand with no dangling cord, while motorized Roman shades raise and lower with an app, remote, or voice command. Cordless costs less and needs no batteries or wiring, making it the simple default for windows you reach every day. Motorized is worth the extra investment for tall, wide, or hard-to-reach windows, or if you want smart-home control. For a full breakdown, read our Cordless vs. Motorized Roman Shades guide.
Custom Roman Shades FAQ
What's the difference between cordless and motorized Roman shades?
Cordless Roman shades lift and lower by hand with no dangling cord, while motorized Roman shades raise and lower with an app, remote, or voice command. Both remove the cord hazard of traditional corded shades — motorized adds hands-free convenience on top.
Are custom Roman shades safe for homes with kids or pets?
Yes. Both our cordless and motorized lift systems are cord-free, removing the strangulation risk that loose, dangling cords pose to young children and pets.
Can Roman shades be made to fit any window size?
Yes — every Roman shade on this page is custom made to your exact window measurements, including oversized, narrow, and irregular windows.
Should I choose cordless or motorized for a large or hard-to-reach window?
Motorized is usually the better fit for tall, wide, or hard-to-reach windows, since you can raise and lower the shade without a pole or step stool. For windows you reach easily every day, cordless works just as well for less cost.
Can I get a free fabric swatch before I order?
Yes — free fabric swatches are available so you can check color and texture in your own space before committing to a custom order.
What's the difference between flat, relaxed, and hobbled Roman shades?
Flat Roman shades lie smooth and tailored when lowered, relaxed shades have a soft gentle curve at the bottom, and hobbled shades keep soft horizontal folds even when fully extended. All three are available in cordless or motorized lift.
