{"title":"Modern Shades \u0026 Blinds for Sliding Glass Doors","description":"\u003cp\u003eA modern sliding glass door is usually the biggest, plainest thing in the room: a slim black or white frame, a wall of glass and nothing else. That is the look, until the afternoon sun hits the floor or the glass turns into a mirror at night. Modern shades and blinds for sliding glass doors fix both without adding clutter. The aim is one flat plane of fabric, one clean line across the top, and hardware that matches the door frame instead of competing with it. Every shade here is made to measure for your opening and shipped direct to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich shades suit a modern slider\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour systems belong on this page because each keeps a flat face with nothing folding or stacking. \u003cstrong\u003eLight filtering roller shades\u003c\/strong\u003e are the everyday choice: soft daylight, privacy from the yard, and the fabric rolls away into the cassette when raised. \u003cstrong\u003eBlackout roller shades\u003c\/strong\u003e suit a slider in a bedroom or a media room. \u003cstrong\u003eSolar shades\u003c\/strong\u003e keep the view, which on a door to a garden or a pool is often the reason the door is there. Sunscreen fabric comes in 1, 3, 5 and 10 percent openness; a tighter weave cuts more glare, an opener one keeps more view. \u003cstrong\u003eZebra shades\u003c\/strong\u003e run alternating sheer and solid bands that slide past each other, so one shade moves between a screened view and a closed face without changing its profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoman, woven wood and cellular are left off on purpose. Soft folds and natural texture are their own style, and they live on our main sliding door page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWidths, heights and one shade across the door\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth is where a slider gets specific, and on a modern door one shade with one unbroken line usually looks best. On the squared CB-235 cassette, a light filtering roller reaches 98 3\/8 inches wide and 137 3\/4 inches high, while blackout and sunscreen fabric stop at 94 1\/2 by 118 inches, because the heavier goods are milled on narrower rolls. That covers a 6 foot slider easily and most 8 foot ones. For a wider opening, or a drop over 100 inches, the large CB-283 cassette with the 43 mm tube reaches 118 inches wide by 120 inches high in a single shade. Fabric roll width can lower any of these limits, so check the fabric you pick on a wide order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you would rather split the door, zebra can be built as two shades on one CB-268 headrail. As separate systems each half runs on its own, so you raise the side in front of the moving panel and leave the fixed side down. That cassette caps at 80 inches of drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eControls matter on a clean design. Cordless removes the chain from the side of the glass. Motorization removes the last visible control, with remote, wall switch or app operation that works with Alexa, Google Home and Apple HomePod. A motorized roller needs 8 to 10 inches more minimum width than a manual one, which is never an issue at slider sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeasuring and installing it yourself\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost sliders take an outside mount on the wall above the door. It clears the handle and the track, and it lets the cassette run past the frame on both sides, which stops light leaking at the edges. If you mount inside and a handle projects into the opening, ask for reverse roll, which hangs the fabric off the front of the tube to clear it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brackets take a 6 mm (0.2 inch) drill bit with screws at 1.1 inch spacing, and drywall and masonry anchors both come in the box. Two screws on opposite sides hold on a sound wall; above a door, use all four pre-drilled holes. Hook the valance groove onto the bracket latch, press back until it clicks, and check that the top and rear have both locked before you let go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the cleanest result, match the cassette to the door frame: black on a black aluminum slider, white on white vinyl, with grey and beige in between. Order samples, hold them against the frame in daylight, then send us your width and height.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"blackout-roller-shades","title":"Blackout Roller Shades","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single panel of blackout fabric on a smooth rolling tube, finished in a squared cassette that hides the roller and hardware.
