Blinds for Pulte Homes

Closed on a Pulte or Centex home with bare windows? Pulte communities reuse the same window modules across floorplans — so stocked builder widths usually fit once you measure each opening.

Quick answer

Most Pulte single-family and townhome plans use these stocked blind widths:

  • 34.5" bedrooms — from 35" openings (most common)
  • 46.5" and 57.5" in kitchens and living areas
  • 70.5" great rooms and wide picture windows
  • Patio sliders often fitted with roller shades
  • Inside mount: blind finishes about ½" narrower than the opening

What new owners buy first

Roller shades are what most new Pulte owners choose first — clean fabric lines for open floorplans, patio doors, and primary bedrooms. Blackout and light-filtering fabrics are cut to your exact openings.

Typical Window Patterns in Pulte Production Homes

Pulte has called Dallas–Fort Worth one of its strongest metros nationally. Like other volume builders, Pulte standardizes window modules so the same handful of opening widths repeat across communities in Frisco, Prosper, Celina, Fort Worth, and across the U.S.

  • Open floorplans with 58"–71" living-area windows on many elevations
  • Bedrooms cluster around 35" single-hung openings (34.5" blinds)
  • Centex and Pulte townhome fronts: narrower 24"–32" street-facing windows
  • Sliding patio doors on most single-family plans — roller shades are the usual cover
  • End units and upgraded elevations may add wider picture windows

Most Common Blind Sizes

These are the Pulte-adjacent opening sizes we ship most often in DFW and nationwide. Each blind width links to available lengths:

How to Confirm Your Exact Size

The patterns above are a starting point — your specific floorplan and any builder upgrades can shift them, so always measure. Measure each opening's width at the top, middle, and bottom and height at left, center, and right. For an inside mount, report the exact opening and the factory deducts about ½" for clearance; for an outside mount, add 1.5–2" of overlap per side. Our measuring & installation guide has step-by-step instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size blinds do I need for a Pulte home?

Most Pulte rooms map to the same production-home widths as Lennar and D.R. Horton: about 34.5" blinds for standard bedrooms, 46.5" and 57.5" in larger living spaces, and 70.5" for wide great-room windows. Townhome fronts add 23.5"–31.5" widths. Measure each opening — community and elevation matter.

Does Pulte include blinds when you buy the home?

It depends on your community, brand (Pulte vs Centex), and design-center selections. Many Pulte homes deliver bare windows; some include basic coverings as an upgrade. Check your purchase agreement and Pulte homeowner resources (linked below), then measure before ordering.

Are Pulte and Centex window sizes the same?

Within a metro, both brands usually pull from the same regional window catalogs, so blind widths are consistent even when floorplans differ. Always measure your own openings — options and elevations vary by community.

Can I order blinds for my entire Pulte home at once?

Yes. Schedule a free in-home measure or contact us for a single whole-home quote. Installation is included unless you prefer to install yourself. We ship nationwide.

What blinds are best for a new construction home?

Roller shades and 2" faux wood blinds are the two most common whole-home choices on new Lennar and D.R. Horton floorplans — rollers for a clean fabric line, faux wood for durable value in every room. Pick one product and color for the full house rather than mixing treatments room to room. In Dallas–Fort Worth, schedule a free measure for a quote with installation included; outside DFW we ship custom-cut blinds nationwide for DIY or local install.
