Window-ology Comparative Summary

Pleasanton’s Window-ology is the corporate office of a national retailer and manufacturer of window covering products. The company has franchises and professional sales personnel throughout the United States, and its offices are locally owned and operated. “We have expertise in everything from soft fashions to custom draperies and specialty motorized products,” says co-owner Chris Robinette. “We pride ourselves on our ability to assess and identify our clients’ particular needs, and we’re able to recommend the right products for every situation.”

Window-ology also manufactures and repairs many products onsite and can help customers review samples. To help the company’s sales professionals know what products to recommend, Ms. Robinette suggests customers ask themselves why they want to cover a particular window. “Is there a sun or privacy issue? Is it for heat or cold? Is there a need to block glare on a TV or computer screen? These details will help customize window coverings for maximum performance.”

Window-ology also offers a variety of shutter options from several different manufacturers, including solid wood, composite wood and other combinations.

The company’s focus on workmanship and quality control is enhanced by its staff of long-term employees, who, according to Ms. Robinette, know how to build and repair all products and take pride in their work. “All our installation crews are trained to uphold our professional standards,” she says.
