Custom Shades in Franklin

Franklin’s homes span a wide range of architectural styles – from historic downtown residences to newer construction on the south side and our custom shade program is designed to look right in all of them. Our zebra shades are a particularly versatile choice for Franklin homeowners: the alternating sheer and solid fabric banding gives you complete control over light and privacy throughout the day without the mechanical bulk of horizontal blinds or the visual heaviness of draperies. They come in a range of neutral and coordinating fabric tones that work across both traditional and contemporary interiors. For Franklin homeowners with south- or west-facing rooms that receive strong afternoon sun, our Sunbrella shades offer a solution that genuinely holds up over time. Sunbrella’s UV-resistant, solution-dyed fabric resists fading far beyond standard interior fabrics, protecting both the shade itself and the flooring and furniture behind it. We also carry motorized shade options for Franklin clients who want to automate their window treatments – a particularly useful feature in rooms with multiple windows or windows positioned over furniture that makes manual adjustment awkward. All shades are custom-made for your Franklin windows and installed by our team.

Custom Blinds in Franklin

Franklin’s mix of historic character and growing new construction makes our custom blinds collection a natural fit for the community. In Franklin’s older homes with distinctive millwork and hardwood floors, our real wood blinds can be stained and finished to coordinate with existing woodwork reinforcing the craftsmanship of the home rather than detracting from it. Our wood blind finishes range from light natural tones to rich espresso stains, and we can match to paint or stain samples your bring to your consultation. For Franklin homeowners updating bathrooms, kitchens, or utility spaces, faux wood blinds deliver the same warm aesthetic as real wood with complete moisture resistance ideal in high-humidity environments where real wood would eventually show signs of wear. Aluminum blinds are a clean, modern option for home offices or secondary bedrooms in Franklin where minimal styling is preferred. Every blind we install in Franklin is measured independently for each window and installed by our own team with no subcontractors. Our lifetime guarantee covers every installation.

Custom Plantation Shutters in Franklin

There’s a reason plantation shutters feel right in Franklin – a city that values craftsmanship, history, and things built to last. Our custom plantation shutters are exactly that: built to the specific dimensions of your window, installed to a perfect fit, and engineered to function flawlessly for decades. In Franklin’s historic homes, real wood shutters add a period-appropriate architectural detail that complements original millwork and trim beautifully. In newer Franklin builds, composite shutters deliver a clean, modern look with excellent durability. Plantation shutters work especially well in Franklin homes with double-hung windows and traditional room layouts – the classic configuration where shutters operate in two independent panels to provide separate control of the upper and lower window. The 2.5″ louver, popular in Franklin’s more traditional homes, gives a refined, tailored appearance that references the architectural heritage of the area without feeling outdated. All shutters are installed by The Window Valet’s own team and covered by our lifetime workmanship guarantee.

For Franklin homeowners with south- or west-facing outdoor spaces that become uncomfortable in the afternoon, exterior shades are the most effective solution available blocking radiant heat at the source rather than managing it after it enters the space.
