Abstract:
An arrangement for mounting an actuator button to a rail wherein the fastener for securing the button housing to the rail is hidden from view of the user.
Abstract:
In one aspect, a lift station configured for use with a covering for an architectural structure includes a housing and one or more lift spools disposed within a spool cavity defined by the housing. Additionally, the lift station also includes first and second outriggers extending outwardly from opposed sides of the housing of the lift station. The first outrigger is configured to define a first cord guide surface for guiding a front lift cord between a front side of the covering and the spool cavity of the housing. Similarly, the second outrigger is configured to define a second cord guide surface for guiding a rear lift cord between a rear side of the covering and the spool cavity of the housing.
Abstract:
A covering for an architectural opening has a horizontal movable rail supported by cords, with a variety of configurations which allow the movable rail to be moved up and down while concealing the cords.
Abstract:
A handle is releasably secured to a rail wall by means of fasteners extending from inside the rail. An actuator shaft pushes against a contact plate to move a movable braking member to stop the rotation of a rod inside the rail.

Abstract:
In one aspect, a slat configured for use with a covering for an architectural structure includes a route slot defined at least partially by a route wall that is recessed relative to one or more outer faces of the slat. Additionally, the recessed route wall further defines a through-hole for passing a cord through the route slot between the opposed outer faces of the slat. By configuring the disclosed route slot in this manner, the dimensions of the through-hole can be significantly reduced while still allowing full tilting of the slat to the closed position, thereby increasing light control and privacy for the associated covering.
