Why Choose Custom Drapery?

Custom drapery is a popular choice among home designers for a reason. Unlike off-the-shelf options you can find at home stores, custom curtains and drapes are made to the exact dimensions of your windows with the best quality fabrics available. They're shaped for your unique home and personal palette.

Drapery gives you the freedom to express your personality through a diverse range of patterns and textures. By layering elements like sheer linings for privacy and heavy for room darkening or for insulation, you add a level of light control and softening to a room without having to overhaul your interior decor. It is the finishing detail that makes a space feel comfortable and personally curated.

Stationary Side Panels

For many homeowners in Manasquan, the goal is to frame a beautiful view rather than block it. Stationary drapery panels provide the visual warmth of fabric without the need to open or close them daily. They are ideal for layering over shades or blinds to add depth and dimension to a room’s perimeter.

Room Darkening Drapery

Essential for bedrooms and media rooms, our room-darkening drapery uses high-performance linings to eliminate light gaps and provide maximum privacy. These drapes also offer significant energy efficiency, keeping your Jersey Shore home cooler in the summer and warmer during coastal winters.

Motorized Drapes

Experience the pinnacle of convenience with motorized drapery. Using motorized options like Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation, you can schedule your customized drapes to open with the sunrise or close at sunset via your smartphone or voice command. Motorization is particularly beneficial for high-ceiling windows or large banks of sliding doors.

Custom Header Styles

The header of your drapery determines how the fabric hangs and how the pleats appear. Our design team is experienced in crafting a range of drapery styles designed to complement your decor, including:

  • Pinch Pleat: A classic look where the fabric is gathered into permanent folds.
  • Ripplefold: A modern, streamlined style where the drapes glide on a track in soft S-curves.
  • Grommet: A popular option for Manasquan homes where the rod passes through metal rings in the fabric, creating large, soft folds.
  • Rod Pocket: A traditional style where the rod is hidden within a pocket of fabric, ideal for stationary panels.
