Best Window Treatments for Sliding Glass Doors in Sammamish

Some windows are easier than others to determine which window treatment best fits your home, style, and window. You’ve got your Sammamish bedroom figured out, the kitchen looking spiffy, and the home office has the perfect level of lighting. What about the sliding glass door? You love having one in your home - it creates an open, light feel with the extra natural light and efficient outlet into the beautiful outdoors of the Pacific Northwest. But when it comes to window treatments, what is best? Is there a way to have the style you love, with the coverage, privacy, and practicality you need? In one simple word: yes! Below, Budget Blinds lays out the best options for you and your sliding glass doors.

Vertical Blinds

Typically the most used window treatments for the sliding glass door, vertical blinds are popular due to their no hassle and practical appeal. We’re sure you’ve seen them in action in many homes, apartments, and office buildings. They have multiple operation options including chain control, wand tilt, right draw, left draw, and split draw for personalized control of your view. They can also be cordless or motorized, kid and pet-friendly.

When you think of vertical blinds, you probably picture the generic white or off-white version. But did you know there are many more options? Bring on the class and elegance while still using vertical blinds. You can choose Vinyl vertical blinds, available in a beautiful array of vinyl patterns and hundreds of colors. They are highly durable and can withstand strong heat, direct sunlight, and high humidity. Or, you could opt for fabric vertical blinds that also have a wide variety of colors and weaves (to add texture to the room), yet still, continue looking crisp and wrinkle-free because they have invisible sewn-in weights.    

Vertical Blind Alternatives

Not necessarily into the classic vertical blind look? No worries, Bothell Budget Blinds has several options that will bring a unique flair to your space perfect for living in Washington, while still providing the practical functionality of your sliding glass door.
