Solutions
Every home is unique, and so are its window covering needs. Whether you're looking for enhanced privacy, energy efficiency, child safety, or a solution for specialty-shaped windows, there’s a perfect option available. From innovative honeycomb shades to custom blackout solutions, the right window treatment can provide both function and style. Explore our tailored solutions below to find the perfect fit for your space—and if you need expert guidance, we're here to help.
Privacy: Top-Down/Bottom-Up
Looking for a way to increase privacy in your home and keep natural light flowing through your windows? Choose a top-down/bottom-up honeycomb shade by Alta. These shades allow you to keep the bottom portion of your window covered while letting plenty of natural light through the upper half, thanks to a travelling or middle rail that you can raise and lower. With the lower portion of the window covered, you are able to see over the shade outside, but from street level, it is impossible to see in. You can also cover the entire window, and take advantage of our light diffusing fabrics to let natural light continue to shine through, but still get privacy. Thanks to the top-down/bottom-up design, you can also raise the entire honeycomb shade up from the bottom sill just like with traditional window treatments. These shades are available in light diffusing fabrics, or room darkening for bedrooms and media rooms.
Specialty-Shaped Windows
Windows come in all shapes and sizes, and speciality-shaped windows like triangles, arches, and eyebrow windows add a unique charm to homes. We offer shaped shades that can perfectly cover these windows; using light diffusing fabrics, you can even let light in as your windows are covered. These shades are beautiful, elegant, and designed to offer you a perfect balance between privacy and natural light. They are also offered in room-darkening fabrics. They are often non-operable, which means they will remain in the same position, but they will allow for better temperature control in those hot, south-facing windows, or will darken a bedroom if required.
Room Darkening And Blackout Shades
Whether you need to sleep while it’s light out or you simply prefer to have the option to darken your room during the day, room darkening or blackout shades are the perfect solution. Light is like water; it flows into a room even if there are shades. Our room darkening and blackout shades can be designed to limit the flow of light into the room. We can install custom channels around the shade and inside the window frame to improve the room darkening qualities of your shades. We can also design custom drapery to further darken the room for people who are especially sensitive to light while sleeping. Want to get your room as dark as possible during the day? Trust Blind Ambitions!
Child And Pet Safety
Curtains, drapes, blinds, and all of the window coverings we offer here at Blind Ambitions are designed with health and safety in mind. We offer cordless and motorized window coverings to ensure the well-being of children and pets. These window treatments are easy to open and close and aesthetically pleasing; the perfect combination of luxury and safety!
Energy Efficiency
With the right window treatments, you can enjoy a more beautiful, more energy efficient home. Honeycomb shades - sometimes called cellular shades - are our recommendation for homeowners who are looking to maximize energy savings. These shades are constructed with a minimum of two layers of fabric that form cells in the shape of a honeycomb. The honeycombs keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, improving comfort and reducing your heating and cooling bills!
Over-Sized Or Large Windows
Oversized and large windows add incredible character to a home, letting plenty of natural light in and providing an exceptional view of the world outside your house. Window treatments designed to be applied to oversized and large windows give you greater light control and privacy. Shades of virtually any style can be applied to large windows if they have vertical mullions (the bars that divide windows into smaller sections). We can butt two or more shades together, allowing us to apply a wide array of different window coverings to your window.
We also have a number of shades available in wide widths if you want a single window covering. Honeycomb shades, roller shades, and shutters can all be used on large windows.
Garden Or Sliding Doors
Garden doors and sliding doors can benefit immensely from window coverings; drapery is a particularly great option for framing a doorway. In most cases, we opt for window coverings that cover the entire door from above the frame. We may use vertical blinds that stack to one side, continuous drapery, or another window covering solution that suits your aesthetics. We can even use two or more shades in tandem; we have unique solutions for sliding doors of all sizes!
Tilt & Turn Windows
European-style tilt & turn windows are built to move; we have window treatments that are built to move right along with them. Our favourite covering for tilt & turn windows is the Duette Honeycomb line from Hunter Douglas. These shades are attached directly to the frame of the window, allowing them to move with the window when it’s tilting or turning. As an added bonus, these honeycomb shades keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter!
