How workforce housing windows differ
Communities mix modular beds, stick-built apartments, and shared amenities — measure by building type rather than assuming one size campus-wide.
- Bedroom modules often share identical widths across floors
- Amenity buildings add wider lobby and gym glass
- Kitchens and baths need moisture-resistant vinyl or faux wood
- Patio doors on duplex-style units: vertical or roller
- Keep a master size list per building for night-shift reorders

Frequently Asked Questions
Should workforce housing use the same blinds as apartments?
Often yes — vinyl mini and faux wood turnover specs transfer well. The difference is documentation: keep a campus size matrix so remote crews order the right SKU every time.
Can property managers order without retail pricing?
Yes — use /commercial/store after account setup for trade pricing and invoice workflows.
Do you install outside Dallas–Fort Worth?
Professional install is DFW-only. Outside DFW we ship custom-cut blinds for your local crews.
