Fitting the Perfect Blinds In Your Windows
Finding blinds that fit your window well, both in terms of precise measurements and style, is essential to creating that high-end custom look for your space. Well-fitted custom blinds provide you with improved privacy, better light control, and additional insulation.

At Barrows Custom Window Treatments in Newton, Massachusetts, we carry Hunter Douglas vertical blinds, which are perfect for your tall or wide windows, sliding doors, and more. We can work with you to customize your favorite vertical blinds to fit your home and windows perfectly.
Why Choose Custom Hunter Douglas Vertical Blinds?
Vertical blinds are excellent options for large windows, including windows that are tall and wide, or for sliding glass doors. Since vertical blinds glide along a railing at the top of your window, you can easily maneuver them to cover as much or as little of the window as you want. The vertical slats on the blinds serve several purposes.
- They make your window look taller, which makes your whole space look bigger.
- They twist, so you can block light or let it in.
- They provide a layer of insulation, which improves energy efficiency and saves you money.
- They allow you to have privacy or a view as you desire.

The Importance of Well-Fitted Vertical Blinds
At Barrows Custom Window Treatments, we take measurements of your windows and fit your vertical blinds to precisely the size of your window. When a window treatment doesn’t fully cover the window, it can have some ramifications, like:
- Creating gaps, which could cause an issue with privacy, especially at night.
- Light leaks through, so you won’t get total privacy during the day.
- Not improving energy efficiency as well as it could.
- Looking messy and detracting from the overall appearance.
Installing your Hunter Douglas vertical blinds for you allows us to ensure they hang and operate as intended and create a seamless look.
