Don’t Let Drafty Windows
Ruin Your Comfort
Old Windows, Cold Drafts
Many beautiful homes in Chatham and Summit still have original windows. They look great, but they leak heat in the winter. Our insulating cellular shades and shutters add a thermal barrier, stopping drafts instantly without requiring a window replacement.
The “Fishbowl” Effect
In towns like Cranford and Garwood, homes are close together. Standard blinds force you to choose between sunlight and privacy. We offer versatile solutions that allow you to block the street view while still flooding your rooms with natural light.
Style Mismatches
Cheap plastic blinds look out of place in a sophisticated Short Hills estate. We offer premium wood shutters and designer fabrics that complement your crown molding and hardwood floors, rather than cheapening them.
Now that’s easy, call now!
The Sophisticated Choice
for NJ Homeowners
Made in the Shade brings the showroom to you—serving Berkeley Heights, Scotch Plains, and beyond—so you get designer quality, professional advice, and a perfect fit every time.
Convenience for Busy Families
Between school runs, sports practice, and work, you don’t have time to run around the house adjusting blinds all day. Our motorized shades simplify your routine. Program them to open with the sunrise for a gentle wake-up call, or close instantly for privacy during family dinner. It’s affordable luxury that fits your real life.

The Gold Standard for Classic NJ Homes
Nothing complements a Northern New Jersey home like custom plantation shutters. They are the timeless choice for adding curb appeal and permanent value to historic Colonials in Westfield or classic Tudors in Summit. Our shutters provide superior insulation against winter drafts and offer unmatched privacy, making them a true investment in your home’s character and comfort.
Create Your Private Outdoor Oasis
Enjoy beautiful New Jersey summers without the mosquitoes or the intense afternoon sun. Our motorized exterior screens transform your deck or patio into a comfortable, bug-free retreat. Block the glare and add privacy from neighbors, creating the perfect space for entertaining in Short Hills or relaxing in Mountainside.

Window Coverings for Every Season
Living in Northern New Jersey means enjoying four distinct seasons. Our collection is curated to handle the humid August heat and the freezing February snow. From energy-efficient shades to timeless drapery, we help you create a home that is comfortable and stylish year-round.
SHADES
Perfect for the commuter lifestyle. Our motorized roller shades can be programmed to lower automatically when you leave for the city, protecting your furniture from UV rays. For bedrooms in Livingston, consider our blackout cellular shades for deep sleep and maximum insulation against winter cold.
SHUTTERS
The gold standard for New Jersey Colonials and Cape Cods. Our plantation shutters are custom-built to fit the unique quirks of older window frames. They offer a permanent upgrade that boosts curb appeal and provides a solid layer of insulation against the elements.
BLINDS
Achieve a classic look with modern durability. Our genuine wood blinds add warmth to home offices and libraries in Madison, while our moisture-resistant faux wood options are perfect for humid bathrooms and kitchens. Get the precise light control you need with a timeless aesthetic.
OUTDOOR SHADES
New Jersey summers are beautiful, but the mosquitoes and humidity can be intense. Our motorized exterior screens turn your covered porch or deck into a bug-free extension of your home. Enjoy your backyard in Mountainside or New Providence without the glare or the pests.
DRAPERY
Add elegance and warmth to your formal dining or living room. Layering custom drapes over your blinds adds a finished, designer look that fits perfectly in Florham Park homes. The thick fabric also acts as a sound buffer, dampening street noise and improving acoustics.
DECORATIVE GRILLES
Enhance your entryway without a major renovation. Faux iron grilles are the perfect addition to transom windows or sidelights. They provide the look of custom wrought iron, adding a touch of sophistication that sets your home apart from the rest of the block.
