Not All Shades Do the Same Thing
Shades are one of the most functional window coverings you can choose, but function looks different depending on the room, the view, and how you live in the space.
A solar shade in your living room preserves the mountain view while cutting glare on your TV. A cellular shade in a bedroom adds insulation and keeps heating costs down through a Utah winter. A blackout shade in a nursery means your child actually sleeps. A motorized roman shade in a home office means you adjust the light without leaving your chair.
West Shade Co brings the samples to you. Ashley has 20 years of experience with window coverings and walks you through what each option does, how it performs in your specific rooms, and what it looks like in person, so you can decide what's right for your space. Every shade is measured on-site, ordered to your specifications, and installed by our team.
Find The Right Shades for Your Windows
Engineered specifically for sun control. The fabric is woven at different openness percentages — 1%, 3%, 5%, 10% — which determines how much UV you block versus how clearly you can see through. At your consultation, Ashley explains what each openness level looks and performs like based on your window direction and view, and you choose what fits your space.
The only shade style that adds fabric softness and texture to a window. When lowered, they lay flat or stack into relaxed horizontal folds. When raised, they stack neatly. They're a popular choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and primary bedrooms where you want something more tailored than a roller shade.
West Shade Co carries the full range of custom window coverings — roller shades, solar shades, cellular shades, roman shades, blackout shades, motorized options, blinds, shutters, and custom drapery. If you're exploring what's right for your space, browse all window coverings →
Guided by Ashley, Installed By Us
West Shade Co is not a big-box installation service. Ashley Ivie founded this company in 2020 after 20 years of residential interior design because she kept watching clients get the wrong window coverings (wrong scale, wrong material, wrong function) from people who were selling products instead of solving design problems.
Every project starts with a free in-home consultation. Ashley brings samples to you. She measures every window herself. The shades are ordered to your exact specifications and installed by our team from start to finish. We carry Alta and Graber, two of the best shade manufacturers in the industry, and offer a Manufacturer's Lifetime Warranty on all products.
We serve South Jordan, Draper, Sandy, West Jordan, Riverton, Herriman, and surrounding areas in Salt Lake County.
When to Go Manual and When to Go Motorized
Manual shades are the right call for most rooms. They're reliable, easy to operate, and come at a lower price point. For a guest bedroom, a laundry room, or a bathroom where you raise and lower the shade once a day, manual is the practical choice.
Motorized makes sense when the windows are large or hard to reach, when you have multiple shades in a single room, or when the space is part of a smart home system. One client, an elderly woman in South Jordan, came to us because she couldn't safely reach her windows anymore. Motorized shades gave her full control back without any physical effort. That's what the right product actually does.
At your consultation, you'll go through the options together: what each costs, what problem it solves, and what makes sense for your home. No pressure either direction. Shop our motorized products ->
The quality and professionalism of West Shade Co. is exceptional. I highly recommend.
