When it comes to creating a home that feels finished, comfortable, and truly yours, few upgrades make as big an impact as the right window treatments. Bare windows may let in light, but they also let in problems — heat loss, glare, faded furniture, and lack of privacy. That’s why homeowners across Colorado Springs turn to professional window coverings.
At Window Covering Gallery, we bring the store to you with custom window treatments and trusted name brands that fit your home, your style, and your budget. Since 1985, we’ve helped homeowners throughout Colorado Springs and El Paso County design window solutions that make every room more functional and beautiful.
If you’ve ever wondered whether new blinds, shades, shutters, or draperies are worth it, this guide will show you the benefits — and why investing in window treatments is one of the smartest decisions you can make for your home.
Why Do You Need Window Treatments?
Window treatments aren’t just about decoration. They’re about solving real problems in your home:
1. Privacy and Security
Open windows are an open invitation to curious neighbors or passersby. Blinds, shades, or curtains let you control who can see into your home — without sacrificing natural light.
2. Energy Efficiency
Colorado’s climate brings hot summers, cold winters, and plenty of sunshine. Professionally fitted window coverings insulate your home, keeping heat in during the winter and blocking harsh sun during the summer. That means lower utility bills and a more comfortable home year-round.
3. Light Control
Whether you need blackout shades for a bedroom, UV-filtering sheers for a sunroom, or adjustable blinds in the living room, window treatments let you customize light levels in every space.
4. Style and Value
Draperies, shutters, and valances add a designer’s touch that elevates your home’s look. They don’t just complement your décor — they add resale value by making your space feel finished.
5. Protection for Furniture and Floors
Sunlight fades upholstery, hardwood floors, and artwork over time. The right coverings shield your investment while keeping your space bright and livable.
Types of Window Treatments Available in Colorado Springs
Every home is different, and so is every homeowner’s style. That’s why we offer a full range of options:
Blinds
Classic, versatile, and easy to use, blinds are a go-to choice. Available in wood, faux wood, aluminum, and vertical designs, they suit everything from traditional to modern homes.
Shades
Soft and functional, shades come in styles like Roman, roller, cellular, and woven wood. They’re ideal for light control and insulation. Cellular shades, for example, trap air in honeycomb-shaped cells, offering excellent energy efficiency.
Shutters
Interior shutters bring timeless elegance. They’re durable, easy to clean, and add value to your home. Plantation shutters are especially popular in Colorado Springs for their blend of charm and practicality.
Draperies and Curtains
Nothing adds warmth and personality like custom draperies. Designed and hand-crafted locally, our drapes, curtains, cornices, and valances are tailored to your exact windows. With endless fabrics and designs, they’re the ultimate way to personalize your home.
Custom Accessories
Cornices, valances, and swags give your windows a polished, designer look. These finishing touches make your treatments unique to your home.
Why Choose Custom Over Store-Bought?
You’ve probably seen low-cost curtains and blinds at big-box stores. While they might seem convenient, they rarely fit correctly, wear out quickly, and lack the personalized design that makes your home stand out.
Here’s why Colorado Springs homeowners choose custom window treatments:
- Perfect Fit: Every window is measured precisely for your coverings.
- Better Quality: Locally hand-crafted draperies and brand-name blinds are built to last.
- Personalized Design: Work with a designer to choose fabrics, styles, and finishes that match your home.
- Professional Installation: No more struggling with uneven rods or gaps in coverage.
- Unique Results: Instead of cookie-cutter solutions, you get window treatments as distinctive as your home.
