Forget the welcome mat, entryway shades should be what invites your guests in. It’s about combining style and function right from the start. Natural light creates a welcoming atmosphere. But, your privacy equals comfort, so that’s a top priority for safety. Let’s walk right into some window covering features that would look great in your entryway.
Privacy with Light Included!
A great combination is natural, glowing light with privacy. More specifically, adjustable privacy. We strongly suggest the top down feature since it does make both possible.
This type of feature even works great on two separate shades. It allows for individual operation to allow for a more customized light/privacy control experience.
Light: Filtering to Blocking
Entryways that face the sunshine are in constant need of control. This can change from light filtering to light blocking. For this situation, we suggest sheer shades. They allow a large range of light control.
Silhouette sheer shades have the ability to cut the glare but still have the view-through sheerness. Most of these shades can reflect the sun for an increase in energy efficiency and privacy.
Luminette Privacy Sheers filter light and provide an outdoor view. If you want to block the light, it’s simple to just rotate the veins closed. Homeowners highly rate these entryway shades for their sliding doors.
Specialty Windows
They look amazing, but uniquely shaped windows can be tricky to cover. In most cases they are also hard to reach which makes smart shades a great solution.
Honeycomb shades come in first place for the most amount of features. They are well-known for room darkening, motorization, energy efficiency & more! They’re also a terrific way to cover uniquely shaped windows.
Narrow Door Frames
The Duette Shades collection has a unique option, TrackGlide. They are ideal for narrow doors and french doors. Because there might not be room for drilling hardware to install the shades, they are the perfect solution.
Doors & Locks
Another thing to consider in choosing the best window covering option is where the handles or levers are–and how they are affected. Many of our collections include low-profile options so you can go in and out without an issue. Plantation shutters can be customized to avoid the issues handles and locks can introduce.
