Window Treatments In Mission
Custom Blinds, Shades, Shutters & Drapery in Mission, KS
Solar Shield Blinds brings custom blinds, shades, shutters and drapery to Mission and the small cities that border it, from the 1950s ranches off Johnson Drive to the large older homes of Mission Hills. A picture window on a wide Mission lot and a tall window on a Mission Hills stair landing need different answers, so we measure both in your home on a free consultation.
Where We Work In Mission
Where we work in Mission and its neighbors
Downtown Mission along Johnson Drive, Mission Hill Acres, Countryside between Lamar and Nall, and the streets around Broadmoor Park are all in our service area, and so are Mission Hills, Mission Woods, Fairway and Westwood, the four small cities between Mission and State Line Road.
- Ranches and split levels in MissionA small house on a big lot, with one picture window to the street and a lower level family room set half below grade. Glare on the front glass and a cold room downstairs are where most Mission projects start.
- Mission Hill Acres and CountrysideThe oldest streets in town, first laid out in 1926 and 1937, with bungalows, Tudor cottages and wood windows painted many times over. The casings are shallow and the frames have moved a little.
- The estate homes of Mission HillsLarge older houses on big, tree shaded lots near the three country clubs, with tall windows, wide stair landings and French doors to the back. Shutters, lined drapery and motors on the high glass are the requests we hear there.
- Fairway, Westwood and Mission WoodsPost-war Cape Cods and ranches in Fairway, 1940s homes on close lots in Westwood, and about eighty houses under the trees in Mission Woods. Privacy from the house next door comes first on these streets.

Picture windows, estate glass and one visit for both
Calls from Mission cover more ground than a town under three square miles would suggest. The typical Mission house was built in the early 1950s, so much of what we measure is a ranch or split level with a picture window facing the street and a back bedroom looking over a deep yard. Mission Hill Acres and Countryside add older bungalows and Tudor cottages with shallow casings. East of town, Mission Hills brings bigger and older houses with tall windows and landings that need a ladder, while Fairway and Westwood fill in with Cape Cods, ranches and side yards a few steps wide. Solar Shield Blinds carries a product for each of those windows, so one Design Specialist can plan the whole house.
Your Design Specialist drives to the house with the sample books and measures every opening there, because a 1950s frame that has shifted and a 1920s window with layers of paint on the stops need different mounts. Each window gets its own line on a written quote before we leave, with no pressure, and the price is held for 180 days. Interior shades and blinds run 4 to 6 weeks from order to install, and shutters and exterior patio shades run 8 to 10. Our own full time Install Techs, never subcontractors, hang the order, haul off the packaging and the old blinds, and walk each room with you.
Everything we hang is backed by the Carefree Guarantee, which means a lifetime warranty on the product that a buyer inherits with the house, defects fixed free for five years, and one accident in those five years repaired under Life Happens. Free paper temporary shades go up as soon as you order, so a front bedroom on a busy street like Lamar or Nall has cover while the real ones are built. For the back of the house, keep in mind that an interior shade cuts the glare in the family room but leaves the patio as hot as it was, and that job belongs to an Exterior Patio Shade under a roof or a Retractable Awning over open concrete. We also serve nearby Prairie Village, Shawnee and Overland Park.

Straight Answers
Questions from Mission homeowners
Yes. Mission, Mission Hills, Mission Woods, Fairway and Westwood are all in our service area, and the consultation is free in every one of them. A Solar Shield Blinds Design Specialist brings the samples to your house, measures each opening, and writes the itemized quote at your kitchen table.
Yes, once the depth is measured, and we measure it on every window. Honeycomb Shades have the smallest headrail we carry and tuck into casings where other products stick out past the trim. Where a casing has almost no depth, the shade mounts on the trim with a cassette so it still looks finished, and your quote says which mount each window gets.
Yes. Plantation Shutters are built to the opening, including arches and angles, and any panel taller than 78 inches gets a divider rail so the top and bottom louvers tilt on their own. For glass over a stair landing or above a door, a rechargeable motor puts the shade on a remote or a schedule with no wiring through the plaster.
A Honeycomb Shade is where we start. The air pocket in the fabric holds a layer of still air against the cold glass, and double cell fabric insulates the best. If the room doubles as a TV room, room darkening fabric takes care of the glare on the screen too.
No. The day you order, we put free paper temporary shades on every window in the order, so a front room on a close Westwood or Fairway street is private from the first night. On install day our Install Techs take the temporaries down and hang the real ones.
Yes. The lifetime product warranty in our Carefree Guarantee follows the address to the next owner, which matters in Mission Hills and Fairway, where houses change hands with the shutters and shades still in them. It also includes five years of free service on defects and one Life Happens repair for an accident.
