Refined Roller Shades for Sliding Glass Doors
Roller shades for sliding doors have evolved over the past few decades, and now, you can choose refined ones that serve their purpose with stunning designs. At Midwest Blind & Shade, we feature Hunter Douglas roller shades near Mishawaka, IN, and we know you’ll be impressed with the collection.
But before we describe those styles, let’s back up and see why roller shades work so well on these doors.
Why Roller Shades for Sliding Doors Work
The wide expanses of glass in sliding doors add architectural interest to interior spaces but let in a considerable amount of sunlight. You’ll want window coverings to control that incoming light and protect your privacy. Depending on your home’s needs, you can select fabrics that filter light or darken a room.
The best roller shades for sliding glass doors must fit properly, leave room for door handles, and not move around awkwardly when the door opens and closes. Custom roller shades move vertically rather than horizontally, making them ideal companions for sliding glass doors. They also operate smoothly, providing easy access to outdoor patios or decks.
Added Benefits of Roller Shades for Sliding Glass Doors
Roller shades regulate room temperatures. During hot summer days and nights, these window treatments can block heat-generating UV rays, maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures while reducing cooling costs. In winter, they provide an additional insulating layer that helps retain warmth.
Additionally, if your sliding glass doors open into an area your neighbors see, roller shades can obscure their view into your home. You needn’t sacrifice natural light. You can simply choose light-filtering fabrics.
The durability of these window treatments deserves special mention. Homeowners constantly open and close sliding doors, and any window covering installed on them must withstand that. Hunter Douglas engineers its roller shades with high-quality materials and mechanisms designed for longevity, even in high-traffic areas.
Types of Hunter Douglas Roller Shades Styles You’ll Love
Hunter Douglas offers six styles of roller shades for sliding doors. The brand’s Designer Roller Shades come in over 370 color and fabric choices, from sheer to opaque. If you need added UV protection, Designer Solar Shades curb those harsh rays and come in over 90 colors and fabrics.
Here are additional roller shades that add unique aesthetics to sliding glass doors:
- Sonnette® Roller Shades: Hunter Douglas paired a roller shade with an energy-efficient cellular design in this window treatment.
- Alustra® Architectural Roller Shades: Featuring designer fabrics, this roller shade style has fabric-covered battens.
- Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades: This elegant, organic roller shade offers globally sourced fabrics.
- Designer Banded Shades: Also called zebra shades, these shades for sliding doors have adjustable, layered sheer and solid fabric bands.
Our team can walk you through the selections, customize your choices, measure your sliding glass doors, and complete a perfect installation.
