Columbus homes

What works in Columbus homes

In older neighborhoods, windows are often out of square or sized in ways off-the-shelf products never fit. Plantation shutters and inside-mounted cellular shades are made to the exact opening, so they close cleanly and help with drafts. In condos and newer homes with large glass, motorized roller and solar shades cut glare and heat without blocking the view.

Plantation shutters

Made to fit older, out-of-square windows exactly.

Motorized shades

For condos, tall glass, and hard-to-reach windows.

Cellular shades

Insulating honeycomb shades for drafty windows.

Commercial

Offices, restaurants, and retail across the city.

Customer review

★★★★★

We used Olsson for our new home. Nik showed up during the building process and did our measurements. The day we moved in, Nik met us at our new home and hung our blinds in no time.

Common questions

Columbus window treatment questions

Do you serve Columbus?

Yes. We serve Columbus (43201, 43202, 43206, 43214, 43215, 43220, 43235, and nearby) and the surrounding area from our base at 7780 Corporate Blvd in Plain City, about 30 minutes away.

Is the in-home consultation free?

Yes. We come to your home, measure every window, show you real samples in your own light, and give you a written, firm quote with no obligation.

Can you cover our windows while the custom order is made?

Yes, free. If you are moving into a new Columbus home with bare windows, we put up free temporary privacy shades at your consultation, so you have privacy right away while your custom window treatments are made. See how new construction works.

Do you work in historic homes?

Yes. We measure every window individually, which matters in older homes where no two openings are quite the same, and we can recommend treatments that suit the style of the house.

Are you a franchise?

No. Olsson Smart Shades is an independent, husband-and-wife owned company based in Plain City. There are no design consultants or subcontracted installers: the owner, Nik Olsson, measures and installs every job in Columbus himself. We are an authorized Norman, InsolRoll, Draper, DrapeMax, and Elegant Window Fashions dealer.

Do you handle commercial projects in Columbus?

Yes. We work with offices, schools, restaurants, retail, and churches, including bids from plans and coordination with general contractors.
