A Place for Everything

You probably heard it as a child: There should be a place for everything, and everything should be in its place. That sounds good on the surface,but how do we make that happen?

One way to begin is to look at the cluttered hotspots in your home- those spaces that often attract clutter, or make you wince when you see them.  Read more

A Little Smack Talk

What do you hear every time you close your sliding glass door? Is it the clatter of vertical blinds smacking the glass? As the weather warms up, you’re going to want to open those doors again. It’s time to re-think the window covering for your sliding glass door. Marco comes to your rescue with custom shutters for sliding glass doors.

Our bypass plantation shutters are custom made to eliminate clatter and smack. Unlike noisy (and outdated) vertical blinds, our shutters fit tightly against the glass. Secured at the top and bottom, these shutters will never clatter as the door is opened or closed.

A header conceals the shutter rails, giving a clean and finished look. Best of all, our patio door shutters can be stained or painted to match your decor.

Available in a variety of louver widths and many species of hardwoods, we can further customize the look of your patio door shutters. We build your shutters in our own factory and we use all American materials.

If you’re ready for spring without noise of your old window coverings, call Marco Shutters today at (402) 778-5818. We offer free measuring and consultation services.

Marco Makeover: Closets for Babies, Tweens & Teens

It’s never too early to learn to be organized. A custom closet can help kids learn to be organized by providing a space for everything. Then, kids can learn to put everything in its proper place. Custom closets for kids tweens & teens that can change as your children grow will help them learn to make sense of their space.

Custom Closets for Kids Tweens & Teens grow with your childrenTiny children have tiny clothes in their closets. In this custom closet, the smaller, shorter clothing provides space for as many as three rows of rods for hanging clothes. Wire baskets can make it easier for toddlers to know where to store their own clothes and toys. They can learn by example when they see where each item should be stored.

As children transition into the tween and teen years, a custom closet like this one can be modified to include more shelves and fewer hanging rods. Drawers for socks, shirts and underwear and even a mirror can be added.

Wire baskets can get an upgrade to fabric textures.  Or, baskets can easily be removed and additional storage space in the form of shelves can be added.

The modular design of a custom closet can change as children’s needs change. We have a wide range of closet accessories to customize closets to create an organized space.

There’s almost no limit to the options available. Call Marco Closets today at 402.778.5777. We offer free consultation, free design and measuring. We can create the perfect closet for your child – no matter what their age.

Making a Statement

Shutters for Large Windows

There’s nothing like a large window to make a statement. Large windows give large views. Whether it’s the lake, the golf course, or the rolling hills of a country view, a large window brings the outdoors inside.  But, large windows need to be covered, and that’s where Marco Shutters and Closets shines. Marco’s custom large window shutters allow you to see the view and have privacy, too.

Our custom large window shutters can be built up to 40” wide and 100” tall in a single panel.  Using American hardwoods, they’re constructed with finger-jointed louvers, which allows for them to be tilted to the desired position – and stay that way.

Louvers come in 2 1/2”, 3 1/2”, and 4 1/2” widths. There’s a special advantage to using 4 1/2″ widths – there’s 4″ between the louvers instead of 2 or 3 inches. This wider space allows for great views when you tilt open the louvers. You won’t have to swing open a shutter panel to enjoy those great views of the pool or the golf course.

Of course, your shutters have to match the inside of your home, and our custom paint-matching service will ensure that the shutters will be a perfect match to your decor.

If wood tones are your style, you can choose American hardwoods, such as walnut, maple, cherry, mahogany or oak, or other species for your shutters. The shutters can be stained to match the existing wood in your home.

All of our shutters are made locally in our own factory. Marco Shutters and Closets has been in business for more than 20 years, so we have the expertise to fabricate custom large window shutters to the unique specifications you require. The quality craftsmanship we provide comes with a 25-year guarantee.
