Windows let in light and provide us with a view of the outside. Often, we want to have our windows covered only at certain times of the day or evening. Decorative traverse rods will allow draperies to be drawn off the glass when opened and cover the glass when closed, all with the pull of a draw cord. With a decorative traversing drapery rod, this can be done with the pull of a draw cord. Motorized drapery rods are also available, making the opening and closing of draperies as simple as flipping a switch —especially nice for those hard-to-reach windows. And most complete of all, a double traverse decorative drapery rod allows for many layers of draperies. This rod option lets you maximize the control of light, view, privacy, noise, and temperature, thus providing some sun control and daytime privacy without blocking the view or light entirely.
