Choosing the Best: Window Blinds, Shades, Solar Screens, Shutters, and Window Treatments

An East End Blinds Installer works on a NYC project.

Window treatments make a tremendous contribution to the loveliness of a home. There are hundreds of varieties and a similar amount of installers. It’s very important to choose both wisely, and the two go hand-in-hand. Pick an installer with design expertise; one that will be candid with you and help you pick styles that will complement your home not detract from its beauty. Someone from the design team of the installer will sit with you and review all of the options, the details of installation, and costs & benefits.

There are specific applications for sliding patio doors, bay windows, portrait windows, double hung windows, and sunrooms. There are choices to be made on materials, colors, operating mechanisms, and the amount of sunlight that is blocked or allowed through. Choose from:

Sheers & Shadings to create beautiful effects with diffused natural light. SOFTLY FILTER NATURAL LIGHT TO CREATE BEAUTIFUL SPACES Our innovative Sheers & Shadings beautifully diffuse and soften natural light deep into a room. Easily adjust the vanes to suit your desired level of privacy and light control while maintaining UV protection.
