A closer look

See how the light changes.

Fabric names only tell part of the story. Review samples at home to see how texture and opacity react to your specific daylight and privacy needs.

Blackout fabrics for rest.

Our blackout materials offer excellent light control for bedrooms. While the fabric blocks light, we also help you plan mounting details to minimize gaps around the edges of your windows.

Soft light and views.

Light-filtering fabrics soften the sun without obscuring your view. We can help you balance your desire for daytime brightness with the privacy you need when your home is lit at night.

Texture adds warm depth.

A textured weave brings life to a neutral room. Hold samples against your walls and upholstery to see how they catch the light throughout the day, ensuring a cohesive, natural feel.

A closer look

Smooth, effortless operation.

Choose the control that fits your home. We offer manual and automated systems designed to make raising and lowering your shades a simple, quiet part of your day.

TouchLift cordless simplicity.

This cordless system allows you to raise or lower the shade with a gentle touch on the bottom rail. It creates a clean appearance and remains easy to reach in most rooms.

Convenient PowerWand movement.

PowerWand provides motorized convenience using a discreet, rechargeable button wand. It is a perfect solution for those who want smooth, powered movement without needing a smartphone or complex app integration.

A closer look

Finishing touches for your windows.

Details like your bottom rail and top treatment refine the finished shade. We ensure every component matches the style of your home for a clean, cohesive look.

Elegant cassette and fascia options.

Choose a square or curved cassette to conceal the fabric roll for a modern finish. A fascia offers a sleek, minimal profile that complements your existing window trim and interior style.

Clean bottom rail finishes.

Select from varied bottom rail profiles to add weight and a crisp edge to your shades. We also offer two-on-one headrails for larger windows, maintaining easy, independent operation for each shade.

Minimize gaps with light blocks.

When privacy is the priority, add side channels to reduce light seepage. We review your specific window frame and mount to ensure these additions fit seamlessly into your space.

A closer look

Custom-fit design

Every shade is made to fit your specific window measurements. We plan the mounting carefully so your hardware, fabric and trim work together for a clean and functional result.

Inside or outside mounting.

An inside mount offers a recessed, minimal look. If you prefer more light coverage or need to clear handles, an outside mount provides a beautiful, tailored fit over your window casing.

Enjoy calm, dark rooms.

Blackout fabrics create peaceful, dim environments. For maximum effect, we look at the entire window area to reduce light gaps, ensuring the shade performs exactly as you intend for sleep.

Automation and shading choices

Selecting the right window covering involves balancing light, privacy, and ease of use. Our Edmonton workroom crafts custom drapery and Roman shades to suit your home.

Automation Options

Bring ease to your home with automation. Choose BLISS or Somfy systems to manage your shades effortlessly, tailored to your smart-home preferences and how you use each window in your home.

Blackout Performance

For bedrooms needing darkness, explore high-performance options like Zen Blackout and Queenland Blackout. These fabrics manage light effectively, though remember that hardware and mounting choices also impact the overall light-blocking results.

Omni Controls

The Omni bottomrail offers a refined finish for your shades. Whether you prefer a curved or flat aesthetic, this detail ensures your window treatments look polished and operate smoothly in any room.

Frequently asked

What is the difference between regular and reverse roll?

Regular roll sits closest to the glass. Reverse roll brings the fabric in front of the tube, creating a sleeker profile that conceals the hardware. We help you choose based on your window depth.

How does the TouchLift system work?

TouchLift allows you to adjust the shade by gently pulling on the bottom rail. It remains in any position you set, making it a simple, cordless solution for most rooms in your home.

Do I need a phone to use PowerWand?

No. PowerWand is a rechargeable, button-operated control that is completely independent. It is ideal if you want powered, effortless movement without needing a smart-home system or phone app.

Can I have two shades on one window?

Yes. Two-on-one arrangements place two independent shades on a single headrail. This is perfect for large windows, allowing you to control the light on each side of the opening separately.

Are Panel Tracks similar to roller shades?

They share similar fabric options, but Panel Tracks glide horizontally. They are an excellent choice for wide sliding doors where you want side-to-side movement instead of a vertical roll.

How do we start a project in Edmonton?

Book an appointment with our Edmonton showroom. We will review your windows, discuss your fabric preferences and plan the perfect fit together, ensuring everything is ready for a professional, stress-free installation.

Are these child-safe?

Yes. We prioritize cordless and motorized systems that eliminate external lift cords. We discuss your specific household needs during our consultation to ensure your window coverings are safe for everyone.

How should I clean my roller shades?

Lightly dust the fabric with a clean cloth or vacuum using a soft brush attachment. Avoid harsh chemicals or submersing the shades in water, as this can damage the fabric and mechanical components.

How To Prepare

Virtual | In-store
