D3 is a complex database that compiles thousands of fabrics, blinds and shades in an easy to view format. This database is easy to access by following the steps below. The Diamond Drapery Company has over 30,000 fabrics to choose from. The fabrics represented in D3 are Diamond Drapery's most popular fabrics.
There are up to five categories that ask for information to narrow the user's search. To broaden the search, do not complete all of the categories. To narrow the search, check as many categories as appropriate.
Specific Name Search
This search feature provides the user with the opportunity to search by a specific pattern or a specific color. For this search to be effective the user must accurately spell the pattern name or the color. If a misspelling occurs, D3 will not yield the appropriate results.
Primary Application
This category enables the user to choose which application the fabric will be used for. Please choose as many applications as apply. There are different fire regulations based on specific applications.
Color Category
The criteria required for this category will vary based on the color scheme. The more colors that are chosen the narrower the results will become. To expand the search, do not choose any colors.
For example, if the user checks a blue and a white fabric, then only the fabrics that have blue and white in them will be displayed. The user will not view fabrics that are simply blue or simply white. A new search would be necessary to view all of the blue or white fabrics. To find fabrics, that are only blue, a new query would have to be constructed, specifying only blue in the color category. To find fabrics, that are only white, a new query would have to be constructed, specifying only white in the color category.
Solar Type
This option enables the user to choose the exact type of shade that will be utilized. Do not attempt to complete this category if there are any questions on what each solar shade type is. If this category is left blank, then the search results will be expanded.
Color Category
The criteria required for this category will vary based on the color scheme. The more colors that are chosen the narrower the results will become. To expand the search, do not choose any colors. For example, if the user checks a blue and a white fabric, then only the fabrics that have blue and white in them will be displayed.

To find fabrics, that are only blue, a new query would have to be constructed, specifying only blue in the color category. To find fabrics, that are only white, a new query would have to be constructed, specifying only white in the color category.
Openness
This is the final query category for the D3 shade search. By now, it is possible that the user has narrowed the search by four prior categories. The pattern category refers to the general opacity of the fabric. Some fabrics may have a high openness percentage, while others have a very tightly woven design. The more openness styles that are chosen, the smaller the search results will be. If this category is left blank, the search results will be expanded.
