DLUX Window Coverings is a family-owned Hunter Douglas Gallery dealer serving Tahoe City and the west shore of Lake Tahoe. Our nearest showroom is in Truckee, just over the pass. Every project begins with a complimentary in-home consultation, because the only reliable way to choose a fabric is to see how it behaves in the room it is going into.
Cabins and lake houses put unusual demands on window treatments. Altitude intensifies UV, which fades rugs, timber and upholstery faster than at sea level. Long winters mean glass is a major route for heat loss, so a covering is part of the building envelope, not just decoration. Older cabins often have windows that are not square or standard, which rules out off-the-shelf sizes. And second homes stand empty for months, so scheduling and remote operation earn their keep.
Cellular honeycomb shades are the strongest insulator we carry, which matters most on the coldest nights. Woven wood shades bring a natural texture that sits well against timber interiors. Plantation shutters can be built to fit windows that are not a standard size, which is common in older cabins. Solar screen shades cut glare off the water without closing off the view. Motorised operation is available across most of the range and is worth considering for high windows and for homes that are unoccupied much of the year.
A designer comes to the property, measures every window precisely, and talks through how each room is used and how light moves through it across the day. You get a detailed quote with no obligation to buy. We install everything ourselves, and we service and repair Hunter Douglas products regardless of where they were originally purchased.
