Our Sliding Door Solutions
Sliding glass doors and large windows need coverings that look elegant while still being practical. Here are our most popular options:
Panel tracks are one of the sleekest solutions for sliding doors. These wide fabric panels glide smoothly along a track, stacking neatly to the side when you want an unobstructed view. With a wide range of fabric options, from sheer to room-darkening, panel track shades are perfect for creating a modern focal point while offering more light control and privacy.
Vertical cellular shades are an energy-efficient solution for patio doors. Their unique honeycomb design traps air, adding insulation to keep your home more comfortable year-round. Available in sheer, light-filtering, and room-darkening fabrics, they combine functionality with soft, elegant style. Vertical cellular shades are especially popular in Canadian homes where energy efficiency is a key concern.
A classic choice for sliding glass doors, vertical blinds remain one of the most versatile and durable options. They offer excellent light control, simple operation, and are available in a wide range of patterns, textures, and colours to match your décor. Vertical blinds are also one of the most low-maintenance choices for high-traffic sliding doors. They're perfect for busy families with kids or pets.
For a clean, modern look, roller shades are a timeless favourite. They roll up neatly at the top of the door frame, creating minimal obstruction when not in use. With fabric options ranging from sheer to room-darkening, roller shades give you flexible control over natural light while maintaining sleek lines. They’re also available with motorized features for convenient operation.
Curtains and drapery bring softness, texture, and a touch of elegance to sliding door blind solutions. They can be layered with sheers for daytime light diffusion and paired with room-darkening panels for evening privacy. Drapery also adds insulation, making it both stylish and functional. For homeowners looking to create a dramatic focal point, curtains and drapes are a timeless choice.

Tips For Choosing The Right Window Covering
When it comes to choosing window treatments for sliding doors, there are a few key factors to consider:
-
Lifestyle & traffic: If your patio door is a high-traffic entrance, durability and low-maintenance should be top of mind. Vertical blinds or vertical cellular shades are excellent choices.
-
Privacy vs. light: Do you want unobstructed views of your backyard, or do you prefer more privacy? Sheer fabrics let in natural light, while room-darkening shades keep spaces private.
-
Energy efficiency: In Canadian climates, insulation matters. Cellular shades add an extra layer of comfort.
-
Personal style: Panel track shades and drapery let you make a design statement, while roller shades provide a minimalist, modern look.
Convenience: If you use your patio door often, sliding panels or vertical blinds may be the most functional option. Motorized window treatments are also great for large, hard-to-reach doors.
