How long will it take to manufacture my window treatments?

Do you offer anything to cover my windows while my order is being made?

Manufacturing Questions
Where do you manufacture your products?

We manufacture some of the products in Ontario, California and some products are manufactured elsewhere, either out of the state or out of the country.


How long will it take to manufacture my product?

Shutters typically take anywhere between 3 to 6 weeks to manufacture. Shades and Blinds will take between 3 to 5 weeks. If you need a rush order, please let your design consultant know.


What kind of wood do you use for shutters and blinds?

We use Basswood for all of our wood shutters and wood blinds. Basswood is native to North America and it has a rich grain that’s free of knots, making it a beautiful choice for window treatments.


What are Poly shutters made of?

Our poly shutters are made of Polyethylene which is extruded with an aluminum-magnesium core. This results in a shutter that is 20 times stronger than regular wood. It’s also fireproof and resistant to moisture and extreme temperature variations. It will not fade, chip, or warp.


Why is it taking longer than expected to make my order?

We source raw materials for our blinds, shades, and shutters from all over the world. Occasionally there may be a delay due to port congestion, holidays, and other geopolitical issues. We try our best to identify any delay so that we can get ahead of it. This may require rescheduling an installation date based on availability of the material.


What if I want to change something?

You should contact us immediately. They’ll be able to change the quote if necessary and coordinate with production for any changes to your order. Keep in mind that any change requests may be declined if there is not enough advance notice.


Deposits, Payments, and Refunds
Why do I have to pay a deposit?

A deposit of at least 50% of the total invoice is required to begin manufacturing. This covers the cost of materials and ensures that both parties are invested in the project.


Is my deposit refundable?

Deposits are non-refundable.


This is taking longer than expected. Can I cancel my order?

Yes, you can, however your deposit will not be refunded. We always advise our clients of any expected or potential delays so that installation can be rescheduled as soon as possible


When do I need to pay the balance on my invoice?

We require you to pay the balance of your invoice at the time of installation. If you prefer to pay sooner, that’s acceptable as well.


What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept Cash, Checks, Credit Cards, Wire, and Zelle. If you’re unsure about any payment method, please contact us.


Can I pay my invoice in full?

Yes you can. Please let us know.


Do you offer a refund if I don’t like my window treatments?

We stand by everything we make and are stubborn about high quality in pursuit of perfection. Your window treatments are custom made-to-order, and non-refundable. However, we always go above and beyond and try our best to make sure you’re satisfied with your order. If something isn’t right, we’ll work with you to make it right.

Installation Warranty, and Repairs
When will you install my window treatments?

Installations are scheduled when your order is near completion. The installation time varies depending on order volume and capacity but is usually within a week of product completion.



How long will installation take?

Our professional installation team is the best in the business. They are swift, precise, and efficient. When we schedule an installation date, we will give you an estimated time span for the installation.


Do I need to move my furniture?

Yes if needed. Our installers will need a minimum 2 feet of clearance around the window where installation is taking place.


Do I need to be present for the installation?

We advise all of our clients to be present for their installation. However, it is not mandatory. At the time of installation, we require that arrangements be made to allow access to the premises and to pay any balance remaining on the invoice


Who do I pay on the day of installation?

We will collect the final payment on the day of the installation.


Will you remove my existing window treatments prior to installation?

We charge a removal fee for this service. We will be able to add this amount to your quote or may even waive the fee.
