Color & Finish

See the Colors at Your Own Windows

From natural wood grains to crisp whites and deep solids, every collection comes in its own range of colors and finishes.

Color reads differently in a showroom than it does in your light. Your consultant will help you compare finishes, tapes, and valances against your walls, floors, and trim before anything is made.

How It Works

Professionally Installed, Start to Finish

Proper installation is almost as important as the product itself. An improperly installed blind can be tough to open and can get damaged easily.

Care & Maintenance

Easy to Keep Looking New

Day-to-day dust and smudges have little power over our easy-care materials.

  • Dust regularly with a soft, clean cloth, a treated dust cloth or mitt, a feather duster, or a blind brush.
  • For deeper cleaning, vacuum gently with a brush attachment.
  • Use compressed air or a hair dryer on the COOL setting to blow off dust and debris.

Blinds FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of blinds does Elizabeth Shutters offer?

We offer four custom blind collections: faux wood, softwood, aluminum, and vertical blinds. Each is made to order for your windows and installed by our professional installation crew.

What is the difference between faux wood and softwood blinds?

Faux wood blinds give you the look of real wood with greater durability at a fraction of the cost, plus the carefree upkeep of vinyl. Softwood blinds are genuine wood, chosen for its natural insulating properties, with cordless options and the Royal Valance standard. Both come in 2-inch, 2.5-inch, and 3-inch slats.

Which blinds are best for kitchens and bathrooms?

Faux wood blinds are ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms because they combine the look of wood with easy-care materials. Aluminum blinds are also a strong choice for hardworking spaces like mudrooms and laundry rooms, and over prep sinks or soaking tubs.

What are the best blinds for sliding glass doors?

Vertical blinds are designed for sliding glass doors and large windows. They offer light-filtering and room-darkening options, and can stack one way, split from the center, reverse stack, or center stack depending on how you use the opening.

Can blinds be motorized?

Yes. Vertical blinds can be motorized with radio (RF) or infra-red (IR) remote options and either battery or direct power. 2-inch aluminum blinds can be tilt-operated with the touch of a button. Ask your consultant about control options for other collections.

What are routless blinds?

Routless blinds eliminate the rout holes in the slats that the lift cords normally pass through. That reduces light leaks, adds privacy, and gives the blind a cleaner appearance.

Do you install the blinds?

Yes. Elizabeth Shutters has a professional installation crew that installs your custom blinds precisely and makes sure each one operates perfectly. Our specialists call to schedule a day and time that works for you.

How do I clean my blinds?

Dust regularly with a soft, clean cloth or duster. For deeper cleaning, vacuum gently with a brush attachment, or use compressed air or a hair dryer on the cool setting to blow off dust and debris.
