Choosing sliding door blinds can be tricky because it is often not possible to install smaller blinds directly to the sliding panels. Instead, you can select blinds that either fit within the recess or outside of the recess. Because sliding doors are often quite large, it's a good idea to select a blind type which is available in extra-large sizes.
Sliding doors are usually fitted within large floor-to-ceiling openings and have multiple panels. To open the door, one or more of the panels will slide over the others. In the home, they are a fabulous way of giving access to gardens or terraces. They let in a great deal of natural light, allow a view of the outdoor space and make the room feel much bigger.
We have a full range of blinds for sliding doors below including vertical blinds which offer excellent privacy and glare control which can be varied by rotating the louvres. When fully opened, the louvres stack to one side of the recess. Extra-wide roller blinds are also a popular choice as when not required, they roll up to the top of the window out of the way. When deployed, they offer a clean aesthetic. For added convenience, they can be automated with an electric motor, which also removes the need for hanging chains. A different alternative is a panel blind, which we would recommend should be installed outside of the recess so that the panels slide and stack neatly past the opening and do not block any of the glass.
With all of our sliding door blinds, you can choose from opaque privacy or blackout fabrics. We also offer voile and screen fabrics which allow a slight view out, still letting in some diffused natural sunlight. Our blinds are custom made and we offer free samples of all fabrics by post!
