From specialty window treatment solutions to custom design jobs, we have been around the block and we are ready to work with you. Here, we go above and beyond—just like our name implies.

Want to bring a touch of local North Carolina craftsmanship into your home? Plantation shutters are a longtime favorite of many due to the natural beauty they display throughout homes across the United States. Authentic hardwood louvers finished in an array of premium colors and shades add stunning curb appeal to your home while offering a natural minimalistic style that gives your home a custom-built feel. Expertly designed interior shutter components allow you to precisely tilt incoming sun for gorgeous natural lighting, and ultra-durable hinges give you the freedom to fling open your shutters for a room full of fresh air. We are proud to craft our shutters in-house for handcrafted quality you can depend on for many years to come.

Shutters are our specialty. We love and make them right here in Charlotte, North Carolina. But we are experts in a wide range of window treatments for every problem your home can throw their way. We are a certified Hunter Douglas dealer, always excited to support a brand known for premier quality and innovation. We carry an array of window fashions including window shades, fabric cellular and Roman shades, energy efficient honeycomb shades, wood and metal blinds, vertical blinds, and woven wood shades. Have large floor-to-ceiling windows or tricky arches and sliding glass doors? A Shade Above is equipped to help you develop customized window treatment solutions to fit specialty windows so that you can enjoy beautiful light control throughout your entire home.

We are always happy to offer professional, on-site design consultations to help you develop the perfect solution for your home or business. We also offer professional measuring and installation, so that there’s no guesswork in putting up your new window coverings yourself. We are your support team, here to help you from that first burst of inspiration to a well-planned execution.

Did you know that shutters are one of the most energy efficient window treatments on the market? The custom-built nature of shutters makes them perfectly fitted to your windows, creating a seal that keeps expensive heated and cooled air in while blocking excessive sun, UV rays, and solar heat gain. Energy efficiency is key to not only enjoying a comfortable time indoors, but also to lowering your heating and cooling bills. Plantation shutters are well-suited to locations like North Carolina where we deal with variable weather all year long. Enjoy warmer winters and cooler summers while relaxing with a stunning view of finished elegance and lustrous hardwood on your windows.

While plantation shutters are naturally cordless, making them a great choice for homes with children or pets, we also offer a large selection of other window treatments that can improve your home’s safety and accessibility. With LiteRise® technology, many of our cellular shades, honeycomb shades, blinds, and Roman shades are equipped with cordless controls that let you conveniently adjust your window coverings by gently pushing up or pulling down to position them. We also specialize in innovative smart blinds for the tech-savvy spirit. PowerView® Automation puts your home’s window treatments at your fingertips with a user-friendly smartphone app or Pebble® remote. Program your blinds or shades to open and close throughout the day on a custom schedule you create, or you can sync your window coverings with the local sunrise and sunset for a boost of energy efficiency. You can even adjust your shades with the sound of your voice using Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri, and Google Assistant pairing.
