Vertical Blinds Are the Best Solution for Sliding Glass Doors

Wednesday, October 5th, 2011

While there are many places that you can use vertical blinds one of the most popular uses for them is on sliding glass doors. Traditionally drapes have been the most often used window covering for these type of openings but they bring with them a number of problems. If your sliding glass door sweats at all and many of them do, your drapes will get wet, potentially stained and ruined.

Horizontal blinds do not make good choices not only because of how awkward they are to use when you are trying to use the doors for an entrance or exit but also because they do not tend to work well on opening that are as wide as a sliding glass door is. Vertical blinds combine the best of two worlds, you can use them like a curtain but they have all of the efficiency of a blind.
