Our Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds remain one of the most practical window coverings for patio doors, sliding glass doors and oversized windows — the individually rotating vanes stack cleanly to one side, keeping doorways fully clear, and give finer light and privacy control than a single large panel or shade ever can.
Today's vertical blinds aren't the flat, stark-white office blinds many people picture. We fabricate them in soft fabric weaves, moisture-proof PVC/vinyl, and modern S-curve vane profiles — made to measure for your exact windows, with a specialist visiting your home to bring real fabric and vane samples so you can see and feel the difference in your own light, free of charge.

Materials & Vane Styles
Three ways to match material and vane style to the room — from soft living-room fabric to wipe-clean bathroom PVC.

Soft, textured weaves in a wide range of colors — the modern look that has repositioned vertical blinds as a genuinely residential choice, ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and large windows.

Fully wipe-clean and moisture-resistant vanes built for bathrooms, kitchens and other humid rooms where a fabric shade could stain or mildew over time.

Gently curved vanes overlap and interlock more tightly than flat vanes when closed, reducing light gaps and giving a softer, more contemporary profile.

Are Vertical Blinds Outdated?
The "office blinds" reputation comes from older flat PVC vanes in stark white — that's not what we install today.
Soft Fabric Weaves & Textures
Modern fabric vertical blinds bring the same textured, residential look as a roller or roman shade — a world away from the flat commercial vanes vertical blinds are known for.
S-Curve Vane Design
Curved vane profiles interlock more tightly when closed for a softer look and a tighter light seal than old-style flat vanes.
PVC/Vinyl for Moisture Areas
Wipe-clean vinyl vertical blinds handle bathrooms and kitchens without the warping or staining risk that fabric shades face in humid rooms.
Built for Large Windows & Sliding Doors
Vertical blinds distribute coverage evenly across wide patio door walls and oversized windows without the sag a single large horizontal shade can develop.

Smart Home Ready
Every vertical blind we fabricate can be upgraded to motorized, cordless operation.
App, Remote & Voice Control
Open and close your vertical blinds from a remote, wall switch or smartphone app — with Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomeKit integration available.
Built for Wide Door Walls
Motorization is especially valuable on wide sliding door and patio door walls, where operating a long run of vanes by hand or wand can be awkward.
Cordless & Child-Safe
No dangling cords or wands means safer homes with kids and pets, and a cleaner look on every window.
Scheduling & Automation
Set your vertical blinds to open and close automatically on a schedule, so patio doors and large windows adjust for light and privacy without lifting a finger.

Client Reviews
Called three companies. SMI’s quality and attention to detail were in a completely different league. Best investment we’ve made for our condo.

Common Questions
Not anymore. The "office blinds" reputation vertical blinds carry comes from older flat PVC vanes in stark white — today's vertical blinds are available in soft fabric weaves, natural textures and S-curve vane profiles that read as a genuinely residential, premium window covering rather than a commercial afterthought. For large windows and wide sliding door walls, modern vertical blinds remain one of the most practical and stylish options available.
Panel track blinds use wide flat fabric panels that stack to one side on a track system, while vertical blinds use narrower individual vanes that rotate to open and close. Panel track is a newer alternative that suits very large openings and minimalist interiors, but vertical blinds remain the more versatile, better-value option for most homes, offering finer light and privacy control since each vane rotates independently. We don't currently offer panel track blinds, but we're happy to walk you through how vertical blinds compare for your specific window during a free consultation.
Fabric vertical blinds offer a softer, more textured look and a wider range of colors and weaves, making them a popular choice for living rooms and bedrooms. PVC (vinyl) vertical blinds are fully moisture-resistant and wipe-clean, which makes them the better choice for bathrooms, kitchens and other high-humidity spaces where fabric could be prone to staining or mildew over time.
Yes — vertical blinds are one of the most practical window coverings for patio doors and sliding glass doors, because the vanes stack neatly to one side and keep the doorway fully clear for walking through, unlike horizontal blinds or curtains that can bunch or block access. This is one of the main reasons vertical blinds remain a top seller for sliding door walls in Metro Vancouver homes.
Yes. Every vertical blind we fabricate can be upgraded to a motorized, cordless system operated by remote, wall switch or smartphone app, with Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomeKit integration available — especially useful for wide patio door walls and large windows that are awkward to reach by hand.
PVC/vinyl vertical blinds are fully moisture-proof and wipe-clean, making them a strong choice for bathrooms, kitchens and other humid rooms where fabric shades can be prone to staining or mildew. Fabric vertical blinds are better suited to drier rooms like living rooms and bedrooms.
S-curve vertical blinds use vanes with a gentle curved profile instead of a flat one. When closed, the curved edges overlap and interlock more tightly than flat vanes, reducing the light gaps that are common with older-style vertical blinds and giving a closer-to-blackout result along with a softer, more contemporary look.
Pricing depends on window size, fabric or PVC choice, vane width, and whether you choose manual or motorized operation, so every home is different. We provide a free in-home measurement and consultation so you get an accurate, no-obligation quote before committing to anything.
Yes — vertical blinds are one of the best-suited window coverings for large windows and wide sliding door walls, since the vanes distribute coverage evenly across the width without the sagging or excess weight that can affect a single large horizontal shade.
In many cases, yes — once your vertical blinds are measured and fabricated, our team can often complete installation for an entire home in a single visit. Turnaround time depends on fabric availability and the number of windows, which we'll confirm during your free in-home consultation.
