The window treatment shop Foley's new-build belt uses.
Foley sits inland of Gulf Shores along Highway 59, the artery that carries vacation traffic from I-10 down to the beach. The build stock is dominated by post-2010 new construction in the OWA-area subdivisions, which have grown explosively over the last decade. The older Foley core has 1940s through 1980s residential stock. Magnolia Springs, on the Magnolia River about 8 miles west, holds a small 1880s-onward historic core that takes traditional plantation shutters cleanly. Bon Secour, on Bon Secour Bay, sits closer to brackish water with the humidity profile to match.
Year-round indoor humidity in Foley runs 70 to 78 percent, a touch higher than inland Crestview or Milton because of the proximity to the Gulf and the bays. We default to poly plantation shutters for baths, kitchens, and laundry rooms across all Foley zip codes. Basswood is OK in living rooms and bedrooms in inland Foley and the OWA-area new builds. For Magnolia Springs and Bon Secour bay-influenced homes, poly is the right call throughout. Faux wood blinds in 2 inch slats cover most secondary rooms.
Our Foley crews work the same Baldwin County route as Gulf Shores, Daphne, and Fairhope. We can pair installs on the same trip. Schedule the in-home measure.

Built for Baldwin County humidity and rapid new construction.
Deep-jamb measurements on OWA-area builds
Most post-2015 Foley homes have window jambs deeper than 4 inches to accommodate impact-rated glass or storm-shutter pockets. We measure for those depths and order frames that reveal cleanly.
Poly default for baths and bay-side
Foley humidity warrants poly for baths and laundry across all zip codes. Bon Secour bay-side homes get poly throughout. Inland OWA can take basswood in primary rooms.
Magnolia Springs historic louver matching
The 1880s-onward Magnolia Springs core has original 6-over-6 double-hungs that take 3.5 inch louvers with divider rails cleanly. Painted basswood matches the trim.
OWA entertainment district proximity
OWA (the Park at OWA entertainment district) drives a steady vacation-rental flow into the OWA-area subdivisions. Owners who rent out their property like motorized rollers on a Lutron RA3 vacation schedule.
