Palos Verdes Estates privacy line

Top-Down Bottom-Up Privacy in Palos Verdes Estates

A lower privacy layer can protect a room without giving up the sky or upper view. The rail position should be chosen from the actual exterior angle rather than from the midpoint of the glass.

Use the terrain and room position

A window uphill from the street has a different privacy line from one below a neighboring home. Check the room seated, standing, and from the outside approach before setting the useful stop.

Bathroom

Protect the direct sightline and verify fabric opacity under interior lighting.

Bedroom

Use lower coverage by day and full closure at night.

Front sitting room

Block pedestrian view while keeping upper daylight open.

Room plan

What to document before the written order

  • Record the outside viewing point.
  • Mark the privacy height.
  • Choose one fabric opacity.
  • Confirm the rail stack and window handle clearance.

Example: sloped approach

The sightline can rise or fall quickly across a sloped lot. A measurement visit should verify the view from the relevant path instead of applying a standard percentage of window height.

Does this system have two motors?

Can it use two colors?

It normally uses one selected cellular fabric. Choose day-and-night honeycomb when two fabric functions are required.

Can it be manual?

Yes. Manual honeycomb starts at $499 installed and the current manual top-down bottom-up system has no added system charge.
