Built for the coast and inland Northwest

PNW Weather-Ready

Durability meets Design.

FeltsCustoms specifies treatments for real Pacific Northwest conditions — not just the showroom wall.

  • UV & solar control

    Fabrics and finishes specified for west-facing glare and summer UV — so interiors stay cooler when the PNW sun finally shows up.

  • Heat retention in winter

    Cellular, layered, and insulated options that cut drafts and keep rooms warmer when the long wet season sets in.

  • Moisture-smart materials

    Faux wood, composites, and exterior-rated systems that stand up to humidity, condensation, and temperature swings.

  • Wind & driving rain

    Mounts and hardware chosen for coastal gusts and sideways rain — installed for real weather, not catalog optimism.
