Sometimes the plan changes—but that’s where precision matters. ✂️✨
After an additional wall was added by a contractor, these brand new shades no longer fit as originally measured. Instead of reordering, our workroom was able to expertly cut them down to the perfect size and turn them around in just one day. The result? A seamless fit, less downtime, and real savings for the customer.
At Van Gilder Drapery Workroom, problem-solving with precision is all part of the craft.
