About The Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets

Local Window Treatment Experience in The Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets

This is the most likely place in Greenfield to meet 1970s aluminum horizontal sliding units, and they behave nothing like the vertically operating openings of the same age. The operating panel overlaps the frame and the track projects into the room, so the depth you can actually use for an inside mount is less than the depth you can see. We measure at the point where a bracket would sit, not at the trim. On Coachlite Drive that regularly turns a 2 inch product into an outside mount, and it is better to know that on the first visit than after fabrication.</p><p style="font-size:16px;color:#4a5a6a;line-height:1.75;margin:16px 0 0">The second thing about this cluster is the split level, and a split is effectively two houses for measuring purposes. The upper level carries normal proportioned openings, the lower level carries half height ones that are wider than they are tall, and there are two different sill heights inside one address. A house on Whisler Drive can therefore need two different products, two different stack strategies and two separate measure passes. We do not carry a number from the upper level to the lower level, and after fifty to sixty five years of movement on Hancock County clay we would not carry it between two openings on the same level either.

We have served The Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets homeowners through the full range of window treatment needs, from inspections and repairs to full replacements. Whatever the system, our Greenfield crew approaches every project with clear communication and respect for your property.

The Housing Here

Ranches, tri levels and early colonials off N State Street

No individual plat year is published for the Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets. Hancock County's assessor data is served through platforms with no queryable per parcel year built field, so the sourced position is the citywide one: 579 Greenfield housing units date to the 1960s and 1,202 to the 1970s, and this cluster sits in that block on the evidence of its street naming and its curvilinear pattern. Architecture matches: 1960s and 1970s ranch, tri level and split level, with some early two story colonials mixed in. Ranch and split dominate, which is a different window schedule from the two story production stock on the city's edges.

Home counts, lot sizes and a price band are not published for this cluster, so they get measured rather than quoted. The one useful structural fact is who built it. The surname streets interleaved with the Lite streets, Kingen, Whisler, Braun, Fleming, Barrett and Phillips, read as several small local developers working adjacent ground rather than one builder running repeated elevations. The practical result is that a measurement taken on Barrett Drive tells you nothing about a house on Gaslite Lane. Greenfield's citywide median home value is $216,400 across 10,744 units with a median year built of 1995, which puts this cluster on the older side of that middle.

Built
Not individually sourced. The naming convention and street pattern place it in the city's 1960s and 1970s block, which the ACS records as 579 units from the 1960s and 1,202 from the 1970s.
Homes
Not published at parcel level. Interleaved surname streets suggest several small local developers rather than one production builder, so counts and plans get taken on site.
Typical size
Not published at parcel level; measured on site. Openings run 12 to 18 per house including lower level ones on a split.

What It Means For Your Windows

Sliding units, split levels and two sill heights per house

A house here runs 12 to 18 openings once lower level ones on a split are counted, which is inference from the era rather than a survey. The distinctive item is the 1970s aluminum horizontal sliding unit. Its operating panel rides in a track that projects into the opening, so usable inside mount depth is smaller than the visible reveal, and a bracket that would clear a vertically operating opening of the same age fouls the track here. Casing is shallow to start with. Put those together and this cluster produces more outside mounts per house than anywhere else in Greenfield except the fruit street grid east of the square.

Then there is the split level geometry. Lower level openings are half height and wider than they are tall, and that changes the stack arithmetic completely. A shade that stacks 4 inches at the top is nothing on an 80 inch opening and is 17 percent of the glass on a 24 inch one. So on the lower level we either mount above the opening on the wall, or we pick a product with almost no stack at all. Fifty to sixty five years of settlement means nothing repeats between the upper and lower halves of a split, and the two story colonials add a tall stair opening that nobody can reach from the floor.

Aluminum sliding units steal the depth you can see

The track on a 1970s horizontal sliding unit projects into the opening, so the depth a bracket can actually use is less than the reveal measures. This is the single most common reason a product quoted from a photo does not fit on Coachlite Drive. We measure at the bracket line rather than the trim line, and where the track wins we go to an outside mount on the casing with a valance or a cassette closing the top.

A split level is two measuring jobs

Upper level, normal proportions. Lower level, half height openings that are wider than tall, at a different sill height. Fifty to sixty five years of movement on Hancock County clay means the two levels have not settled together either. So a house on Whisler Drive gets two measure passes and can honestly need two different products. We write the order that way rather than averaging the house into one specification.

Stack height eats a short opening alive

On the lower level, stack is the whole conversation. Four inches of stacked material at the top of a 24 inch tall opening removes 17 percent of your daylight, and on a lower level that is already below grade on one side, that is exactly the light you cannot afford to lose. The answer is either a product that stacks almost flat, or a mount above the opening so the stack sits on the wall.

Six developers, no repeating plan

Kingen, Whisler, Braun, Fleming, Barrett and Phillips run interleaved with Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite, which reads as several small local builders rather than one. That is why opening sizes do not repeat street to street here the way they do in a post-2000 plat. It means no shortcut measuring: 12 to 18 openings, each one measured, on a house where the neighbor's numbers are useless to you.

