We’ll bring the showroom to you!

MITS Lancaster 5

Custom Window Coverings for Every Style

Choosing the best window treatment is essential in showcasing your unique style. Our solutions for all types of windows will blend seamlessly with your overall interior design. Window treatments improve the look of your space and provide privacy, control light, and save on energy efficiency. We carefully craft each custom treatment to your specific measurements and desired decorative and functional features, including motorization options.

Shades

Insulate in Winter, Block the Summer Sun

Lancaster windows work in every season. Insulating cellular (honeycomb) shades trap air at the glass to slow heat loss through a drafty winter and lower your heating bill, and they are our top pick for the cold months. Solar and roller shades cut humid-summer heat and glare, and roller shades motorize so you can raise them by voice or app. Cordless and motorized options for every room.

Shutters

Timeless Style, a Second Layer Against the Cold

Plantation shutters add timeless, upscale curb appeal and permanent home value, a natural fit for Lancaster’s historic and farmhouse homes. Their solid louvers add an insulating layer that helps hold heat in through a drafty winter and block the summer sun, and durable faux wood handles kitchens and baths.

Blinds

A Tight, Custom Fit That Holds the Heat

From rich real wood to durable faux wood, our custom blinds deliver precise light control and a tight, tailored fit that big-box sizes cannot match, including the large and specialty windows found in older Lancaster homes. A snug fit against the frame helps cut the cold off a drafty winter window. Faux wood resists moisture in kitchens and baths, and vertical blinds handle wide patio sliders.

Outdoor Shades

Enjoy Your Patio From April Through October

Make the most of the Lancaster patio season. Exterior patio shades and retractable awnings block UV and radiant heat, cut glare, and add privacy, so your deck stays comfortable through a humid summer afternoon. They also help keep the rooms behind the glass cooler. Manual or motorized, built for the south-central PA climate.

Drapery

Softness, Texture, and Extra Winter Warmth

Custom drapery adds the finishing designer touch: softness, texture, and an extra insulating layer against the cold, a classic look for historic Lancaster rooms. Layer drapes over cellular shades to frame a large window with elegance while holding more heat in through the winter. Tailored to your exact windows from a wide range of premium fabrics, with motorized tracks available.

Decorative Grilles

Architectural Character for Your Home

Decorative faux-iron grilles add instant architectural character to arched windows, entryways, and bare walls, a distinctive touch that complements Lancaster’s historic homes. They deliver the timeless look of hand-forged wrought iron without the weight, adding custom curb appeal that stands out.

We are very happy with the experience, however, I wish the material was a little bit heavier, because the light shines through. I was offered room darkening fabric but didn't realize how thin the fabric would be.

The entire process was very easy. My window treatments are beautiful and exactly what I wanted. They arrived when promised and professionally installed. They probably cost a bit more than the big box stores but the quality of the product and efficiency of the process were well worth it.

Made in the Shade of Lancaster is a great company. Christa came to my home with numerous samples and options for new shades for my great room. She was so easy to work with and discussed the pros and cons of various styles making it much easier to choose. She measured my windows (this is a room with a very high ceiling), and went through color options, etc. When my shades came in, they scheduled an installation time and Kim did a fabulous job with the installation. The shades are high quality and beautiful. Made in the shade of Lancaster is fantastic and I highly recommend them!

Frequently Asked Questions About Window Treatments in Lancaster

How much do custom blinds, shades, and shutters cost in Lancaster?

Custom window treatments usually range from about $100 to over $1,000 per window. The price depends on the product, window size, material, operating system, motorization, and number of windows, so an exact quote needs the actual windows measured.

That is why Made in the Shade Lancaster includes a free in-home consultation. We bring the mobile showroom to you, measure every window, show samples in your home’s real light, and tailor the quote to your project.

What window treatments are best for a Lancaster winter?

Cellular (honeycomb) shades are the top choice. Their honeycomb cells trap a layer of air at the glass, which slows the heat loss that drafty Lancaster winters cause through poorly covered windows, and helps lower your heating bill through the cold months.

Plantation shutters add a second insulating layer, a classic look for historic Lancaster homes, and most of our products carry a limited lifetime warranty.

Do you work on historic and older Lancaster homes?

Yes. Lancaster County has many historic and Pennsylvania Dutch farmhouse homes, and we custom-fit every treatment to their odd-sized and specialty windows. Plantation shutters and custom drapery suit their character, while insulating shades improve comfort and energy use.

We measure each window precisely so the fit and the style match the home.

Do your window treatments help with energy bills in every season?

Yes. Cellular shades insulate against drafty winters and cut summer heat gain, and solar shades block the sun’s heat and up to 99% of UV on bright windows. Better thermal performance at the window helps lower your energy bills through humid summers and cold winters.

We help you match the right product to each window and exposure during your free consultation.

Are you locally owned, and can my shades be motorized?

Yes on both. Made in the Shade Lancaster is locally owned and operated, an independently owned franchise with no retail storefront, so we bring the showroom to you. Our motorized shades let you raise and lower tall or hard-to-reach windows by app or schedule.

You work with a local team from the first sample to the final install.

Made in the Shade Lancaster serves Lancaster, Lititz, Manheim, Mount Joy, Ephrata, Elizabethtown, Millersville, Strasburg, York, Red Lion, and many surrounding communities. The mobile showroom comes to your home anywhere in the service area.
