No more wrestling with broken cords or settling for treatments that almost fit. No more rooms that are either too bright or too dark because your current window coverings don’t give you real control.

We’ve been transforming Shelter Island Heights homes for over two decades. We’re the locally-owned company your neighbors trust when they want window treatments that actually last.

Shelter Island Heights homes need treatments that can handle coastal conditions while delivering the sophisticated look this community is known for. We carry the complete Hunter Douglas line, including their motorized PowerView systems that integrate with Alexa and Google Home.
For energy efficiency, cellular shades provide excellent insulation—crucial for those summer cooling bills and winter heating costs. Plantation shutters add serious curb appeal and home value. Solar shades block heat and glare while preserving your water views.
Families with young children love our cordless options that eliminate safety hazards. Home offices benefit from light-filtering shades that reduce screen glare without blocking natural light completely. Large windows and sliding doors get specialized treatments designed to handle their size and weight properly.
Coastal conditions require treatments that resist humidity, salt air, and intense UV exposure. That’s why we recommend specific materials and brands engineered for these challenges.
Faux wood blinds are ideal because they won’t warp or crack like real wood, and they’re easy to clean when salt residue builds up. For fabric treatments, we recommend fade-resistant materials with protective coatings that maintain their appearance despite challenging conditions.
Hunter Douglas offers several collections specifically engineered for coastal areas, including their Silhouette and Luminette lines. Motorized treatments are particularly smart in coastal homes because they reduce wear from daily operation and eliminate cords that can be affected by humidity.
Absolutely. We specialize in Hunter Douglas PowerView motorization, which integrates seamlessly with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and most smart home systems.
You can control individual treatments or entire rooms with voice commands or smartphone apps. Set schedules so your shades automatically adjust for privacy in the evening or open for natural light in the morning. You can even control them remotely when you’re off-island.
The rechargeable battery systems last months between charges, and installation includes full programming and integration setup. We’ll show you how to use all the features and make sure everything connects properly with your existing smart home setup.
Basic custom blinds start around $200-$350 per window, while motorized shades or plantation shutters run $500-$800 per window. This investment makes financial sense when you consider that custom treatments last 10-15 years and often increase your home’s value.
Energy-efficient options can reduce cooling costs by 15-25% during summer months, helping offset the initial cost. We provide detailed estimates with no surprises, and we can suggest ways to maximize your budget without compromising on quality.
Many clients start with high-priority rooms like bedrooms and living areas, then add other rooms over time. Quality treatments are worth doing right rather than settling for cheaper options that need replacement in a few years.
Most Shelter Island Heights homes take 1-2 days for complete installation, depending on the number of windows and complexity of treatments. Simple blinds and shades can often be completed in a single day.
Motorized treatments and plantation shutters require additional time for proper programming and adjustment. We schedule installations to minimize disruption to your daily routine and always clean up completely when we’re finished.
The timeline from order to installation is typically 2-3 weeks for custom treatments. We coordinate delivery and installation to ensure everything arrives when we’re ready to install, so you’re not dealing with boxes of window treatments sitting around your home.
Child safety is a top priority, and we offer extensive cordless options that eliminate strangulation hazards while maintaining full functionality. Cordless Roman shades and cellular shades are popular choices that operate smoothly without any dangling cords.
Motorized treatments provide the ultimate in child safety since there are no cords at all—just wireless remote control or smartphone operation. These also add convenience for parents who want to adjust multiple windows quickly.
We follow all current safety standards and can retrofit existing treatments with cord cleats or other safety devices if needed. During our consultation, we’ll identify any potential safety concerns and recommend the best cordless solutions for your family’s needs.
Coastal environments require slightly more attention to keep treatments looking their best, but proper materials make maintenance straightforward. Faux wood blinds can be wiped down with a damp cloth to remove salt residue, and most fabric treatments can be vacuumed with a brush attachment.
Hunter Douglas treatments often feature dust-resistant and fade-resistant properties that reduce maintenance needs. Motorized systems actually require less maintenance because there’s no manual wear on operating mechanisms.
We provide specific care instructions for your chosen treatments and can recommend professional cleaning services when needed. Most quality treatments maintain their appearance for years with basic care, and we’re always available for any maintenance questions or service needs.
