Shades:

Style that rolls,
light that controls

Let’s get started

Our Shades Products

Every shade we make is custom — Roman shades, roller shades, cellular (honeycomb) shades, solar shades, woven woods, and blackout shades — measured to your exact windows and installed by our own team, never a subcontractor.

Need a bedroom truly dark? Blackout roller shades and blackout cellular shades block light no ready-made product can match. Want soft, tailored folds of fabric? Roman shades add drapery warmth without the bulk. Fighting glare off the water? Solar shades tame it without giving up the view. And for Maine winters, insulating honeycomb shades earn their keep every January.

Open the styles below to compare, then come see the fabrics in person at our Portland showroom — 936 Brighton Avenue — or book a free in-home design consultation. Manual or motorized, we measure, install, and service everything we sell.

Want fabric as well as a shade? See custom drapery in Portland, Maine — drapery layers over shades beautifully, and side panels finish a room that a shade alone leaves bare.
