Try These Window Treatment Ideas for Sliding Glass Doors Near Bellevue, WA

Even if your sliding glass door leads into your private backyard, choosing large window treatments are a good idea because they protect your belongings from UV rays and block glare. They also provide privacy, so you don’t need to worry about the nosey neighbor next door trying to see what you’re up to.

Hunter Douglas NewStyle® Composite Shutters near Bellevue, Washington (WA)

But you don’t need to rely on vertical blinds alone to find full coverage for your sliding glass doors or large windows. At The Blind Alley in Bellevue, Washington, we carry Hunter Douglas products and have many window treatment ideas for sliding glass doors that will beautify your space and make it more functional. Check out our top suggestions that are different from the usual vertical blind solutions.

Choose Interior Shutters Near Bellevue, WA

Classic shutters add luxury and elegance to any space. For your sliding glass doors, you can select a bi-fold or bypass sliding option to open them. The louvers are fully maneuverable, so you can adjust them for light and privacy as you need. Consider any of the three styles of Hunter Douglas shutters for sliding glass doors:

  • Heritage® Wood Shutters use hardwood poplar or basswood from sustainably managed forests and are constructed using Truemill® dovetail construction.
  • NewStyle® Composite Shutters mimic the look of natural wood, but they’re made from a durable composite. They’re constructed using the same Truemill® dovetail construction as our 100% hardwood offering.
  • PalmBeach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are constructed to withstand heat, moisture, and UV rays, so they won’t warp, crack, or fade, even in high temperatures.

Hunter Douglas Vertiglide™ and Duette® Cellular Shades 

Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades can also go on your sliding glass doors when you use the Hunter Douglas Vertiglide™ system. Hunter Douglas Vertiglide™ allows you to slide your cellular shade side to side on your sliding glass doors. Cellular shades are formed from layers of fabric shaped into honeycomb cells, which trap air and adhere to your window, acting like a layer of insulation that makes your home more energy efficient and absorbs sound.

This is perfect for your sliding glass doors because they’re available in semi-sheer, semi-opaque, opaque, and room-darkening fabrics, so you can have as much or as little light filtration as you want.

Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades

Hunter Douglas Silhouette® Sheer Shades use two layers of sheer fabric with opaque fabric vanes formed into an s-shape between them. As you twist the vanes, you control the amount of light that flows through your sheers. When interlocked, you can get more private living conditions. When they’re open, you have virtually unobstructed natural light. Still, the sheer fabric softens it and blocks UV rays, which prevents damage to your belongings.
