Curtain rods and curtains with sheers. Elegant and you can change them when you like. Also a lot less costly
0:34 look at the idiot in the center with his left hand in his pocket and right behind him.
Excellent video, thank you. For the sliding panels, in the video it looks like 2.5’ is wasted on the right side (meaning is covered and not openable), is this the minimum that can be wasted for a 12’ wide covering? Can that part be overlapping a wall to the side of the sliding doors so it doesn’t block the windows? Is the track deeper on the far right to stack the panels? And finally, does anyone make a control integrated to Google assistant? Thanks and great video.
What do you call the drapes and track system in your video starting at 1:28? How does the one panel drapery slide past the two inner support brackets? It must work differently than grommet draperies cuz with those, you need a separate drape panel between each support bracket.
Quality window coNverings?
Plantaion Shutters?
Proofreading is important.
Not professional.
Wonderful video Chris! I'll check into your site. Thanks so much.
Smart glass privacy film. Allows 100% image blur at the push of a button or set to change on a timer (8pm at nightetc.)
Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video. Very helpful.
What about installing honeycomb shaded up and down like the rest of the windows in the room? I'd prefer the look to be uniform.

Hate them slates.
Sliding Panels are so elegant. Thanks for the info!
Short & sweet with all necessary information. Great review.
Typo: plantation shutters, not plantaion shutters.😃
Thank you for this video. We are building a new home and our back door aka tug away door is 23 feet. I had no idea what to do but the shade on the outside of the Lanai will work perfectly for us😊
Thank you so much for this video
We are specialized in producing all kinds of sunshine blinds, rolling blinds, zebra blinds,fabric and ready blinds.
Can you get the bandage shades on one 12' length?
I had no idea vertical honeycomb existed, and motorized no less. Oh, and whoever invented regular vertical blinds must be in hell right now, why do places insist on using these terrible things.
Hi, thanks for this great video! What’s the material of the drapes? Thanks
Gotta say–you've got a few typos in the text in the video, doesn't create a good impression re: attention to detail for an old editor like me!
Loved this video, clear and to the point, very pleasant presenter. I didn't know there were so many types of (very cool) blinds. What states do you work out of? Do you have free estimates? Thanks.
Thanks I was looking for this information. Thanks
Dako has some nice window coverings (mostly blinds) they are reasonably cheap and look good.
WELL DONE MAN. CHEERS FROM NY..
Do they make those Between-Glass blinds for sliding glass doors? They look great on front doors.
I had those side to side panels that stack up. Really liked them, but the top looked unfinished. What can you do to hide that?
This guy has a beautiful bottom 🥰 Should display it more 😁
Thanks, Chris!
Sorry I was distracted by your handsomeness. Can you redo the video? 😁
Hate verticals with a passion. Sliding panels are wonderful.
How do I hang draperies with the support hooks in the middle of the rod? Wont those get in the way when I try to slide the drapes open/close?
I use a Roman shade from Hunter Douglas. On each side of the doors I hung an antique swing rod with open panel. I hate to see an empty rod strung across the empty space of the doors.
Thanks for these options.
Keep up the good work. This was exactly what I needed to know.
I had verticals on my sliding glass doors when I first moved into my condo….awful, cheap looking,then I went eith curtains….just as bad,they looked heavy and dated, then I went with custom made full length shutters,they were expensive, but worth it,best investment ever,timeless and elegant, they transformed the room.
I like the roller shade.
Great video
You spelt Plantation wrong.
