The corporate headquarters is in Denver, Colorado.
The first step is to schedule a free at-home design consultation. During the consultation, a designer will walk you through the different features, patterns, sizes, and materials available for your custom order. Once the details are finalized, your new window treatments are custom-made to fit the windows in your home or commercial space.
Yes. Stoneside serves locally in every city we operate in. While our company headquarters is in Denver, your custom blinds, shades, drapery, or valance project is handled by a local design consultant and a professional installation team in your area.
Stoneside is structured around a personalized, in-home design experience instead of a traditional showroom. This approach gives you the advantage of reviewing fabric samples, lift systems, opacity levels, and hardware finishes where they matter most: in your actual space.
A local Stoneside designer will visit your home or office, study your natural light, privacy needs, and overall aesthetic, and guide you through options for custom window treatments, including:
Seeing samples at your window helps you select the right material opacities, colors, and textures so you achieve a cohesive, polished result.
While your installation team and designer are based in your city, your window treatments are crafted by skilled artisans using high-quality materials and adhering to meticulous fabrication standards.
This model ensures:
Window treatments appear differently depending on the lighting, paint undertones, and surrounding finishes. By reviewing samples during your in-home consultation, you can confidently choose the right fabrics, privacy options, and operating systems for your home.
This experience eliminates guesswork, resulting in a tailored, elevated finish that complements your space.

Stoneside regularly works with HOAs, condo associations, and community architectural boards to ensure your custom blinds, shades, or drapery meet neighborhood guidelines while still enhancing your home’s interior design.
Our team reviews your HOA documents and helps you choose window treatments that meet exterior-facing standards without limiting your interior style. Many communities request consistency in street-facing colors, linings, and opacity. We offer a curated selection of neutral fabrics and blackout or light-filtering options that provide both privacy and compliance.
Common HOA-approved solutions include:
If your community requires documentation, your Stoneside designer can provide product details, fabric samples, and color specifications to support the approval process. For larger developments or multi-unit properties, we can also assist with coordinated designs to maintain architectural harmony across the neighborhood.
Working with HOA guidelines does not mean sacrificing style. Our in-home design consultation ensures your selections fit naturally with your home’s color palette, lighting, and décor while satisfying community requirements.
Share your HOA window-treatment guidelines during your consultation, and we’ll help you choose custom window coverings that meet the rules and complement your vision.
We do not operate traditional retail showrooms. Instead, we bring the showroom experience directly to your home through a personalized design appointment, complete with material samples, color decks, and lift-system demonstrations.
Window treatments look different in showroom lighting than they do in your home. Natural light, wall color, trim finishes, and window orientation play a major role in choosing the right fabrics and materials.
During your design consultation, your Stoneside designer will evaluate:
-Light levels and privacy needs
This ensures you select the exact fabric opacity, texture, and hue that feels cohesive and refined in your home environment.
Your designer will bring a tailored assortment of:
We’ll walk through each detail so your window coverings align with your aesthetic vision and functional needs.
Instead of browsing shelves, you can make confident decisions with expert guidance in the space where your window treatments will live. The result is a polished design that feels personal and intentional.

All Stoneside window treatments are installed by trained, local professionals who specialize in custom blinds, shades, drapery, and valances. Our installers are background-checked and experienced in handling precise measurements, high-quality fabrics, and smart-shade systems.
Custom window coverings require precision. Our installation team ensures hardware is anchored correctly, treatments hang level, and lift systems operate smoothly. This is especially important for motorized shades, oversized windows, bay or bow windows, and layered drapery designs.
Your Stoneside installer will:
For motorized shades, we can assist with remote pairing, smart-home integration, and app setup.
Our collaborative design-to-install process ensures every measurement, material, and mounting decision works together seamlessly. The result is a refined, professional finish that elevates your space.
Yes. Stoneside maintains proper liability insurance and utilizes licensed professionals where required. You can feel confident your installation is handled safely, responsibly, and in compliance with local regulations.
Installing window coverings requires drilling into walls, ceilings, and window frames. Our teams use the right anchors and hardware for drywall, wood, masonry, tile, and other surfaces to ensure safe, secure mounting without damage.
Having licensed, insured installation protects your home and ensures professional-grade workmanship.
If your HOA, building, or property manager needs proof of insurance or contractor credentials, we can provide documentation upon request.
Our installers follow detailed quality and safety standards, whether installing a single room of shades or a whole-home motorized blinds system.
Let your designer know if you require documentation for your records or community association.
Stoneside can remove existing blinds, shades, and many types of old window coverings as part of your installation appointment. If you currently have shutters or older hardware mounted into trim, your designer will review the details with you so removal is planned correctly.
When installing new custom window treatments, many homeowners choose to replace older blinds or shades at the same time. In most homes, our installers can remove:
If you have plantation shutters or more complex shutter frames, removal is still possible, but the process can vary depending on how they were built into the window casing.
Your installer will remove existing treatments carefully and prepare your windows for installation. We take this step seriously because removal impacts the final look. Proper prep allows your new blinds, shades, drapery, or valances to be installed cleanly and sit exactly as intended.
In many locations, we can remove and haul away old treatments. If you prefer to donate or reuse what you have, we can also leave everything neatly organized for you.
If you want your new window treatments to feel like a true upgrade, removing the old system properly makes a major difference. It gives your new design a clean slate and helps create a polished, finished look from the moment installation is complete.
Schedule a free in-home consultation, and we will review your existing treatments and plan a smooth removal and installation process.
Stoneside has been creating custom window treatments since 2009. We have spent over a decade helping homeowners design custom blinds, shades, drapery, and valances that feel intentional, tailored, and built to last.
When you invest in custom window coverings, experience matters. Over the years, Stoneside has refined every part of the process, from design guidance to professional measuring to installation. That experience helps ensure your window treatments look tailored, function smoothly, and feel like a natural extension of your home.
Because we’ve worked with a wide range of home styles, window shapes, and design goals, our team knows how to guide you through important decisions such as:
Yes, you can begin selecting custom blinds and shades before your new windows are installed. Many homeowners start the design process early during renovations or new construction, then schedule final measuring after installation to ensure a perfect fit.
Choosing your window treatments early keeps your project moving and allows you to coordinate finishes, fabrics, and functionality in advance.
During your in-home consultation, your Stoneside designer can help you:
Even small changes in trim depth or window casing can impact fit. That is why Stoneside completes final measurements once windows are in place. This is especially important for roller shades, solar shades, cellular shades, wood blinds, and motorized blinds and shades.
Starting early allows you to plan the design with confidence, while measuring later ensures your custom window treatments fit with clean edges and smooth operation. It is the best of both worlds.
