Vancouver's factory-direct window coverings manufacturer


Vancouver's building stock puts unique demands on window coverings. Coal Harbour towers face relentless western sun off the water. Yaletown's glass-wrapped condos need privacy and UV protection on every side. Kitsilano townhouses have three floors of windows that are hard to reach. Kerrisdale and Shaughnessy homes have heritage-size openings that don't fit off-the-shelf products. HT Blinds has served this market for over 25 years — we build every roller shade, blackout blind, and zebra shade locally, then measure, deliver, and install with our own crew. No dealers, no subcontractors, no handoffs. For custom blinds in Vancouver, we're the local manufacturer that does it all.

Window coverings for every Vancouver home


Roller shades — also sold as roller blinds — account for roughly 90% of what we install across Vancouver: the most versatile, clean-lined option for condos, townhouses, and custom homes. We build the full range, and every product ships from our local facility.

Roller shades

Vancouver's most-installed window covering — and HT Blinds builds more of them than anyone in the region. Our solar fabrics — Solis 1%, 3%, and 5% from HT Performance Fabrics — are the most specified solar roller shades in Metro Vancouver. Solis 3% is the standard for Coal Harbour and Yaletown condos: it cuts UV and glare while preserving harbour and mountain views through floor-to-ceiling glass. Solis 5% offers a softer filter for living areas in Kitsilano and Fairview. Full blackout options for bedrooms throughout the city. Light-filtering weaves for kitchens and dining areas. Every roller shade is custom-built to your exact window dimensions — no standard sizing. Available manual, cordless, or motorized.

Blackout blinds

Total room-darkening for Vancouver bedrooms and media rooms. Side-channel systems and cassette headrails eliminate light gaps on every edge — critical for south-facing Yaletown units and east-facing Mount Pleasant condos that catch harsh morning sun. Blackout roller blinds in Vancouver are our second most-requested product after solar roller shades.

Zebra shades

Alternating sheer and opaque bands let you fine-tune privacy and light without fully raising or lowering the shade — a popular upgrade from standard roller shades in Vancouver living rooms, dining areas, and ground-level townhouse windows where street privacy matters. Zebra blinds in Vancouver are a growing category for us.

Motorized blinds & HT Smart Shades

Vancouver's condo towers increasingly come pre-wired for motorized shades — and HT Blinds is the local manufacturer that installs them. Hardwired motors for new construction and pre-wired units in Coal Harbour, Yaletown, and Olympic Village. Rechargeable battery motors for retrofitting older buildings in the West End, Fairview, and Hastings-Sunrise without electrical work. Works with Somfy, Lutron, and Control4. Voice control through Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. App scheduling and sun-tracking automation for hard-to-reach floor-to-ceiling windows.

Explore Motorization
Made Here. Done Right.
Vancouver homeowners have more window covering options than any city in Western Canada — and most of those options involve imported products, dealer markups, and subcontracted installers. HT Blinds builds everything locally and installs with our own crew. That's the difference.

Neighbourhoods we serve

Every corner of Vancouver


From the downtown peninsula to the east side, our installation crew covers all Vancouver neighbourhoods. Each area has its own building types and window challenges — and we know them all.

Coal Harbour, Yaletown & Downtown

Glass-tower condos with floor-to-ceiling windows, harbour exposure, and intense western sun. Solis 3% solar roller shades are the standard choice here. Motorized systems are increasingly common — many newer towers come pre-wired. We coordinate with building management for freight-elevator access and work within strata timelines. Also covering the West End, Gastown, and Chinatown.

Kitsilano, Kerrisdale, Point Grey & Dunbar

Townhouses, character homes, and heritage properties with non-standard window sizes. Custom-measured roller shades and blackout blinds are the top sellers — every window is different, and off-the-shelf doesn't work here. Kitsilano's three-storey townhouses benefit from motorized shades on upper floors. We also cover Shaughnessy, South Granville, Arbutus-Ridge, and Cambie.

Mount Pleasant, Fairview & East Vancouver

Condos, renovated character homes, and new mixed-use developments. Battery-powered motorized shades are the most common retrofit option for older buildings in these neighbourhoods. Roller shades and zebra shades are the top products. We also serve Hastings-Sunrise, Strathcona, Riley Park, and Collingwood.

South Vancouver, Marpole & Oakridge

Family homes, townhouse complexes, and new condo developments along Cambie. Standard roller shades and blackout blinds for established homes; motorized options for new construction. We also cover Killarney, Sunset, Victoria-Fraserview, and Champlain Heights.

We have a Kitsilano townhouse with 11 windows across three floors — the upper windows are impossible to reach manually. HT Blinds installed roller shades throughout, with motorized Somfy shades on the top floor. The solar fabric keeps the west-facing rooms comfortable in the afternoon, and we control the upstairs shades from our phones. The crew measured, built, and installed everything within two weeks.

Custom blinds in Vancouver — your questions answered


Fabric choices, motorization, strata installs, and timelines — answered directly.

Where can I buy custom blinds in Vancouver?

HT Blinds is Vancouver’s factory-direct manufacturer — we measure, build, and install custom blinds and roller shades throughout Vancouver, in every neighbourhood from Coal Harbour to Killarney. Call 604-593-5450 or request a quote at htblinds.ca.

What are the best blinds for Vancouver condos?

Roller shades with Solis 3% solar fabric are the most popular choice for Vancouver condos. The 3% openness factor reduces UV and glare while preserving harbour, mountain, and city views through floor-to-ceiling glass. Motorized options with app and voice control are recommended for high-rise units.

Does HT Blinds install roller shades in Vancouver?

Yes. Roller shades are our most-installed product in Vancouver, accounting for roughly 90% of residential installations. We custom-build every shade locally and install with our own crew across all Vancouver neighbourhoods.

How long does it take to get custom blinds installed in Vancouver?

Most residential orders in Vancouver are measured, manufactured, and installed within 2–3 weeks. Lead times may vary for motorized systems requiring wiring coordination or large multi-unit orders.

Do you install blinds in Vancouver condos and strata buildings?

Yes. We regularly install in Vancouver condo towers and strata buildings. We coordinate with building management for freight-elevator bookings, work within strata installation windows, and comply with strata bylaws regarding window-covering appearance from the exterior.

What's the difference between roller shades and roller blinds?

They’re the same product. "Roller shades" is the standard Canadian term; "roller blinds" is more common in American and international markets. HT Blinds builds them to identical specifications under one product line — custom-sized to your Vancouver windows in solar, light-filtering, and blackout fabrics.

Can HT Blinds handle heritage-size windows in Vancouver homes?

Yes. Kerrisdale, Shaughnessy, Kitsilano, and other established Vancouver neighbourhoods have non-standard window sizes that require custom measurement. We measure every window individually and build each shade to precise dimensions — no standard sizing assumptions.

Does HT Blinds offer blackout blinds for Vancouver bedrooms?

Yes. Blackout blinds with side channels and cassette headrails are our second most-requested product in Vancouver. They provide total room-darkening by sealing light gaps on all edges — especially important for south-facing Yaletown units and east-facing Mount Pleasant condos.

What blinds work best for Vancouver townhouse upper floors?

Motorized roller shades are the most practical option for upper-floor windows in Vancouver townhouses. Rechargeable battery motors install on any window without electrical work, and you control them from your phone. Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, and Main Street townhouses are our most common motorized retrofit installations.
