Windows Design Dilemma

Hardware for woven fiber bifold panels?

8 months ago

Need covering for south facing glass doors. Hate curtains irrationally. No to vertical blinds... but something close
I've seen fabric covered folding panels on a window instead of shutters;
how can I make this possible for 250cm/98" wide glass doors?
Track? Curtain rod?
Have room on either side to 'stack' up panels.
Woven sisal or palm would be stiff but could frame up...
Any interior engineers out there point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

I think this is what you're looking for. Available ready-made in several stores and online such as Costco, Home Depot, Wayfair, etc., but if you need a custom size go to a window covering store in your area.

Top-down/bottom-up shades are also a great option! They provide flexibility by allowing light in from the top while maintaining privacy below, which is perfect for balancing natural light and privacy.
