How would you dress these windows & sliding glass door?

5 years ago

I’m having trouble figuring out how to dress these windows. The previous homeowner had vertical blinds (I despise) just on the sliding glass door. We get the afternoon sun coming through and in the summer it makes this room warm so I need something that helps keep the heat out and that will work for both the windows and the door. I’ve looked at cellular shades and solar shades which look great on windows but it won’t work for the door. If I choose two different types of coverings, that is one for the windows and one for the door, what would look good together?

What about tinting the door and windows. I think they make tint that blocks sun and people from looking in but you can look out.

Hey There: My suggestion is a panel sliding window covering. It should cover the full door including the windows and open in the middle. This way getting in and out of the door is a breeze and you tight the door/window system together.

I would do 6 panels in total and a staggering track - this way you can almost clear the complete window when you fully open the blinds - you can also do 8 panels. The panels are opening with a simple push and the staggered track does install as wall mount with about 2 inches protrusion.
