Our History
Muriel Baker founded Galaxy Draperies in 1976. Just one year later, Muriel’s son Rick joined her. Muriel’s focus was custom window coverings that were high quality, from a business that truly cared about its customers. While Muriel is no longer with us, her son Rick continues her vision to this day. His family – wife Diane and children David, Matt, and Jenna – all work in our Los Angeles family business.
Galaxy Draperies offers custom window treatments and awnings throughout Los Angeles & the San Fernando Valley.
With more than 46 years under our belts, and as members of the community, we take pride in our knowledge and expertise. Our team of experienced Design Consultations are all trained in Interior Design and work passionately with you to produce custom window treatments that suit your own unique style, preferences, and needs.
We don’t contract out our installers either. Our skilled installation team is trained by us and employed by us. There’s no passing the buck onto third party contractors, and unlike general contractors, window coverings and awnings are all our team does. Between our Design Consultants and Installers, our Customer Service team and more, we have set ourselves up to make sure your custom draperies, shades, blinds, shutters, or awnings come out perfectly the first time.
We’re always here when you need us, and our goal is to make sure you’re thrilled with your end results.
MISSION STATEMENT
At Galaxy Draperies we use our expertise and experience to help you design and select custom window coverings, manufactured in our workroom and installed by seasoned professionals, that meet your needs and style at a great value. We pride ourselves on the principle of quality products at reasonable prices, with the assurance of the highest level of customer service.
