For half a century our family has perfected the art of creating beautiful custom-made blinds, shades, and drapes for fine homes across the USA. All our products are “Made in America” in our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Florida. We are a quality-driven establishment and observe the highest standards - when it comes to product design, product materials, production technology and manufacturing processes. We stand behind our product. As a City Shade Company customer, you can expect simply the best.
City Shade Company is a family-run business, and our loved ones mean the world to us. To help protect your little ones, we proudly adhere to the window covering safety standards set by the Consumer Product Safety Council and the Window Covering Manufacturers Association. City Shade Company offers a wide range of cordless or motorized products designed to eliminate safety hazards associated with operating cords. If you can’t go completely cordless, there are other precautions you can take to reduce the hazards of corded blinds, shades, and draperies. The use of inner cord stops, breakaway safety tassels, cord cleats and tensioners can help keep cords out of the reach of children.
