ROOM BY ROOM
Where vertical blinds earn
their place in a Florida home.
Vertical blinds are the most practical cover for a sliding glass door. They aren’t the most decorative. Here’s the honest version, room by room.
01
Sliding glass doors
The vanes open sideways, so you walk straight through without lifting anything. Rotate them for light and privacy while the door stays easy to use.
02
Wide windows and window walls
One track covers an opening that would take several horizontal blinds, and the vanes line up in a single, clean run from end to end.
03
Rentals and busy family doors
PVC vanes are affordable, moisture-proof and easy to replace one at a time if a pet or a kid snaps one.
04
Replacing old, broken verticals
Cracked vanes, a sticking track or a chain that skips? We’ll tell you honestly whether new vanes will do or the whole blind should be replaced.
05
Want a softer, finished look? Consider drapery on a track
Drapery on a ceiling or wall track opens the same way and softens a big glass wall. It costs more, but it gives a living room slider the most finished look.
06
Want it to match your windows? Consider shutters
Plantation shutters on bypass or bifold panels give a slider the same built-in look as the rest of the house. They cost more and need room to open.
YOUR WINDOWS. YOUR FINISH.
Vertical blinds,
finished for each room.
Sliding doors, home offices and wide windows, each finished with the vane, track and controls the room needed. Every measurement and mount is reviewed with you as part of the installation plan.
