French Door Window Treatments

French door window treatments that cover glass doors without blocking the swing, including door-mounted shades, sheer panels, cafe rods and blinds made for doors, installed to stay in place when the door moves.

French doors need a covering that moves with them and stays tidy when the door swings. Door-mounted treatments are made for exactly that. Homeowners in Nashville use them on patio, office and bedroom doors.

We choose products made for doors, including cordless shades with hold-down brackets, sheer panels on small rods, café curtains and blinds that attach to the door. We measure the glass and check the handle, the swing and the depth for each door. We install hardware so the covering does not rattle or swing and discuss privacy at night and light control during the day. French doors move, and coverings must move with them. We open and close the door several times during the visit and test how a treatment sits at each point in the swing. That simple test reveals problems with handles, hinges and trim that are easy to solve now and annoying to fix later. We also test how the covering looks from outside at night, since glass doors are often visible from the street and the treatment should look as good from the yard as it does from the room.

Choose door-ready products

Door shades and panels are made to attach to the door and stay put when it opens and closes.

Check the handle and swing

We measure around hardware and the swing so the covering does not catch.

Stop the rattle

Hold-downs and brackets keep coverings still when the door moves.

Plan privacy
