    We recently had the pleasure of working with Shades West, and we can't recommend them enough -- especially Daniel, who exceeded every expectation from start to finish. Daniel was the only one who responded to our Yelp project inquiry (you know the kind -- where you post your needs and hope someone bites). Not only did he respond promptly, but he also scheduled a consultation quickly, came out personally to take measurements, and walked us through our options without any pressure or upselling. The best surprise? Our shades were installed in just 2 weeks, when we were originally told 4. That kind of speed is rare these days. And the pricing? Fair, straightforward, and honestly too good to pass up -- no games, just value. Installation day was smooth and stress-free. Daniel arrived on time, installed everything beautifully (the shades are gorgeous and perfectly aligned), and left our space clean and tidy. He's personable, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable -- the kind of person you're genuinely happy to do business with. We're so glad we chose Shades West. If you're looking for fast, friendly, and quality service with beautiful results, ask for Daniel -- you won't regret it. This company actually shows up, and that alone deserves 5 stars.

    Danny and his team did an excellent job with the install of our awning! While we did have some post-install challenges with the rain/sun sensor and wind sensor, Danny was able to get replacements from the manufacturer and came back out to resolve them quickly! We had already fully paid at that point so it goes to show the professionalism and honesty of Shades West to make sure the job is done right!

    We consulted 5 different window treatment companies and went with Shades West (Danny) because we knew he would get the job done with the best price AND quality. Danny and his team did a 10/10 job when it came to professionalism, knowledge of product and quality of work. I was amazed how quick the process was especially in Hawaii and how wonderful everything looks installed. Do your due diligence in research but trust, you will be going with this company for the best experience possible!

    We are part time residents in Waikiki; so scheduling an appointment and then showing up on time, on a Saturday as promised means a lot! Danny arrived on time, had copious amounts of samples and never made us feel rushed. He was very patient as we grokked all things blinds and answered our questions with professional insight and again patience. Danny provided a quote and stuck to that price, no nonsense upon delivery. The Alta motorized window shades he installed are amazing! The privacy blinds (solar screens) offer amazing see through views while the cutting down the heat coming into the unit. The black out shades are literally day and night, sleeping in is now guaranteed! Highly recommended!

    I live in a condo in Kaka'ako (Ae'o), in a studio and had been wanting to convert my old drapes to roller shades for some time. I cold called several window shade installers on yelp. Danny (Shades West) was the first to respond and quickly provided answers to all of our initial questions and was available a day or two later for a visit at our place. He had installed in our building before, so he knew all the procedures, where to park, all the logistics, etc. which was really convenient for us. We had a tricky install. We have a tilt and swing door that needed to remain operational but at the same time we wanted both black out shades and transparent shades that fit, accommodated the operable window, and complied with our house rules for modification. Danny was able to think outside the box and come up with a solution that was easy for us to understand. During the install, they did a great job, it was quick, everything fit like a drum, they left the place cleaner than when they arrived, and the roller shades looked and operated great. Side note: I couldn't find a place to board my dog while Danny and his crew worked, but Danny was really good with my dog and made friends with her while they were working. It made the whole process really convenient. Definately recommend Shades West and Danny.

    Bedroom door

    To help block out even more light in our bedroom we had Danny come back and install a blackout screen for our bedroom door - since it has frosted glass and lets in both daylight and indoor lighting - and it works like a charm. The quality and operation are top notch and we love the look plus the fact that we can sleep without needing an eye mask.

    Manual shades by Shades Wesr

    Shades West was one of the two highly rated shades companies I called to schedule an appointment. The earliest Shades West could meet was a few weeks but I set something up and am so glad I did as I ended up not liking the other company. Danny gave me a solid price on the spot that included everything - selection of fabric, color, covering style, and install. 50% deposit up front. I received text and email updates for the upcoming install date. The install took around 3 hours. The installer Alex was efficient and professional and did a great job. He cleaned up and took all the cardboard away as well. Very happy with everything! The manual shades work fantastically and are very easy to move up or down.

    Bedroom, dual roller shades with blackout shades + regular shades

    We recently moved to a new home and decided to install single roller shades on the living room windows and blackout roller shades, along with regular roller shades, on the bedroom windows. Danny came by to give us an on-site estimate, and he was very patient in answering all our questions. He gave us good advice on choosing the perfect roller shades for us. Whenever we had additional questions, he replied back to us right away. We appreciated that he kept us updated on scheduling and ETA. The installation was quick, and the roller shades look beautiful on our windows and we LOVE them! Danny and Donald cleaned the job site, leaving it spotless - very impressive. If you're looking for a professional and reliable window treatment company on Oahu that provides quality materials at a reasonable price, call Shades West! I highly recommend Danny and the team :)

    My new awnings in today

    Danny and the team were amazing. They showed up on time, did an amazing job, and were very efficient on timing. Now that my awnings are complete, I'm thinking of other projects to use them for. Let them know Robert sent you!

