Window Coverings for Sliding Glass Doors

Finding window coverings for sliding glass doors or patio doors can be tricky because the doors must remain functional. Fortunately, we have several options you can choose from.

Duette® Cellular Shades are one of the most popular options because they can be opened horizontally, so you can easily glide your sliding glass door alongside it.

Cellular shades are also highly energy efficient. You can also select sheer fabrics or a ClearView® Sheer to keep your view, block UV rays, and still benefit from some energy savings. If you don’t want cellular shades for your sliding glass or patio door window treatments, consider the following:

Window Treatments for Front Doors and Sidelights

The windows on your front doors or the rectangular windows to either side, as well as the sidelights, need window treatments so you can have light control, privacy, and security. Selecting elegant and sophisticated Roman shades for door window treatments is an excellent option for a front or side door with a window. The layered fabric is heavy and luxurious, adding softness, eye-catching texture, and a soothing visual. Like cellular shades, Roman door shades also block outside sound because of the overlapping folds of fabric. Consider the Vignette® Roman Shade or the Provenance® Woven Wood Shade in the Roman style for your front doors.

For your sidelights, consider:

French Door Window Treatments

Between rooms, the window treatments can solidify the barrier so you can still see your kids while they play, but you’re less likely to hear them if you need to take an important call or sit in a meeting. Consider Vignette® Roman shades or Duette® Cellular for interior (or exterior) French doors because they block sound, and you can select a sheer or semi-sheer fabric.

For French doors that lead to a patio or balcony, consider something that provides privacy and allows a view. We recommend:
