BLINDS
Chances are slim that you'll find anyone more knowledgeable than
Roy and his Technicians about the technical ups and downs of every
blind and shade ever made. And, you most definitely won't find anyone
fussier about installation.
Horizontal Aluminum Blinds
Usually the least expensive custom treatment, custom aluminum blinds
offer
style and practicality. Slat sizes are available anywhere from 1/2"
to 3" and are available in a myriad of colours. Textures range from
high gloss to a matte finish that has the soft, luxurious look and feel
of suede.
The functional beauty of blinds is that they can be tilted to allow whatever
amount of light, privacy, and ventilation you desire at a given time. In
some models, the slats are tight enough to block out up to 99% of visual
light.
The elimination of lift cords in some blinds increases the safety factor,
important where there are children. Blind length is adjusted simply by
raising and lowering the bottom rail.

Horizontal Wood Blinds
The
elegant beauty of wood blinds will give your home a feeling of warmth and
luxury. Crafted from cherry, oak, maple, ash, pine or basswood, they are
available in 1" and 2" slats that have proven strong, warp resistant,
and easy to clean.
Whether richly stained or flawlessly painted, the wooden slats are coated
with clear protective lacquer and buffed to a lustrous finish. The perfect
alternative to shutters.

Vertical Blinds
Vertical
blinds provide excellent light control are perfect for large or small windows,
French doors, patio doors and bay windows. The image at left shows how
they can be custom-fitted to an arched window.
Like horizontal blinds, verticals can be tilted to allow
just the right amount of privacy, ventilation, and sunlight to enter the
room, and like the draperies, they can drawn away from the window.
Custom vertical blinds are available in a wide range of materials
including aluminum, wood, vinyl and fabric.
At right are examples of wood verticals. Run you mouse over
the image to see a lighter wood.
You
can even laminate the vanes with your own fabric or wallpaper. Such versatility
means they can be designed to complement any décor, from the most casual
to the most traditional. And, because they come with their own valances,
your windows will always have a nicely finished look.
