Question 1

Do you make custom drapery, or only sell fabric?

Accepted Answer

Both. Designer's Choice Drapery is a full custom workroom. We carry hundreds of rolls of fabric in our Downtown LA showroom, and we design, fabricate, and install finished custom drapery, curtains, sheers, and Roman shades. You can choose from our fabrics or bring your own textiles for us to work with.

Question 2

Where are you located?

Accepted Answer

We are at 846 S Wall St, Los Angeles, CA 90015, in the Fashion District of Downtown Los Angeles, just minutes from most of the city. There is no Westside showroom markup baked into our prices.

Question 3

Do you offer in-home measurement and installation?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Karmel and his crew measure on site, fabricate the treatments, and install them. We also re-hem after installation if the fabric relaxes on the rod, so the drape hangs perfectly.

Question 4

What fabrics do you carry?

Accepted Answer

Unlike many downtown stores that stock only synthetics, we keep a large variety of natural fibers: silk, linen, cotton and natural blends, and velvet, alongside designer prints and quality synthetics. We also carry interesting remnant rolls sourced from high-end Las Vegas casino hotels.

Question 5

Are you really cheaper than the Beverly Hills drapery studios?

Accepted Answer

Our customers routinely tell us they saved roughly a third compared to quotes from Westside and Beverly Hills studios, for work they describe as magazine quality. We are a working DTLA workroom, so you pay for the fabric and the craftsmanship, not a designer showroom address.

Question 6

Do you make motorized or automated drapery?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We install motorized window treatments and can motorize many existing drapery and shade systems so they open and close on a remote, a wall switch, or a schedule.

Question 7

Do you repair existing drapery and window treatments?

Accepted Answer

We do. We repair, re-hem, alter, and re-hang existing drapery and window treatments, and we can refresh older curtains rather than replacing them outright when that is the better call.

Question 8

Do you reupholster furniture?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Along with drapery we reupholster sofas, chairs, and vintage pieces, and we make custom headboards, bedding, pillows, trims, and fabric wall coverings to tie a room together.

Question 9

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve all of greater Los Angeles from our Downtown showroom, including Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, Pasadena, the Hollywood Hills, and the San Fernando Valley. Customers regularly drive in from across the region and beyond.
