Sliding Glass Door Blinds in Toronto
Getting the right blinds for a set of sliding glass doors isn’t as easy as it sounds. Doors are not the primary concern for most blinds designs. Even those that might work for floor to ceiling windows may be problematic on something meant to move. If you need sliding glass door blinds, you need to come to Domir Blinds. Here are some of our options that may appeal to you.
Blinds That Won’t Move
If you want blinds for a glass door that slides or swings open, blinds that move around can be a massive pain. In either case, each time you open the door, the blinds will end up knocking around and making a lot of racket. So, step #1 for sliding glass door blinds is finding blinds that don’t move around.
Accomplish this in one of two ways: get blinds that secure to your door, or get blinds that aren’t attached to the door at all.
Attaching blinds to a glass door with a wooden frame around it, like one that swings open and has a large glass panel in the center, is easy. You can buy little anchors and screw them into the bottom panel of the door. Then, blinds can snap into the anchors. Many types of blinds have a small hole in the bar at the bottom for doing just this. Those that don’t may have a small hole drilled into them to allow them to be anchored. Then, blinds can be popped out of the anchors when you want to raise them.
However, for doors that are glass all the way down, or with a metal frame, you can buy and attach suction cups to the bottom bar of your blinds. You can suction these to the glass to prevent your blinds from swinging around.
Additionally, you can also avoid clunky, moving blinds by installing something like sheer vertical blinds. You attach these to the wall above your sliding glass doors. Get a sheer protective layer that filters UV, or even a blackout layer, with the use of sheer vertical blinds.
Motorized, Automated Blinds
If your sliding glass doors provide a lot of the light in the room they’re in, you may want to regularly open and close them with the sun. Automating your sliding glass door blinds with motorized blinds technology is the perfect solution. Bathe your living room in morning sun and keep your privacy when the sun sets without lifting a finger.
Motorized blinds are possible with any style that lifts and lowers. We fit the motor behind the fascia attached to the wall. Motorized blinds are perfect for people who are busy, have accessibility needs, or who own large houses with many windows.
