Vertical Window Shades for Sliding Doors
Sliding doors are a great feature in Florida homes. They allow in tons of natural light and provide great views and easy access to your outdoor living space. These are just some of the reasons why sliding glass doors are an architectural gem.
Of course, every feature has its drawbacks! For large sliding doors in particular, finding the best window treatment can be a challenge. You want a style that fully covers the window, but certain window treatments can be difficult to operate. This can leave you battling with your sliding glass doors for access on the daily.
Fortunately, Imperial Blind & Shutter offers a variety of window treatment ideas for sliding glass doors from Hunter Douglas that look beautiful and are easy to operate. Some of our favorites include:
Duette® Cellular Shades with Vertiglide™
It’s no mystery that rooms with sliding glass doors can feel hotter in the summer and colder in the winter. This is because a home’s windows and doors are the top culprit for energy transfer in homes.
If not properly insulated, your home’s windows could let out precious heating and cooling. That’s why we recommend Duette® Cellular Shades with Vertiglide™. These vertical window shades trap air within their hidden honeycomb construction, helping keep your home comfortable all year long. Plus, the Vertiglide™ system allows you to easily move your shades side to side. No muss, no fuss, no using your bodyweight to adjust your window treatments–plus, it can be motorized with PowerView® Automation for 100% handsfree control.

Available in a vertical drapery-style orientation, these shades are crafted from sustainable materials like bamboo, grasses, and reeds to bring warmth and texture to any room. The vertical orientation also ensures smooth operation, so you can enjoy sun, shade, or privacy with ease.

These elegant window treatments combine opaque rotating fabric vanes with sheer fabric panels, giving you the power to easily adjust light and privacy with a gentle twist.
