Patent Pending Cap covers the gap between Louvers and Stiles for superior light and noise reduction
Blachley, DuraShutters founder and product developer has innovated a comprehensive portfolio of shutter brands to capture market share within the blind and shade market category with a series of cost and after sale cost reduction technologies.
The DuraShutter market specific brands fill primary market categories such as Custom made to order, DiY-RTA and OEM-commercial market categories.
A completely new fabrication process was innovated to lower cost and simplify the complexities found with traditional shutter fabrication if the goal of Faster, Better, and Cheaper was to become a reality.
As a result of many years of experiences, hard sought product and patent development efforts, the United States Patent office in Washington, DC has issued patents from David’s intellectual property patent pending, and provisional patent portfolio.
United States Patent No. 6,622,433, No. 6,854,211, and No. 7,055,231
That vision became a reality and in late 2005, David sent a sample of his new DuraShutter design to Neil Wolfer, President Ai Sales Inc., a national window covering component distribution company. Neil was so impressed Ai Sales Inc. committed to take on DuraShutter Custom as their primary product introduction and national market development partner.
Neil hurried to create a distribution and low cost fabricator program so the small to mid size blind and start-up fabricators could get into DuraShutters with little inventory purchase requirements (low start-up cost) so he could make an official market introduction of DuraShutter Custom at the 2006 international window covering trade show in Tampa Florida.
With a only few months of preparation and pre-show marketing efforts, Ai Sales Inc. produced an overwhelming response that resulting in the largest number of new shutter distributors-fabrication set-ups in the history of the window covering industry a single year.
