What Is A Front Load Option?

Sep 4 2025 | By: Tammy Thompson

Share

A front-load option is an optional feature for roman shades in which the artisan mounts the shade to the back of the headrail, bringing it closer to the window. It includes a 6" self-valance mounted to the front of the shade mechanism covering the front of the lift system.

Appropriate for minimizing light gaps because the shade falls flat against the mounting surface.

Please note that the Vako Crank Arm or Chain will be visible on the front of the shade.
