Tailored Commercial Blinds for a Professional Space

Walk into any thriving business in the greater Baltimore area, and you'll notice that its design works as hard as the other design elements in its space. At Alexander Blank Fabrics & Design, our design consultants know that commercial spaces need window treatments that look great on installation day but achieve higher performance and longevity.

We’re more than a blind store in Lutherville, MD. Alexander Blank is a Hunter Douglas gallery showroom and interior design provider, and we can create custom solutions that outperform the competition in terms of function, durability, engineering, and, of course, appearance. We know that:

• Office blinds get adjusted constantly by employees
• Restaurants window sunlight constantly shifts during the day
• Retail space elements like window coverings directly impact sales

At our showroom, you will see the difference for what your professional spaces need.

Commercial Blinds Built for High-Traffic Spaces

Busy homes are one thing, but business settings really put window treatments to the test. Blinds go through frequent adjustments, keep up their good looks despite heavy use, and comply with safety regulations. Hunter Douglas manufactures products that are as beautiful as they are durable, using reinforced materials and high-quality mechanisms. The construction quality delivers years of dependable performance, even in spaces where staff or customers adjust them.

Our talented team members identify which features matter most for specific business types. For instance, a law office has different privacy needs from a cafe, natural light influences employee productivity and customer comfort. Energy-efficient treatments serve key purposes in businesses that constantly run their HVAC systems.

Optimizing Office Workspace Lighting With Custom Commercial Blinds

Customers and employees feel it when the sun hits their table at lunch, when glare makes it hard to see products on shelves or computer screens, or when an office meeting gets interrupted because someone's fighting with stuck blinds. We get it: Commercial spaces need window treatments that quietly do their job, without creating interference.

Hunter Douglas blinds handle the reality of Baltimore offices, where the same slats get yanked up and down constantly. We listen to client pain points and design custom cord free commercial blind solutions that solve them. A customer favorite is Hunter Douglas Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds, a contemporary, economical take on aluminum blinds for offices. This style comes in an exciting selection of colors and matte and pearlescent finishes. 

Restaurant Commercial Blinds That Manage Ambiance

Ever notice how certain tables sit empty during lunch service? It’s because the sun's beating down on them. Guests won't sit somewhere uncomfortable, and servers can't do much about it. Street-facing windows draw people in, so you don't want to cover them completely. Hunter Douglas blinds put you in control of that natural light while still letting diners see outside.

Horizontal blinds with wider slats or solar shades with a room darkening liner work beautifully in restaurants: Tilt them to redirect strong sunlight or close them completely for an evening atmosphere at night. The clean lines work in casual cafés or upscale dining rooms, complementing the space without competing with your décor. If you have an outdoor dining patio, vertical blinds or panels suit large windows or patio doors particularly well.

Retail Commercial Blinds: Protecting What You Sell

These windows need to work two ways: They need to draw people inside and protect your inventory. After all, sun-damaged or overheated stock is money down the drain. Hunter Douglas blinds filter those damaging rays while keeping your displays visible from the outside. Vertical blinds or vertical soft panels handle storefront windows particularly well; their slats rotate to control light intensity throughout the day without eliminating street visibility. 

Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation can be your best friend in a retail setting. This motorization system removes the guesswork from employees, opening, closing, and adjusting your commercial blinds automatically through programmed schedules. Set it once, and your staff stays focused on customers instead of window treatments.

Do You Install Commercial Blinds?

Quality blinds, shades, and shutters require precise measuring and installation for optimal performance — no DIY here. Our Alexander Blank Fabrics & Design installation team works carefully, catching the quirks in your building that might cause problems, like uneven walls, odd angles, and windows that aren't quite square. We work around your schedule, too, so you don't lose time.

When blinds fit precisely, you don't get light leaking around the edges or mechanisms that bind up. Our team installs everything from simple manual blinds to complex motorized setups, and offers the professional, friendly service you expect from a company that partners with Hunter Douglas.
