Top 5 Vertical Window Coverings Solutions
In practically all houses and residential condos in Ontario and Greater Toronto Area have either sliding glass patio or balcony doors or double French doors. The sliding glass doors in particular are typically used as a way to access a backyard or a balcony. They are often situated in an area of the home with other adjacent windows. Coordinating the look of the window coverings between the sliding glass doors and the adjacent windows is a frequent question we receive. Homeowners prefer to be able to vertically slide their blinds/shades used on the sliding doors but need a horizontally orientated solution for the adjacent windows. What vertical window coverings options are available?
1. Fabric Vertical Blinds
This could be one of the most economical options. Fabric vertical blinds operate just like a regular PVC vertical blind except that the vanes are made of fabric. This not only give the blind a softer look suitable for residential applications, but the fabric allows for natural light to filter in while the blind is closed.

2. Vertical Honeycomb Shade
Trendy Blinds offers the only Vertical Honeycomb blinds in Canada that are compliant with Health Canada Corded Window Coverings regulation SOR /2019-97. The slim track and shadeprofile allows it to fit inside mount in shallow depth (due to protruding patio door handles)applications. Honeycomb shades are available in sheer, light filtering and blackout fabric choices that can also be used for horizontal honeycomb shades for adjacent windows to match.
3. Vertical Sheer Shade
Vertical sheer shades come in several forms, but the basic design is to have soft vertical vanes linked together by sheer fabric to give a drape like appearance but with the added functionality of vertical vanes that can be tilted open and closed for privacy and light control. At Trendy Blinds we offer three different styles of vertical sheer shades and automated control options are available.
4. Drapery or Sheers
A modern wave drapery panel with stack one way can be an excellent solution as it opens up access to thousands of fabric choice available for custom drapery. If you plan to do drapery in other parts of the house, using drapery for the sliding patio door might be a good unifying design choice.

5. Shutters
Bifold or bypass shutters can be an option if you want a hard material solution. Due to the bulky design, these are typically installed outside mount.
