So Long Old Fashioned Window Treatments For Entry Door Sidelights In Orlando, FL!

Your entry door is a key design element of your Orlando home - and one that guests take note of as they’re knocking. Glass sidelights contribute to the beauty of the entry door. At the same time, they take away from your privacy. Say hello to window shutters. These window fashions are the ideal solution for your entry door sidelights.

 

A number of Orlando homeowners went with traditional window treatments for sidelights, like shades and blinds. But they may not have realized there’s a more fashionable choice: entry door sidelight shutters.

 

Shades and blinds could be the first window coverings that come to mind when it comes to sidelights. They’re available in home stores in sizes that may not be an exact fit for your entry door sidelights. And you’re familiar with how to set them up and open and close them.

 

Remember that shades and blinds for sidelights have some considerations to keep in mind before going shopping for them. First, they’re likely to sway any time the door is used, when the wind rattles the bars against the glass. This leads to unwanted noise. One way to fix that is to tie them down at the bottom. But this can potentially change the look and may not reduce the noise. Second, blinds and shades offer privacy but come up short in temperature control. The frail material does little to block the outside temperature - hot or cold. And third, neither shades nor blinds have the custom look that wows a guest as they come through the main door. Plantation shutters do.

 

 

Plantation shutters are the modernized window covering you’ve been shopping for in Orlando. Constructed from solid wood or wood synthetic, shutters for entry door sidelights are installed on the door’s frame while allowing the louvers to move. This way, opening and closing the front door does not create any noise.

 

Tilt the louvers closed, and plantation shutters give you total temperature control and privacy. Easily tilt the louvers using a tilt rod to see more of the light and the view. And with Polywood® plantation shutters, the louvers insulate against 30° of temperature and lessen airflow by up to 45%.

 

The charm of plantation shutters for sidelights isn’t limited to energy savings. With a collection of wood stains, louver sizes, frame styles, and a paint matching program, you can finally the modern style you love. Our specialists help you in deciding on custom window shutters for your entry sidelights. And we’ll set them up to fit your sidelights seamlessly.
