Vertical Blinds, Obsolete In Doylestown?
Vertical blinds obsolete in Doylestown? We think so! Perhaps your home has a sliding door in the kitchen or family room and you are unsure of what type of window treatment to choose. Chances are, at one time you had vertical blinds. Wondering what the trends are today in Doylestown ? First you have to decide what is the function of the sliding door. Do you use it often to go outside? Do you want privacy? Does it produce a glare on your television viewing? Is it decorative? For functionality, we would recommend a window covering that moves, whether it be up and down or stacks side to side. A decorative valance may be considered to embellish the top.
If it is to go up and down you have to be sure that when it is pulled up all the way that it clears your 6′ 2′ guest’s head! Cellular or other similar shades are a good choice because they have a very small headrail and a minimal stack when raised up all the way. A roller shade is also a good choice and comes in a variety of textures and wide widths. Other options would be roman shades or woven wood shades. While they have at least a 10″ stack when pulled up all the way, there are many choices of patterns and textures. It might be worth checking out the Window blinds options available to you online if you’re still not sure which direction you want to go in with your window or sliding door coverings.
If it stacks side to side you have to make sure you have a place for it to stack when it is open. For a more decorative option, we would recommend drapes on a pole with rings or grommets. A floral fabric will add color and pattern while a solid fabric adds texture and remains a backdrop for the room.
Don’t forget that sometimes one way privacy film for windows could also provide an interesting alternative to blinds, and you can still accessorize with colorful drapes whilst making the most of your room’s natural lighting.
