  • About Us

Shop by Challenge

Your indoor environment is a living, breathing space and we understand that each comes with its own demands as well as with specific challenges for each and every work/living space. That’s why at Shadesco we offer our Shop-by-Challenge Service. Simply stated our Shop-by-Challenge Service allows you the opportunity to take advantage of our professional experience, benefit from our professional expertise and use our previous cases to address current interior issues you may be facing now. Large opening dominating a small space? Small, multiple openings swallowed by an out of proportion interior? Not enough natural light or perhaps a bit too much? These are only some of the minor issues you may be struggling with that can be easily addressed with our Shop-by-Challenge Service, allowing you more time to focus on your other concerns. Here is a brief listing of additional challenges we regularly address with a sampling of the solutions offered with our Shop-by-Challenge Service.

Disruptive Glare Reduction

Uncomfortable glare can disrupt your productivity and become a nuisance. We offer a wide variety of affordable products, such as solar, cellular and tinted shades, that will effectively address this issue and put an end to that nagging glare factor.

Oversized Window Openings

A common design challenge that requires bold solutions but can tend to limit your design options. We offer a variety of selections including motorized solutions, solar shades or drapes and we can offer these in a number of flattering styles so that you won’t be constrained when it comes to selecting exactly what your room needs.

Child-proof Choices

We know that your family is your number one priority. When it comes to children in the home, safety must always come first. Cords, chains and motors are magnets for young hands but we have the experience and the knowledge to insure that any and all window treatments installed in your home will be Child-Proof. In addition, we offer a child-safety clip for any and all cord/chain devices which we are happy to install for you FREE OF CHARGE so that you can enjoy using our window coverings with complete peace of mind.

Optimize Your Indoor Temperature Efficiently

With our energy-efficient products you can significantly reduce your energy consumption, save on heating and A/C costs and manage your indoor comfort with ease.

Lower Your Energy Costs

The reduction of solar heat that pours through your window openings (known as Solar Heat Gain Coeffient or SHGC) can significantly impact your energy costs during those long, hot NY summers as well as provide you with the daily relief from harmful UV rays.

Eco-friendly Solutions

We are committed to the environment so almost all of our products are PVC free and 100% recyclable and all of our solar shades have the Greenguard Certification, maintaining the highest standard of indoor air quality for your health and well-being.

Optimize Your Indoor Temperature Efficiently

With our energy-efficient products you can significantly reduce your energy consumption, save on heating and A/C costs and manage your indoor comfort with ease.

Unique Window Design

Whether its arches, ovals or octagons, NYC living/working spaces are known for their unique design features and pre-war buildings often offer quirky challenges to interior designers. We have the experience to address these indoor issues with a wide variety of solutions that will not only provide you with the comfort you require but also offer all the light-filtering, energy-efficiency and privacy that you desire.

Reduce the Noise and Insulate

Perhaps one of the most common of challenges, the proper liner and interliner for your drape fabrics can offer a significant reduction in ambient street noise and provide you and your family with a great deal of comforting quiet as well.

Budget Friendly

We are open to any budget and feel confident that we can provide the best solutions for your space that will allow you to focus on other concerns while still getting all the comfort you deserve.

Privacy is a Priority

In a teeming metropolis like NYC sometimes your neighbors can be a little too close for comfort. Here at Shadesco we understand and respect the need for privacy and can offer a huge range of options to provide our clients with all the privacy they require.

Blackout Requirements

If you’re one of the many residents that require room darkening or even blackout shades then we can accommodate you as all of our shades come with a room/darkening/blackout option and all of our softer treatments, like drapes or roman shades, come with that option as well.

Control Your View

Not all of our great city’s view are spectacular and a common challenge is to “block” a sometimes unsightly outdoor view while still maintaining a design aesthetic that pleases the eye. At Shadesco we have the experience and the know-how and we’re confident that we can find solutions that will add to your daily comfort and ease.

Protect Your Furnishings

Harmful UV rays can cause fading and discoloration of your furnishings but at Shadesco we have a range of solutions to effectively protect your furnishings from untimely damage. With window tinting, solar shades or cellular shades, UV rays need never be a problem for your home.

Simple to Maintain

Cleaning and maintenance are a reality and at Shadesco we always recommend the fastest, simplest and best methods to maintain all of our products and instruct all our clients on the best methods of use. Cleaning is a reality but it need not be a chore.

Enjoy Both Your View And Your Privacy

NYC livings often offer striking urban vistas and we know that it’s important to integrate these wonderful views with your need for privacy in this sometimes cramped city. At Shadesco we also know that you can enjoy the best of both without giving up either. Allow us to share with you the numerous options we have that can not only meet this challenge but exceed your expectations.

Skylights Pose Problems

Skylights can add stunning elements of drama and beauty to your space but it can also be difficult to regulate the light and heat from these huge openings. Not only do we have the experience but we have a range of choices, from roman skylights to rollers and cellular, that will fit your needs and attractively compliment your living arrangements.

Difficult Décor

From traditional to hi-tech, modern to minimal we at Shadesco are always eager to collaborate with our clients so that we can create a unique, functional window covering solution that adds to your home or office décor without becoming a distraction. We look forward to working with our clients and of course our FREE ON SITE CONSULTATION is the best way to start this process and then tackle this challenge.

Security Concerns

Did you know that certain window treatments can help to prevent break-ins? Our 8mm window tint can offer another important layer of protection for your home or office even as it provides daily comfort and ease.

Protect Your Valuable Artwork

Over time sunlight and the harmful UV rays that come with it can irreparably damage or diminish the value of your most precious works of art. With our solar shades you can effectively achieve between 75%-99% blockage of these destructive rays without giving up any of the beauty of the natural light you desire. Be smart and protect your art!

Can I Control My Shades With My Smart Phone?

The short answer is- You certainly can! Using our smart home automation system by Somfy you can easily and effectively control your window coverings with your smartphone or tablet device from almost anywhere in the world.
