By now you know that Svelte is a slimmer, contemporary line of made-to-measure drapery hardware that greatly simplifies the motorization process with built-in tracks that accommodate both Somfy motors or manual traversing options. What you may not know, is that Svelte now includes our new Smooth profile with sleek curved edges. Both styles feature popular mitered returns (with wall-mounted brackets and a 4″ return) in 8-10 standard finishes. The square profile also has two additional “built-in” finial styles in the End Cap and Dado options which nicely mimic a finial design without the extra pieces.
Ordering the “stock” Svelte hardware for your project is exceedingly simple, and production time is often two to four weeks. Note: to learn more about Svelte specifications see our Svelte Specifications page.
But what about customizing this system for your window designs? That process is much like our other pole and finial lines, where you’ll work directly with JLA staff to price out custom finishes (either from our JLA finishes or a strikeout to match a texture or color), and additions like roller-snap carriers for ripplefold draperies or accommodations for motors from Lutron or BTX. As usual, you have options even in this “prefab” system, and we can assist you every step of the way.
SVELTE goes way beyond the concept of “prefab” to deliver more cost-effective and standardized designs that deliver designer drapery hardware in less time.
