History

Patriot Blinds & More was founded in 2015 in Jacksonville, North Carolina. Over the past five years the company has grown to include locations throughout the Carolinas, including Charleston. Additionally, the team at Patriot Blinds has combined decades of experience to help homeowners pick the best treatments for them.

What They Offer

Patriot Blinds offers complimentary, in-home consultations as a way to bring the showroom to their clients. During the consultation, homeowners see samples in the space which provides a good visual to help make a decision. The designers are there to help assist with final choices, for instance the style and color, that will provide function for the home. 

Patriot Blinds ensures they carry a variety of options so homeowners have a wide selection to choose from. The showroom highlights products for use throughout the home. Indoor options for homeowners include a variety of shutters and shades. For large sliders Patriot Blinds has vertical cellular shading or vertical fabric panel options for homeowners. Homeowners can choose from retractable awnings or exterior solar shades for their outdoor spaces. 

Top Picks

As the industry is ever changing and technology continues to evolve, trends in the window treatment industry continue to change as well. At the moment, it seems motorization is a popular option for homeowners to incorporate into their window coverings. When the shades are motorized, the system is hard wired the system and rechargeable motors are used to control the treatments.

In This Home

For this project, the homeowners selected custom motorized fabric roman shades in the kitchen to help manage the light that comes through the space. They wanted a cordless system for safety reasons; this way cords aren’t getting caught in things and dangling for kids or pets to mess with. The custom kitchen is finished in hues to blues, grays, browns, and greens to reflect the natural colors of the landscape that surrounds the home.
