In this blog entry, the Los Angeles and Southern California drapery installation experts here at Los Angeles Shades and Blinds will detail the main differences to know between custom drapes and readymade drapes.
Advantages of Readymade Drapery
- Readymade drapes are instantly available, and can be purchased right away, which is ideal for those on tight schedules or those looking to quickly refresh their interior spaces
- Readymade drapery is more affordable than custom drapery, and is an ideal choice for budget-conscious clients. Since readymade drapery is mass produced, costs are kept down, even for different styles and designs.
- Readymade drapes, while not boasting the same range of design possibilities as custom drapery, are available in a wide range of styles that match a broad range of decor. You can easily find all types of readymade drapery in both modern and traditional designs, in many different colors, fabrics, and patterns
Advantages of Custom Drapery
- Custom drapes can have a tailored fit to match any aesthetic preference or window shape. We can design drapes to your custom specifications, and add a sense of luxury and height to any room setting. Custom drapery is ideal for large or strangely shaped windows, tall ceilings, or any highly particular design preferences
- Custom drapes come in an unlimited range of textures, colors, and materials. You can choose from classic and durable linens to luxurious and elegant velvets, in a range of solid colors or patterns. You can match drapery to your existing decor or add unique features like blackout lighting or motivation, as well as artsy trim details. We can design you a highly one-of-a-kind customized drape that meets your unique needs.
- Custom drapes represent an investment in quality, and are often made of extremely high quality materials, with superior craftsmanship that helps them withstand the test of time. This saves you money in the long run, as you will be less likely to need replacements for drapery as compared to readymade drapes.
- Custom drapery can come with decorative hardware that meets your exact aesthetic needs. We can work with anything from rods and rings for small window openings to large and decorative hardware that can even be motorized for tall and large windows. Our drapery hardware is available in a massive range of styles that matches any design preferences.
