Art Window Coverings
Style and substance plus the latest trend—motorized shades
Window treatments are one of the most enticing ways of adding style and beauty to a room, but they also add substance as well, performing as sun blockers, privacy enhancers and sound diffusers. And one of Northern Ohio’s leading providers of these invaluable products, and an authority on how to select and install them, is Art Window Coverings of Cleveland.
Art Window Coverings is a full-service provider of interior window treatments including shades, draperies and blinds, for both new construction and retrofitting. Motorized shades are being requested more frequently by Art Windows’ clients and there are a wide range of choices from multiple name-brand vendors. While draperies are fabricated in its own on-site workroom, allowing the company to create its custom drapery from the beginning of the design process through installation, its many other products are from such well-regarded, high-quality manufacturers as Hunter Douglas, Graber, Levolor/Kirsch, and MechoShade.
Diverse services
For more than three-quarters of a century, since 1923, when roll-ups were the only game in town, Art Window Coverings has been providing window treatments for commercial establishments and institutional buildings, as well as homes. Today, it fabricates and customizes outstanding window treatments to create any look, or meet any use, a customer might want, using a highly experienced veteran staff of crafts workers. Art Window Coverings also cleans and repairs shades and blinds for educational and healthcare facilities and residential structures. The firm can handle window treatments in all sizes and locations, with pick-up and professional installation available from a staff of qualified installers. Its Perkins Avenue showroom in Cleveland displays a wide variety of drapery, shade and blind options, with a staff of designers ready to offer their expertise. From this central location, Art Window can meet the needs of customers in a four-state area.
