Roller shades for light, privacy and view.
Roller shades create a clean, simple look for your home. We guide you through choosing the perfect fabric for your light and privacy needs, then ensure every shade fits.
A finish that suits your room
Choose an open roll for a minimalist feel, or a cassette for a tidy, covered finish. We ensure the hardware works with your window’s depth and handles.
More choice in light and privacy
If you need daytime views and total night-time sleep, consider a dual roller system. It carries two fabrics on one frame.
For simplicity, a single blackout shade works wonders in a bedroom.

Let us help you find the right balance.

We handle the measuring and installation process from start to finish. You can feel confident knowing your shades are being managed by experts.
Measuring and installationTailored Shade Selections
Choose the perfect roller shade for your space. We offer solar screens for glare, blackout textiles for sleep, and versatile dual-layer systems to manage light and privacy exactly how you need.
Solar Openness: 1%, 3% or 5%
Openness refers to the open area in a solar screen weave. A lower percentage filters more glare, while a higher 5% option is more open.
Fabric colour and weave type influence light entry. No label guarantees total night-time privacy or fixed heat reduction.
Drapery and Roman Shades
Looking for a softer finish? Our Edmonton workroom makes custom drapery and sewn Roman shades, bringing texture and gentle folds to rooms where you want both comfort and light control.
Cassette and Hardware Choices
A cassette gives your window a finished look, protecting the fabric roll. Alternatively, choose an open roll if space is tight.
We evaluate your window depth and handle position to ensure the chosen mechanism provides smooth operation and necessary clearance.
Frequently asked
Is there a difference between roller shades and blinds?
They are the same thing. We focus on the features that matter—like the fabric and the operating system—so you get exactly what you need.
What does 3% openness mean?
It describes how much light filters through. We can help you compare samples to see what works best for your view and glare control.
Will I have privacy at night?
Often not with solar screens. We can suggest an added layer or blackout fabric if night-time privacy is a priority.
Does blackout mean complete darkness?
The fabric blocks light, but there may be small gaps. We plan your installation to get the darkness you need for your bedroom.
What is a reverse roll?
It’s just a way for the fabric to come off the front of the tube. It can help clear handles and make your shade look even better.
Are they available with motors?
Yes, we offer smooth motorized options. We’ll help you choose the right power and control so they are simple to use.
Is there a width limit?
It depends on the fabric and system. We check your windows first to ensure every shade performs reliably over time.
How long is the wait?
It varies by order. We’ll give you a clear timeline when you order so you know exactly when to expect your new shades.

"I didn’t realize how much difference good drapery could make until these arrived. The fabric feels substantial but airy — it softens the whole room. Measuring was simple, and the fit is exact."
