Windows considered as carefully as the home.

Give custom-home clients window coverings that belong in their design. Morningside works with builders on tailored drapery, blinds, shades and motorization packages. Our builder partnership includes free show-home drapery, a design-studio display and partner-only pricing with room for your own markup.

A package for this home.

A custom plan deserves more than a standard shade in every room. We help match coverings to the architecture, daylight and client preferences, with a clear selection process your team can include in the build.

Workroom and shade expertise.

Our Edmonton workroom makes custom drapery and Roman shades. We pair those fabric choices with branded blinds, shades and motorized options where they suit the room, keeping the layers and hardware coordinated.

A partnership you can offer.

Free show-home drapery and a design-studio display help clients picture the result. Partner-only pricing lets you include window coverings in your own upgrade offer and set a markup that works for your business.

Working together

Finish the home, not just the construction.

Clients have spent months choosing materials and planning how their home will feel. Window coverings should belong in that conversation. We help your team bring fabric, privacy and operation into the design early, rather than leave the homeowner with bare windows and another project after possession.

  1. 01

    Begin with the design.

    Share the plans and the rooms that matter most to your client. We discuss light, privacy, fabric direction and the architecture together. Early conversations help identify windows where shade choices, drapery tracks or motorization need coordination with the wider build.

  2. 02

    Make the selections clear.

    We help your client and design team compare materials and room-by-room options. A display in your design studio supports those decisions alongside the home's other finishes. We provide the partner pricing so you can present a clear window-covering package with your own markup.

  3. 03

    Coordinate the finished installation.

    Once selections are approved, we confirm dimensions, mounting details and the scope with your team. Fabrication and installation are planned around the actual build progress. Electrical preparation and any specialist integration are agreed early rather than discovered when the coverings arrive.

Working together

Different rooms deserve different answers.

Keep a coherent palette without choosing the same covering everywhere.

Drapery for the main living spaces.

Full-height drapery can soften a large living room and connect with the home's fabric palette. Sheers and lined panels offer different light and privacy choices.

We help choose the heading, fabric and track together, with room for the panels to open properly rather than crowd the view or a frequently used door.

Explore the options

Bedroom privacy and light control.

Bedrooms often need more evening privacy and darker mornings than the rest of the home. Blackout shades, lined drapery or a combination may suit the client's priorities.

We explain what each layer does and where edge gaps can still admit light. A blackout fabric is not a promise that every fitted window becomes completely dark.

Explore the options

Roman shades and everyday windows.

A Roman shade brings a tailored fabric finish to a smaller room or a window where full-length drapery is not the right fit. Roller, cellular and other shades offer different looks and operation.

We compare the alternatives by room, so the kitchen, study and guest rooms still feel connected to the wider design.

Explore the options

Working together

Plan for the architecture while there is time.

Window decisions can affect more than the fabric choice.

Large windows and hard-to-reach openings.

Tall glazing and wide openings need products suited to their dimensions. Some windows work better with several coverings than one oversized shade.

We review the available ranges and operation with your team. The client's view, access for installation and future use all matter alongside the appearance.

Explore the options

Motorization and smart-home plans.

Motorized drapery and shades can make a custom home easier to use, especially where manual operation is awkward. We compare the controls available for the selected products.

Power and smart-home compatibility are discussed with the builder, electrician and integrator before final decisions. Not every manufacturer or motor connects to every system.

Explore the options

Tracks, recesses and layered coverings.

Ceiling-mounted drapery, recessed tracks and shades behind panels need space to work together. We can discuss the intended finish while ceiling and wall details are still being planned.

Your builder confirms the supporting construction and site conditions. We confirm the covering and hardware details within our agreed scope, rather than assume a photograph proves the fit.

Working together

A custom-home offer your clients can choose.

Make window coverings part of the purchase conversation.

Show-home drapery, provided free.

We provide free drapery for builder-partner show homes. The fabric and finish are planned with you to show how a completed window complements the home's architecture.

We identify any additional blinds, motors or services separately, so your team can see what is included in the show-home arrangement.

A design-studio display.

We provide a display where your clients can compare materials as they choose the rest of their home finishes. A clear selection range helps them decide what they want in each room.

If their interior designer is involved, we can work with that direction too. The display supports the conversation; it does not limit every home to one fixed look.

Explore the options

Partner pricing and the home purchase.

Partner-only pricing allows you to set your own selling price and earn a product margin. You can offer the selected coverings as part of the home purchase rather than a separate post-possession order.

Including the cost in a mortgage remains subject to the purchase agreement and the client's lender. We provide window coverings, not financing.

Custom Home Builders FAQs

Common questions

Answers for homeowners, designers, property managers and builders. Not listed here? Email or call and we will help.

Do you work on one-off custom homes?

Yes. We can develop the window-covering package around an individual home rather than a standard floor plan. The architecture, room use and client selections guide the product choices.

Can you work with our client's interior designer?

Yes. We can coordinate fabrics, shade finishes and hardware with the designer's room concept. Your client and design team remain involved in the appearance while we help resolve the window-covering details.

Can we offer drapery and shades in the same package?

Yes. We make custom drapery and Roman shades in Edmonton and supply branded blinds and shades. Different rooms can use different products while sharing a considered palette.

When should we discuss motorized coverings?

Early in the design is best, particularly where power or a recessed track is planned. We review selected-product requirements with your team before the electrical and finish work is complete.

Do custom home builders receive free show-home drapery?

Yes. The builder partnership offer includes free drapery for your show homes. We agree the fabric direction and the show-home scope together; other coverings and services are identified separately.

Can you provide a display in our design studio?

Yes. We provide a display to support client selections. We plan it around the materials and window-covering choices you want to offer with your homes.

Can we make a margin on the products?

Yes. Partner-only pricing allows you to set your own client-facing prices and markup. The product costs and included services are confirmed in the partnership quotation; there is no universal promised margin.

Can the window-covering cost be included in the client's mortgage?

You can offer the package within the home purchase. Mortgage inclusion depends on the client's agreement and lender approval. It is not a financing guarantee from Morningside.

Do you handle Calgary custom-home enquiries?

Yes, Calgary projects can begin with a remote discussion with our Edmonton team. We confirm sample, measuring, delivery and installation arrangements for the actual project address.

What if the window sizes change during construction?

We review the change before proceeding with the order. Final measurements and approved details are required before manufacture; a plan-based early quote does not remove that step.

Personal guidance, at no cost.

How To Prepare

Virtual | In-store

To make the most of your consultation, it helps to have a general sense of your window or door width, ceiling height and how you would like the covering to operate. Photos of the space are helpful but not required. If you are early in the process, that is fine. We will guide you through it.
