How do I choose the right Hunter Douglas window treatment for my home?

To choose the right Hunter Douglas window treatment, consider light control, privacy needs, room function, and aesthetics. Explore shades, blinds, or shutters in our window treatment store and ask one of our design specialists to find the best fit for your home's style and requirements.

Do you provide design consultation services to help clients choose custom window treatments?

Yes, our owners are window treatment experts and offer consultations and free estimates during and after regular business hours. We'll even come to you; ask us about in-home appointments.

What is the process for purchasing and having Hunter Douglas window treatments installed?

You can schedule an appointment to discuss window treatment ideas with us at our location or yours. After you select, our team members will measure your windows accurately and efficiently. When your order is ready, we'll bring it to your home and install it.

How does Hunter Douglas ensure child and pet safety in their blinds and shades?

Hunter Douglas ensures child and pet safety with features like cordless designs, retractable cords, and motorized options. Their custom window treatments include safety certification and innovative mechanisms to prevent entanglement.

Can I get custom shutters for my unique window shapes and sizes?

Yes, Hunter Douglas offers custom shutters for unique window shapes and sizes. Their range includes options for archesskylights, and other custom designs.

Can Hunter Douglas window treatments be motorized and integrated with smart home systems?

Hunter Douglas window treatments can be motorized and integrated with smart home systems. Their PowerView® Automation controls your shades via a remote, mobile app, or voice commands when integrated with smart home systems like Amazon Alexa.

Are Hunter Douglas cellular shades tax deductible?

Duette® Cellular Shades may be tax deductible. They meet the energy efficiency standards required for certain tax credits because they have a high R-value, which enhances insulation and energy savings.

What customer concerns do you address?

Most of our calls involve issues like replacing old blinds, and we excel at helping customers find more energy-efficient window coverings. Our services include providing child- and pet-safe custom window treatments for odd-shaped windows.

What solutions do you recommend the most to your clients?

Every situation is different. We start by listening and observing the situation. Once we have a fair amount of knowledge, we discuss the pros and cons of available window treatment ideas.

Can you share an innovative solution you came up with for a client?

A good example is clients wanting a fresher look for their sliding glass door. One option is to install a single shade over the slider that comes down from the top. Alternatively, we could install two shades on one headrail above the slider, providing two separate, functional shades. However, a large shade coming down over a slider can be problematic, especially if you have kids or pets.

The ideal solution is a shade that moves across the door like the slider without an outdated vertical blind look. We offer several options, from tropical bamboo to modern sliding blinds. Our sales consultant can visit your home with samples to show you how they look with your lighting, furniture, and decor.

What are the top custom window treatment trends?

Top trends in California include energy efficiency and smart home technology. We're proud to offer the most energy-efficient product on the market: Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades are the most sought-after in the industry.

Why should someone contact Affordable Blind Solutions instead of another custom window treatment company in the area?

We guarantee the best prices in the area, saving our customers money. Additionally, we offer mobile repair services for most window coverings. Our team members thoroughly discuss all aspects of our products to ensure a happy result. If issues arise, we listen to our clients and address problems before they escalate.

Our customers agree that we're the best—we've won Best Window Coverings in the county for the past seven years and 20 out of the last 24 years! Unlike our competitors, we don't use subcontractors; our dedicated employees handle our sales and installations.