    10/10 would recommend. Great quality product that looks amazing for a great price. Installation was very quick (around an hour for the door and window).

    Replaced previous custom drapes with these shutters.

I'm a repeat customer, previously having ordered some Ivory light-filtering shades from them for our living room (see pictures). We were completely satisfied with the customer experience and the final product the first time around, so when we needed shades for another room that we were sprucing up, we knew without a doubt that we wanted to go with A Blinds again. Both times, when I called for an estimate, they promptly scheduled an appointment to come out and meet with us. They showed up on time, brought some samples and pictures to talk us through the various options, and took measurements. They were friendly, listened to our needs and preferences, and were eager to ensure that we would be pleased with the product and that it would achieve the lighting and shade goals we had for the space. They told us it would be 5-6 weeks to receive the custom-sized shades after we ordered, and they came in exactly in that timeframe. Even the installer was concerned with making sure we were pleased with the install before he left. They promote their exceptional aftercare, which we haven't needed so far because of the great quality shades and installation. But I believe in their product and great customer service, so I trust that they will take good care of us if we ever need any aftercare. It's hard to find good contractors, but A Blinds has certainly earned our trust, and I would highly recommend them. Thank you!

Mel Wong, the owner, came out and looked at the room and suggested a fabric which was cheaper than the one I was looking at. I went with his suggestion and was glad that I did. It took over a month for the drapes to be made. I also wanted sheers behind the drapes so needed two rods. I like to have sheer curtains to add some privacy during the day or to shade the room a bit during mid-day. After the installation, the drapes started to hang on the carpet. I contacted Mel and he explained that it could be due to the weight of the drapes and came out and personally adjusted them. I appreciated his quick response. I'm very happy with the drapes and think they make the room look so nice. I also love the pull handles that make it so easy to open and shut the drapes. I hope they continue to stay in business as it would be hard to find someone else to do such quality work!

They're West facing so the hottest part of the day once the sun comes around is beating on the plastic glide pieces that hold the curtain up to our window. Being in Hawaii you can imagine how intense that can be. At some point someone must have pulled in with the weight of the curtain and the brittleness of the plastic spacers that hold the hooks on the curtain gave way and we had a dip where 7 of them went at once. We don't know when it happened or how it happened so we started checking around for somebody with a good reputation to come and take care of it for our daughter who has the apartment. After a couple uneventful phone calls to drapery repair and installation businesses we came across this one. Fortunately after reading their 5 star Yelp Review and a brilliant conversation with someone in the office we thought we'd give them a try. Actually we left a message and they called us back within minutes. And my wife found everyone on the other end of the line very hospitable and welcoming the new clientele and looking forward to having them come and take care of our situation. Then Jerry showed up. It was like having a favorite Mr Fix-It Uncle stop by to take care of the family. He was charming, informative, funny, and best of all, he fixed it. He is a hoot. Nice being entertained while someone's doing a job for you by the person that's doing the job for you. The job was actually done professionally and quickly but we really enjoyed his banter and encouraged him to tell us more about himself. It was that much fun. And I have to be honest with you and say the rates are affordable. I would have no problem whatsoever calling him to return to do the same again for any problems that we had with curtain, rails or any other thing that he works on. I wish I could give 6 stars. We're very happy thank you.

The long wait times (to be expected) between order and installation left plenty of time for me (the house owner and the one who paid) to be informed that a different blind was selected. That was not communicated to me at any point. When the installation team came out is when I found out that it was not what I wanted. Where I have an issue is Kawika pointed the finger at the person present at the consultation for choosing the blinds. He has my number. He has my email. He did not at any point reach out and confirm with me, who set up the appointment and made the payments, the selected blinds is the one I wanted since it was different from what was selected during the consultation. To give credit to Budget Blinds, they have been professional the entire time with a fast install time. When I brought up the issue, Kawika did offer a steep discount. Its the principal of communication in this instance where I have the issue. This is a $5000 mistake that could have been easily rectified if the Budget Blinds team reached out to me to confirm what I actually wanted.
