Best Shades For French Doors

Your French doors make for an excellent feature, whether they face inside your home and provide entry to an office or sunroom, or whether they open up to an outdoor space like a porch or balcony.

Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades for French Doors near Bellevue, Washington (WA

When it comes time to cover these surfaces, shades from the big box store won’t fit nearly as well or look as good as custom Hunter Douglas shades. Not every shade can be cut to fit your French door and operate on it effectively, but we can help. So go beyond blinds when you think about how to cover your French doors—consider custom Roman shades, cellular shades, and roller shades from our team at The Blind Alley!

If you’re looking for French door shades near Bellevue, Washington, visit the Blind Alley. We’ll show you the top Hunter Douglas window treatments for your French doors and work with you to customize them to suit your home perfectly.

Consider these new suggestions to get started.

Banded Roller Shades for French Doors

Hunter Douglas Designer Banded Shades are a style of roller shade that incorporates two distinct fabric styles in alternating strips. One of the bands is a sheer shade, and the other is semi-opaque, opaque, or room-darkening, depending on how much light and privacy you want. When you align the sheer bands, you can have a large amount of natural light and an excellent view of the outside. When the opaque bands overlap the sheer bands, you boost privacy and reduce your view, like a traditional blind.

These are an excellent choice for your French doors because they offer a soft solution that you can easily adjust to see outside when you want. They’re also available in numerous colors and interesting geometric shapes, so you can choose what’s most complementary to your interior design.

Sonnette® Roller Shades

Sonnette® Roller Shades from Hunter Douglas marry roller shades with an energy-efficient cellular design. Modern and simplistic, adding this roller shade to your French door reduces the air that passes through and impacts your home. Since they’re made from semi-opaque and opaque fabrics, you can add a ClearView® Sheer to easily see through.

If energy efficiency is important, consider our most energy-efficient shade for your French doors, Duette® Cellular Shades.

Vignette® Roman Shades for French Doors

These French door shades provide an elegant shape to your window. Made with rolling or stacking layers of fabric, Hunter Douglas Vignette® Roman shades are warm and sophisticated. The fabrics are available in sheer to room-darkening fabrics, so you can select the light you let in and your view. You can also add an independently-operated dual shade with the Duolite® feature if you want to enjoy the best of both worlds.

Vignette® Roman Shades can stack like the traditional Roman shade and they can be mointed to the inside of your French doors. Decide whether you like the flat or full folds and customize your fabric option to suit your style.
