Manual mechanism with a chain cord, which is placed on request on one side of the canvas. It allows you to fix the level of the curtains at any height.
Electronic control using remote control - this adjustment by means of an electric drive. The remote view is used mainly where manual control is difficult, for example, if the mechanism is arranged high on the ceiling or the windows are of considerable size.

The price is also influenced by the quality indicators of fastening materials, cassettes and guide mechanisms.
The price also includes a fabric that can be dense or transparent, monophonic or colored, natural or synthetic.
