Privacy

No matter where you are in your home, you never want to feel exposed or vulnerable. Window treatments are a powerful tool in building a sense of privacy at home, and that includes in the garage. While this room may not require the privacy needed in a bathroom or bedroom, this space can benefit from window treatments near City of Industry to keep your garage more private from nosey neighbors.

Energy Efficiency

Every exposed window in your home, no matter what room it's in, is a vulnerability in your home's overall energy efficiency, as it allows for unwanted energy loss. By covering all windows, including garage windows, you'll not only save energy, but you'll also lower energy costs and ensure a comfortable home environment is maintained year-round.

Security

For many California homeowners, valuable items are stored in the garage. Garage window treatments protect those items from the leering eyes of would-be perpetrators. You can take the protection to the next level with systems like PowerView® Automation, which has automated scheduling options to ensure your shades or blinds for garage windows are never left without a covering.

UV Protection

UV in natural sunlight can damage a number of household items, from flooring to wall paint, if they are left exposed to natural sunlight for an extended period of time. Protect the items in your garage with shades or blinds for garage windows that can control the incoming light and UV rays.

Cohesive Household Aesthetic

For a polished look throughout your home, cohesion needs to happen to carry design from room to room. Don't forget the garage in this aesthetic planning, or your final home design will feel incomplete. By incorporating garage shades and blinds into your garage that complement the rest of your home, you’ll have to have a cohesive look throughout.

Top Shades & Blinds for Garage Windows

Blinds

We love using blinds for garage windows because they are durable, easy to clean, and offer a wide range of lighting options for those who work in the space. Hunter Douglas EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds and Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds both work well as garage window blinds.

Cellular Shades

We recommend cellular shades as garage window treatments for homeowners who want to prioritize energy efficiency in their garages because of their unmatched insulating abilities.

Roller Shades

Depending on the amount of sun coming into your garage, Designer Roller Shades or Designer Solar Shades could be top contenders for your new garage window treatments.
