Boise’s Authorized Roller Shade Dealer

THREE KINDS OF
BOISE WINDOW.

Boise is unusually varied for a city its size, and the window stock follows. The North End is full of early-century homes with tall narrow openings and original trim nobody wants drilled twice. The Foothills are modern houses whose best rooms look south and west over the valley. The Bench sits between them with mid-century glass that is wide, low and hard to cover without losing the room.

Peak Shades is an authorized dealer for Lutron, Draper, Hunter Douglas, Phantom Screens, Somfy and MechoShade. Every shade is cut on the day it goes in, which is how a North End room of mismatched windows ends up with one level line of light instead of a staircase.

Where We Measure

BOISE NEIGHBORHOODS WE SERVE.

North End

Early-century homes, tall narrow windows, original casing. Inside-mount, measured individually, nothing fixed to the exterior.

East End

Mixed older stock close to the river. Solar shades for the afternoon rooms, blackout upstairs.

Foothills

Modern homes with the valley view. Low-openness solar fabric so the view stays and the glare goes.

Boise Bench

Mid-century homes with wide picture windows — the single hardest opening to cover without killing the room.

Hyde Park area

Compact homes, close neighbours. Privacy matters as much as light, which usually means a dual shade.

West Boise

Newer subdivisions, repeated plans, open exposure. Whole-house motorized packages fitted in one visit.

Boise-Specific

WHAT MAKES SHADING BOISE DIFFERENT.

01
Old windows are never twins
Two openings in the same North End wall will differ by a quarter inch. Cutting on site rather than ordering to a nominal size is what keeps the bottom line even across a room.
02
Picture windows are a fabric decision
On one big pane there is nothing to hide behind. The openness percentage decides whether you keep the view or the glare, and it has to be held against the actual glass to choose.
03
Summer afternoons come in sideways
West-facing Treasure Valley rooms take low sun that no overhang blocks. An exterior solar screen stops around 90% of that heat outside the window, roughly three times what an interior shade does.
04
Privacy and light are separate problems
A fabric that gives you privacy at night may do nothing about glare at four in the afternoon. Dual shades treat them as the two different problems they are.

Pricing

HOW MUCH DO ROLLER SHADES
COST IN BOISE?

Priced per window. A Boise quote often splits the house: inside-mount work on the original windows, a simpler package everywhere else.

MOTORIZED ROLLER

$700–$3K+

Per window, by size and system. Install is 1–2 days; service life 20+ years.

EXTERIOR SOLAR SCREEN

$400–$2K+

Per window, fixed frame through motorized retractable. Usually a one-day install, 15–20 year life.

WHAT MOVES THE NUMBER

4 things

Window size, fabric, motor system, and whether power already reaches the window. We quote the options side by side.

Ranges cover measurement, fabric, hardware, install and programming. Electrical work for hardwired systems, and any HOA or design-review submittal, are quoted separately.

Boise Shade FAQ

BOISE SHADE QUESTIONS.

Will shades damage my original North End trim?

They should not. Inside-mount brackets go into the jamb, and we measure for the smallest fixing that will hold the weight. The point of measuring carefully is so nothing gets drilled twice.

What do I do about a huge Bench picture window?

A single solar roller at low openness, generally. It keeps the window reading as a window, which is the reason the house has it.

Are exterior screens allowed in Boise?

On most houses, yes. They change the exterior appearance, so an HOA or a historic district can have a view on it — and interior shades avoid that question entirely.

Can people see in at night?

With a solar fabric, yes — that is how they work. If the window needs daytime glare control and evening privacy, that is a dual shade.

Do you actually cover Idaho?

Yes. Boise, Eagle, Meridian, Nampa and Idaho Falls are all on our route, scheduled in blocks rather than one-off trips.

How much per window?

Motorized rollers run $700 to $3,000-plus depending on size and system; exterior solar screens $400 to $2,000-plus. Quotes itemize fabric, hardware and labor.
