Columbus homes
Blinds for Columbus homes, neighborhood by neighborhood
Older homes in German Village, Clintonville, Victorian Village, and Olde Towne East often have windows that are out of square or sized in ways store-bought blinds never fit. Custom wood blinds made to the exact opening close cleanly and suit the character of the house.
Downtown, Short North, and Arena District condos tend to have big glass and a modern look. Aluminum blinds in 1" or 2" slats keep it clean, and motorized blinds make tall or hard-to-reach windows easy.
Newer homes in Northwest Columbus, Hilliard, Dublin, and the suburbs usually get faux wood blinds in bedrooms, kitchens, and baths, where they stand up to sun and humidity.
Not sure blinds are right? Many Columbus homeowners mix blinds with plantation shutters in main rooms and cellular shades in drafty bedrooms. See all window treatments in Columbus.

Common questions
Blind questions we get asked
Wood or faux wood blinds?
Real wood is lighter and brings natural warmth and grain, ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, and offices. Faux wood stands up to heat, moisture, and intense sun, which makes it the better choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and sunny rooms.
Are aluminum blinds a good choice?
Yes, especially for hardworking spaces. Norman CityLights™ aluminum blinds resist fading, cracking, and warping, handle humidity well, and come in 1" and 2" slats with modern finishes.
Are cordless blinds safer for kids and pets?
Yes. Norman’s cordless lift systems are Best for Kids certified and remove dangling cords from the window.
How much do custom blinds cost in Columbus?
Custom cordless faux wood blinds typically run about $175 to $350 for a standard window in Columbus, installed, and real wood about $225 to $425. Small windows start around $150 and large windows or patio doors run up to about $600. Every window is measured in person and the visit ends with a written quote.
Do you install blinds in older Columbus homes?
Yes. Homes in German Village, Clintonville, Victorian Village, and other older neighborhoods often have out-of-square or odd-sized windows. Every blind is custom made to the exact opening, and we measure each window individually.
Can blinds be motorized?
Yes. Norman blinds are available with motorized lift and tilt, which works well for tall windows, hard-to-reach windows, and smart-home setups.
Do you repair or replace existing blinds?
Yes. We repair many blinds and shades and can replace worn blinds with new custom ones. See window treatment repair for details.
Do you install blinds in new construction homes?
Yes. We often measure during the build and install on or near move-in day, and we offer free temporary privacy shades while your custom order is made.
