Help with window coverings decisions

5 years ago

We have lots of windows in our house and are at the stage of picking out blinds. I think we are just doing standard 2.5" faux wood blinds for most of the windows. We were planning on doing room darkening top down bottom up cellular shades for our bedroom windows.

Our main question is on our 3 sets of double doors - we have patio doors going from the dining room to the deck and in the basement, we have a set of sliding doors and a set of doors into a storage area where both doors open from the middle so it's a double door entry and exit to the storage area.

We're looking for ideas other than vertical blinds which is what we have at our current house.

Just wondered what others have that they love and work well for them.

Here's the back of our house where the said doors are.

We have doors (French and sliding) with the blinds between the glass. Perfect solution for us.

Since your doors are already installed check if there is an add on unit that work for them. Either from the door manufacturer or ODL.

Was going to suggest the same as maddielee, doing the blinds between the glass but I think once the doors are installed it may be too late.
A few options that I think would look very nice in your space :

Roller shade - I’d do this on both the DR AND BASEMENT doors. And whatever decor shades you want on top of that. Meaning on top of the roller shades in the DR you can do some curtains.
Another option is shutters. I think with your style home, those would look great in the bathrooms, even bedrooms ...

...

Great house! Looks wonderful! Enjoy!!

Thank you - I've never heard of the ODL blinds. They look like they would be really nice!
