Fenstermann LLC · Since 2003
The story of an immigrant and his success.
Founder & owner
Ingo Scholz
Ingo brought German window craftsmanship to the US in 2003. Two decades later, Fenstermann is known across North America for blinds and shades that solve window challenges other brands can't — with the same values he started with: integrity, responsibility, reliability and quality.

Fenstermann blinds & shades for every home
The best window treatment for every home — made in Germany.
Our journey
Two decades of making windows better.
2003
A new beginning
Ingo Scholz moves to San Diego on an investor visa and founds Fenstermann LLC on November 3rd, specialising in German-made tilt & turn windows, doors and bottom-up top-down shades.
2008
Weathering the storm
The products are new to the US and the financial crisis hits hard — but values of responsibility, trust, reliability and quality carry the company through.
2015
Following the passion
Fenstermann shifts its focus to interior design and window coverings, answering demand for shades that suit tilt & turn windows, folding doors and narrow trims.
Growth
Self-installation
With orders pouring in from across the US and Canada, we co-develop drill-free and tool-free installation options with our German manufacturer.
2021

Child & pet safety
Cordless child safe shades remove the hazard of dangling cords while staying stylish and practical.
