How much do custom blinds, shades, and shutters cost in Lancaster?

Custom window treatments usually range from about $100 to over $1,000 per window. The price depends on the product, window size, material, operating system, motorization, and number of windows, so an exact quote needs the actual windows measured. That is why Made in the Shade Lancaster includes a free in-home consultation — we bring the mobile showroom to you, measure every window, show samples in your home's real light, and tailor the quote to your project.

What window treatments are best for a Lancaster winter?

Cellular (honeycomb) shades are the top choice. Their honeycomb cells trap a layer of air at the glass, which slows the heat loss that drafty Lancaster winters cause through poorly covered windows, and helps lower your heating bill through the cold months. Plantation shutters add a second insulating layer, a classic look for historic Lancaster homes, and most of our products carry a limited lifetime warranty.

Do you work on historic and older Lancaster homes?

Yes. Lancaster County has many historic and Pennsylvania Dutch farmhouse homes, and we custom-fit every treatment to their odd-sized and specialty windows. Plantation shutters and custom drapery suit their character, while insulating shades improve comfort and energy use. We measure each window precisely so the fit and the style match the home.

Do your window treatments help with energy bills in every season?

Yes. Cellular shades insulate against drafty winters and cut summer heat gain, and solar shades block the sun's heat and up to 99% of UV on bright windows. Better thermal performance at the window helps lower your energy bills through humid summers and cold winters. We help you match the right product to each window and exposure during your free consultation.

Are you locally owned, and can my shades be motorized?

Yes on both. Made in the Shade Lancaster is locally owned and operated, an independently owned franchise with a showroom at 3039 Columbia Ave in Lancaster — or we bring the showroom to you. Our motorized shades let you raise and lower tall or hard-to-reach windows by app or schedule. You work with a local team from the first sample to the final install.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very happy with the experience, however,  I wish the material was a little bit heavier, because the light shines through. I was offered room darkening fabric but didn't realize how thin the fabric would be.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The entire process was very easy. My window treatments are beautiful and exactly what I wanted. They arrived when promised and professionally installed. They probably cost a bit more than the big box stores but the quality of the product and efficiency of the process were well worth it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Made in the Shade of Lancaster is a great company. Christa came to my home with numerous samples and options for new shades for my great room. She was so easy to work with and discussed the pros and cons of various styles making it much easier to choose. She measured my windows (this is a room with a very high ceiling), and went through color options,  etc.
When my shades came in, they scheduled an installation time and Kim did a fabulous job with the installation.  The shades are high quality and beautiful. Made in the shade of Lancaster is fantastic and I highly recommend them!
