Crown Shade Company of Baltimore, Maryland is a manufacturer and distributor of alternative window treatments. Our core focus is on a product that we have been producing for well over 50 years: Roller Shades.
Today we pride ourselves on fabricating custom and contract roller shading products including manual spring shades, clutch operated shades as well as a full line of motorized shades and solutions. We also take on the unique challenges of covering medium to over sized skylights with roller shading products. Aside from roller shades we also fabricate horizontal venetian blinds with aluminum, faux-wood or real wood materials, vertical blinds, roman shades and sliding panels all within our 75,000 sf fully owned production facility.
