Follow the doorway
Choose a suitable draw direction and allow room for the gathered slats beside the opening.
VERTICAL BLINDS
Vertical blinds.
Room for the view.
Vertical slats offer an orderly finish for wider windows and glazed doors. Plan light control and the direction of the draw around the way you move through the room.
A FEW DETAILS TO CONSIDER
Plan the finish.
And the everyday use.
Turn the light
Tilt compatible slats to change the light and view, or draw them aside to open up the glazing.
Coordinate the finish
Compare available fabrics and materials with the colours, privacy needs and window treatments in adjoining rooms.
VERTICAL BLINDS IN REAL SPACES
Wide windows. Everyday access.
A balcony opening and a glazed corner show two uses for vertical slats. Plan the direction of the draw and the space needed for the gathered vanes.
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
See the options.
Ask the right questions.
What should I consider for a patio door?
Start with the side you normally use, door handles and nearby furniture. Confirm where the slats will gather so the window covering works with your route through the doorway.
Can vertical blinds also cover a window?
Yes. The corner-window example shows the vertical treatment across adjoining windows. The proposed track, mounting position and slat layout depend on your dimensions.
Are vertical blinds the same as Dream Curtains?
They are separate collections here. Compare the individual slats of vertical blinds with the flowing sheer-and-fabric treatment on our Dream Curtains page. See samples to choose the finish you prefer.