What We Specify Here

What we specify on Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite

Two decisions drive the quote here: how much depth the sliding unit track leaves you, and what happens on the lower level of a split. Everything else follows. National pricing ranges are all that exists for Greenfield, so custom treatments run $250 to $2,600 per window and motorized $300 to $1,500 per window installed, and fabrication takes 2 to 5 weeks. There is no HOA recorded on these streets and no design review, so the constraints are physical rather than regulatory. Residential work over $150 gets a written contract with scope, dates and total price under the Indiana Home Improvement Contract Act (IC 24-5-11), and we're insured and insured.

2 inch wood blinds

For the main level of the early two story colonials, where the openings are conventional and the trim will carry a real basswood slat. Wood is lighter than faux wood at the same width, which matters on a wide opening where deflection shows. One disclosure: wood moves with humidity, and Greenfield's muggy season runs 25 May to 22 September, so we would not put a wood blind over a kitchen sink or in a bathroom on Fleming Drive. Faux wood goes in those rooms instead.

Roller shades with a reverse roll

This is the specific answer to the aluminum sliding unit. A reverse roll runs the fabric off the back of the tube, which lets it clear a projecting track or a deep sill that a regular roll would foul. The trade off has to be said out loud before the order: a reverse roll is not compatible with a fascia, so the tube stays visible unless we cassette it differently. On Coachlite Drive that is usually the right trade, but it is your call, not ours.

Motorized shades

The tall stair opening on a 1970s two story colonial is the classic case: nobody can reach it, so it never gets operated and ends up either always open or always shut. RF motorization with travel limits set on site fixes that. The under disclosed cost is batteries. Hunter Douglas states PowerView battery life at about one year, so plan on a change cycle rather than treating it as fit and forget. National installed range is $300 to $1,500 per window.

Getting Around

North Greenfield between State Street and McKenzie Road

The cluster sits north of downtown Greenfield with N State St on one side and E McKenzie Rd across the top, which puts the Plaza Dr retail strip within a couple of minutes. Candlelite Dr and Candlelite Ct, Gaslite Ln and Coachlite Dr give the area its name, and Kingen Dr, Whisler Dr, Braun Dr, Fleming Dr, Barrett Dr, Phillips Dr, Webb Dr, Layton Ln and Florence Dr interleave with them on a curving layout. Because the streets curve, orientation changes lot to lot, so unlike the fruit street grid east of the square there is no exposure rule that holds for a whole block. Schools are Greenfield-Central Community School Corporation throughout.

Common Questions

The Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets Window Treatment FAQ

Questions we hear most often from The Candlelite, Gaslite and Coachlite streets homeowners.

Because the track takes the depth. A 1970s aluminum horizontal sliding unit has an operating panel that rides in a track projecting into the opening, so the depth a mounting bracket can actually use is less than the reveal appears to offer. Casing on this vintage is shallow to begin with. We measure at the bracket line rather than the trim line, and where the track wins we mount outside on the casing with a cassette or a valance closing the top. It is a solid answer here, not a compromise.
Often yes, and it is worth planning for. A split on Whisler Drive or Barrett Drive has normal proportioned openings upstairs and half height openings downstairs that are wider than they are tall, at a different sill height. Fifty to sixty five years of settlement on Hancock County clay means the two levels have not moved together either. So we run two measure passes and quote them as two groups. The lower level in particular needs a product with almost no stack, because four inches of stacked material on a 24 inch opening removes 17 percent of the daylight.
Nothing is recorded, and no architectural review body covers them. These plats sit outside both Greenfield National Register districts and outside the Historic Board of Review's Certificate of Appropriateness map, which covers the Courthouse Square plus buildings flanking State and Main for several blocks. No recorded covenant on window covering color was found anywhere in the city, so treat any rule as unknown rather than absent if you hold a covenant packet, but nothing was found for these streets. The constraints here are physical: depth at the bracket line, and stack on a short lower level opening.
Motorize it. The tall stair opening on the two story colonials mixed through this cluster is genuinely unreachable from the floor, which is why so many of them end up permanently open or permanently closed. RF motorization with travel limits set on site gives you real operation from a remote or a scene. Budget the batteries honestly: Hunter Douglas states PowerView battery life at about one year, so it's a maintenance item rather than a one time purchase. National installed pricing runs $300 to $1,500 per window.
Same product, almost certainly not the same sizes. The surname streets interleaved through this cluster, Kingen, Whisler, Braun, Fleming, Barrett and Phillips, suggest several small local developers building adjacent ground rather than one builder repeating elevations, so opening sizes do not carry from street to street. Add fifty to sixty five years of movement and even two houses built to the same plan measure differently now. We measure your 12 to 18 openings individually. If you like the look next door, we can match the product and the color exactly.
A reverse roll runs the fabric off the back of the roller tube instead of the front, which lets the shade clear a projecting sliding unit track or a deep sill that would otherwise foul a regular roll. On the 1970s aluminum units common through the Candlelite and Coachlite streets, that is often what makes an inside mount possible at all. The trade off gets stated before the order: a reverse roll is not compatible with a fascia, so the tube stays exposed unless we close it another way. Most people take that trade. Some do not.
