Window Coverings for French Doors

The French doors in your home are not only beautiful, but they’re also functional. They allow you to bring the outdoors inside without compromising on privacy or comfort. But when dressing these tall windows with French doors, there’s a lot to consider: How much light do you want to let in? How do you want to open and close them? How much privacy control do you need? What style do you want? What color should they be?

What to Consider when Choosing Treatments for French Doors

When choosing window treatments for French doors, the first thing to consider is the privacy needs of the room. If privacy is of the utmost concern, you’ll want to choose window treatments that can fully cover the windows, block all sight, and are easy to adjust. If, instead, you want to preserve your views of the outdoors, go for thinner treatments. That way, instead of blocking light, you can transform it and keep the outdoors in sight.

Another thing to consider when choosing window treatments for French doors is how much light you want in a given space. If there aren’t any other windows in an area, you may want to let the light come through your doors to keep the space bright. If a room is already full of windows, some shades to block out light could help keep the room from being too hot or sunny.

Finding the Right Window Treatment for Your French Doors

After considering all of the different requirements that window treatments for your French doors will have to fulfill, you can begin to search through our catalog and see which window treatment options will work for you.

For those who prioritize privacy, we’d recommend something like Hunter Douglas Solera® Roman Shades. These shades are the perfect option for controlling sight lines and light. Their sumptuous fabric and excellent construction mean that they not only look good hanging on your French doors, but they also will function precisely the way you want them to.

If you want shades that preserve your sightlines instead, we recommend Silhouette® Sheer ShadesPirouette® Sheer Shades, or Luminette® Sheer panels. These window treatments transform the light that enters your home rather than blocking it out. You can keep your view of the outdoors while providing protection from the harshest sun and get a beautiful accent to your home!
