3 Patio Door Treatments to Keep the Heat Out & the Sunshine Streaming In

Drapery, Living Rooms, Motorization, Roller Shades, Soft Treatments, Window Treatments

We want to share the three best patio door treatments for privacy and style because many homes today have large sliding glass doors that offer great views and convenient access to outdoor spaces. I think they look even more polished when covered. Plus, covering them adds privacy. We will examine three favorite patio door treatment picks for the summer.

Option #1: The Effortless, Elegant Drapery Panel

Drapery is versatile for patio door treatments, offering excellent light control, enhanced privacy, and added insulation.  Its timeless, functional, and elegant design makes it a perfect fit for traditional homes. Because drapery has so many options, you may opt for only stationary panels to add color and texture while maintaining the view, or you may choose operable draperies in pinch pleats for a classic look or grommets for a contemporary feel for a stylish and practical solution for your patio doors.

Option #2: The Minimal, Modern SmartDrape

SmartDrape, a popular choice among our clients, offers a unique combination of style and convenience. Soft and delicate like drapery, SmartDrape™’s undulating sheer and fabric vane construction is stylish and versatile. It provides seamless indoor-outdoor living, allowing travel through the shade without opening or closing. Moreover, SmartDrape™ boasts easy maintenance as the fabric panels are machine washable, ensuring effortless cleaning for your convenience and the SmartDrape has a minimalist aesthetic, addresses privacy concerns while keeping your view, and slides effortlessly on smooth tracks. With many customizations available, including light filtering and blackout, SmartDrape offers a stress-free solution for your patio doors.

Option #3: The Versatile, Horizontal Roller Shade

Next, some clients prefer products that move up and down rather than vertically.  We have a specially sourced range of wide-width roller shade fabrics, meaning you can cover your patio door with a single roller shade without needing to put up with light gaps in the middle.  Select from blackouts, open-weave screens, and privacy fabrics depending on the primary use of your room.  This option is usually motorized, and large doors would require hard-wired motorization.  Roller shades are an excellent option for frequently accessed patio doors and provide a layer of insulation.  However, the cons may be that it has a more practical than beautiful look, but it is barely noticeable when raised.

Constant exposure to the sun’s powerful UV rays is bound to cause fading, discoloration, and damage to your floor, leather, and textiles over time.  Moreover, UV rays are just as potent on overcast and rainy days, so the sun doesn’t have to shine to cause damage.  Therefore, I encourage you to dress your patio doors to maximize comfort and beauty in your spaces.

Hopefully our review of these 3 best patio door treatments was helpful and inspiring.  Looking for a team that can dress your patio doors to delight? Please reach out! Your gorgeous treatments are just a phone call away.
