The Best Window Treatments for Privacy Control
Bare or poorly covered windows put your home’s interior on display and can leave you feeling uncomfortable and exposed. But, at the same time, covering your windows up completely makes it impossible to enjoy your view and darkens your home’s interior. Thankfully, there are many types of window treatments that create privacy without enveloping your home in total darkness.
Galaxy Draperies offers a wide selection and would be happy to help you find the perfect window treatments for privacy control at your home in Los Angeles or the San Fernando Valley. We are a family-owned and -operated business that has been serving local homeowners since 1976, and we’re proud to provide innovative window coverings that enhance our customers’ homes.
Choosing the Right Window Treatment
Nobody wants to feel like they live in a fishbowl, which is why finding window treatments that allow for privacy can make all the difference. Whether you are trying to block out the roving eyes of nosy neighbors or just don’t want passersby peeking into your home, there is no doubt that window coverage allows for comfort and peace of mind. And at Galaxy Draperies, when it comes to finding the right window treatment to get the job done, we have a long list of possibilities. You can choose from shades, shutters, draperies. We also offer motorized window treatments that can be effortlessly controlled.
Top-Down/Bottom-Up Shades
One of the best types of window treatments for privacy control are shades that offer top-down/bottom-up functionality. This allows light to pour in from the top of the window while the bottom portion remains covered, ensuring maximum privacy.
Whether blocking the view of your bathtub while enjoying natural light from the top, or adjusting the shade to block the sun only where glare hits your television screen, top-down, bottom-up shades are highly versatile and grant unique levels of privacy without sacrificing natural light!
Shutters
Shutters are a great option for privacy control as the adjustable slats can be tilted upward or downward, allowing light to stream through while the majority of the window remains covered. Plus, our hidden tilt shutters are built without a bulky tilt bar in the middle, so you can enjoy an unobstructed view.
Additionally, our shutters are available in a wide range of colors and are crafted from high-quality wood. However, if you live near the water and deal with humidity, our composite shutters may be the best option. Plus, we also install plantation shutters, which are a particularly popular choice among homeowners.
Sheer & Opaque Layered Draperies
If you want to enjoy filtered light during the day and total privacy at night, layered draperies are a great choice. The sheers will soften the light and provide privacy during the day, and the opaque draperies can be drawn shut to block the world out entirely at night. We also offer custom-made drapes so you can select the pleat style and choose from our wide range of fabrics, including but certainly not limited to cotton, polyester, silk, and linen. We can even work with your fabrics! Our drapes may also be motorized so you can connect them to an automation system and control them with the push of a button or even your smart phone or tablet.
Motorized Window Treatments
When you want to enjoy a private moment at the drop of a hat, there’s no better option than motorized window treatments. Because they can be operated from a remote control, your smartphone, or voice-activated with a home automation system, motorized window treatments can be effortlessly lowered in seconds, so you can create instantaneous privacy.

What People Say About Us
"From scheduling our appointment to meeting with our designer, Bernadette, and the installer, Alfredo, we were met with professionalism and comforted in knowing we were dealing with people who knew what they were doing. Arrival times were well within the two-hour window. Bernadette shared her knowledge and expertise to help us choose the window treatments that best fit our needs and budget. We are so pleased with the final result and look forward to covering the rest of the window in our home."
"My wife and I recently moved and were in the market for new shades for our bathroom , living room and kitchen . We didn't really have a set vision so it was unbelievable when our designer Karen went through all the possibilities and showed us what would work well with the setup . Karen was not only very professional , she was personable and super knowledgeable about the products. I wish I could have her design the rest of our house ! Great product , great designer, great experience!"
"I would like to say that Galaxy Draperies was the best choice we've made. We recently purchased a new home and wanted to thank Bernadette for the amazing service she provided. I was referred to her by my sister, which also happened to purchase through you guys. Not only did Bernadette make me feel comfortable but it felt like I was working with family."
"Ordered Roman Shades for five windows. Designer who came to our home was nice and professional, Roman Shades arrived on time, the installation was handled by their installer who called and asked if he could come by earlier than our appointment, which was great. He was friendly, professional and did a great job! Highly recommend this company."
"I had a great experience with Galaxy. The designer presented me with several options and was very helpful in designing my window treatments. The installers were very professional, courteous, and careful! I will definitely use them in the future!"
