What Our Customers are Saying

  Many of the custom draperies in our house came from Yardstick back in the 1970s -1990s. They were my mother’s go-to shop for window coverings. Also, it was her favorite fabric store back in the day. I remember spending countless hours browsing through the pattern books for my next year’s school wardrobe.

Fast forward many years, to 2022. The house is mine now. The last time the window treatments were changed was in the ’90s when mom put in white shutters. It was time for a refresh. I stared looking for a window covering company, but the search stopped when I saw that The Yardstick was still around. I called and scheduled an appt with Jack. He came out with a bunch of displays and samples. I didn’t know what I wanted, other than just wanting some sort of shades on some of my windows. Jack asked me what my goals were, such as privacy, diffused light, etc., and based on that he showed me what he thought would be best for each window. I was overwhelmed when it came to picking out colors and fabrics, but Jack’s suggestions were spot on.

I ended up with all Hunter Douglas. I got banded shades in my living room and dining room. I love being able to open them all the way or just open them enough to overlap the bands and let in diffused light, while offering a little privacy. In the kitchen we went with roller blinds because I have a monster house behind me that looks straight down into my kitchen. In my office we went with a pleated shade with the top-down feature because I get afternoon sun and it allows me to block the sun as it travels west without compromising my view too much.

I added the motor to all of the shades that I can’t reach. Best thing ever! I also got the wifi hub for the motors, so I can open and close them from my smart phone. I just used it yesterday when I left the house at night and realized I had left the blinds open. I was able to close them from my car via my cell phone.

Customer service is top-notch and installation was great. I had some tricky situations with where my shades were going, but Mark and Sean figured it out. They had tricks up their sleeves for each obstacle. They installed everything, cleaned up and gave me a lesson on how everything works.

My house is so bright and cheery now. Good riddance to my old shutters!
