A system is presented that can be used to install pinch pleat drapery as well as ripplefold drapery onto a drapery rod as well as a drapery track. The system includes the use of a plurality of attachment members that have a center channel, a left channel and a right channel that are configured to receive a drapery pin therein. When a pinch pleat drapery is installed, drapery pins are placed in the center channels of the attachment members. When a ripplefold drapery is installed, drapery pins are installed in the attachment members in a pattern wherein adjacent drapery pins point in opposite directions thereby forming a pattern of drapery pins that point left, right, left, right and so on. In this way, a single system may be used that installs both pinch pleat drapery as well as ripplefold drapery onto a drapery rod as well as a drapery track.

A securement means to secure and display a fabric in a form of a panel to be used as a window treatment, shower curtain, etc. is provided. The securement means can include an arrangement of securements that allow for suspension of the panel from a support unit. The arrangement can include sets of securement with predefined spacings that may generate a natural tendency to form a plurality of pleats in an even and consistent manner. The securement means can further include a lead-in securement. The lead-in securement can be positioned to have a predefined spacing between it and a lateral side of the panel that the lead-in securement is most proximal to. Any of the spacings can further allow the panel to be suspended from the support unit without the panel interfering with a window treatment positioned behind the panel.

A wirelessly controllable, motorized and battery powered drapery apparatus is presented having a rotatable drive element having a guide structure in its surface. The rotatable drive is inserted through the open interior of a plurality of grommets in the shade material. A grommet driver is positioned over the rotatable drive element and connected to one of the plurality of grommets. The grommet driver has at least one tooth that is in communication with the guide structure in the rotatable drive element. As the rotatable drive element is rotated, the grommet drive is driven along the length of the rotatable drive element thereby moving the shade material between an open position and a closed position.
