What Our Customers are Saying

Motorized shades are far more complex to install than I realized in 2013 when my system of 29 recessed somfy – powered shades was inadequately installed by another company (National Blinds of SF).

THANK HEAVENS FOR THE YARDSTICK — they are saving my system !
They know the best way to install motorized shades so that repairs are easiest and last expensive. In fact, they are so confident in their workmanship that if a repair is needed after the somfy warranty period, Yardstick will charge only for replacement parts, and not labor. I wish I had found the Yardstick 10 years ago. Now, however, with their help, I am prepared for motor failures (2 so far) down the road as the NB system ages. Moreover Yardstick prices are very fair (I checked around the bay area), and their know-how is excellent.
