Choosing Window Treatments for New Homes

Getting a new home is complicated, with many decisions to make and many details to consider. Because of their value to the home, window treatments should be at the top of the list. At Blinds & Designs serving San Francisco, we can help you find the window coverings that will work in your new home at a price you can afford. Here are some things to consider:

Child and Pet Safety

While all of our window covering options have safety features for children and pets, some go way above and beyond accepted safety standards. From wand operation to cordless systems to motorization, all of our blinds and shades can be customized for maximum safety without sacrificing style.

Energy Efficiency

Hunter Douglas offers many stylish window treatments that allow you to save on energy costs. Vignette shades, including classic roman shades, as well as Duette honeycomb shades, provide energy efficiency and beauty that works with any décor. Our Architella shades have the highest energy efficiency rating in the industry.

Functionality

Understanding how you need your new window treatments to function is just as important as how they look. How much light and privacy control do you want? Ultimately, finding the balance will play out in how satisfied you’ll be with your window coverings in the future. Operating systems are also important. Motorization is very popular, especially for window treatments in hard-to-reach windows, such as in skylights, in vaulted ceilings, or behind bathtubs.

Style and Design

It’s important that you like the look and feel of your new window treatments in your new home. We will consult with you to understand how you want your new window treatments to complement or enhance the rest of your décor. We’ll help you choose designs, colors, and styles that can work even if you change other elements of your room design. Talk to one of the trained consultants at Blinds & Designs. We’re always happy to help.
