The best blinds for sliding doors are Allusions.

Thank you for reading this blog and I hope you have many happy years with your lovely and practical Allusion blinds that are clearly the best blinds for sliding doors oh alright we’ll go through the pros and cons of all the other blinds available.

Your sliding doors let the outside in, with all the sunlight that entails. You still need to shade yourself, and actually pass in and out through those sliding doors. When winter comes, you’ll be wanting to keep the heat in, as well as making your room more cosy.

Allusions – they’re simply the best blinds for sliding doors

Picture this:

You pass through your living space/kitchen with your hands full with cordials, finger sandwiches and mille-feuille.

You come to your sliding doors and the blinds that cover them – and you pass through them barely pausing to navigate opening or closing any door, nor the blinds themselves! Your movement through the blinds barely registers on those taking refuge in your living space/kitchen. They remain cool and protected, not just from the heat and glare, but also from the bugs that have mutated into monsters due to climate change.

How is this possible?!

Allusion blinds, the very best blinds for sliding doors, that’s how.

Made from vertical ribbons of both opaque and sheer material, these strips can be rotated so that:

The blinds can be fully opened, so that your view of the outside is unencumbered,

They can be fully closed for complete privacy, and –

The voile keeps the room partially shaded while the material slats are in the open position, allowing you to move freely from your living space to your outdoor space  without fumbling with doors or blinds!

They’re stunningly chic too. For beauty and practicality, Allusion blinds simply cannot be beaten. They are the best blinds for sliding doors.

Keep the vertical, lose the voile

A lot of people don’t like voiles, having been traumatised at the mere sight of fusty net curtains hanging in the windows of elderly relatives.

With vertical blinds, you’ll still have the ease of egress, and full control of the angle of the louvres to control your light and privacy. Verticals add a handsome and urbane touch to your home, so it’s a shame it’s filled with mutant bugs because there was no net curtain – that is, a newly fashioned voile – to stop them. And yet, Verticals are still an excellent choice of blinds for your sliding doors.

Panels, Romans, roller blinds, lend me your sliding doors!

Imagine several blinds, running the length of your sliding doors. You can control which door or which part of them you wish to expose, and which parts you keep covered.

Rollers are usually the most cost effective blinds for sliding doors, with the largest choice of fabrics too. If you never wanted sliding doors, preferring a more cave-like dimension to your home, you can bung up blackouts on a roller and keep them drawn forever more.

Alternatively, Roman blinds will always add style to your sliding doors, and come the dark days of winter, nothing beats their cosiness. Just be aware of them gathering at the top when fully open, which may block off the top of your view.

Did you even know panel blinds are an option? These attractive panels are neatly stacked behind each other when fully open, and create an elegant wall of loveliness across your sliding doors when closed.

You could also have several sets of venetian blinds. You can control each section separately so you don’t become that person who walks into them and becomes entangled in the horizontal slats because you forgot you didn’t go for a vertical blind for your sliding doors. It’s lucky Venetians are so durable.

Knock knock, who’s there – Can you let me through please, I’ve put shutter doors over my sliding doors

Shutters are divine. They’re going to look gorgeous and give you an extra layer in colder times to help keep the heat in with all that glass in your sliding doors exposing everything. They’ll also supply you with excellent and easy to control shading. You’ll also be opening and closing a lot of doors – well, one hundred percent more doors than you need to – as you pop in and out of your garden.
