Hunter Douglas Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds near Vista, California (CA)

At The Drapery Shop, we carry new and modern window treatment selections from Hunter Douglas. From elegant fabric shades to organic wood treatments to insulating coverings and the latest in vertical blind design, you’ll find it all amongst our vast collection of window and door treatments.

Interesting Fabric Treatments for Your Doors

At The Drapery Shop, we offer several styles of door coverings that are made from fabric. Fabric is an excellent insulator that can also muffle sound. It’s also available in a range of opacities for light filtering or room darkening treatments. These window treatments benefit not only from the environmental control that fabric provides but also from the diverse aesthetic that comes from a wide selection of fabric choices.

  • Drapery: Design Studio™ Custom Drapes have a wide range of fabric options including exclusive designer prints for elegant door coverings.
  • Sheer Shades: Luminette® Sheer Panels combine the gracefulness of sheer fabrics with the functionality of blinds to create modern soft shades for sliding glass doors.

Door Coverings with Energy Efficiency In Mind

Windows and doors can let the outside air in or the inside air out if they’re not properly insulated. Cellular honeycomb shades were designed for energy savings year-round and have both horizontal and vertical operating systems for both window and door applications.

  • Cellular Shades: Duette® Cellular Shades utilize air pockets sewn into the fabric of the treatment itself to create an insulating layer over windows or doors.

Organic Materials Elevate Views

Using natural materials in window treatment design has long been a common practice. Wood’s organic beauty and innate strength makes it an ideal building material. This is true for door coverings, as they benefit from the durability of wood and its natural aesthetic charm.

  • Shutters: Plantation-style shutters can work for several different types of doors including sliding glass doors, patio doors, and French doors with bi-fold track, sliding panel, or standard hinged designs. Hunter Douglas has three styles of shutters: NewStyle® Composite Shutters, Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters, and Heritance® Wood Shutters.
  • Woven Wood Shades: Unlike the traditional hard aesthetic of wooden window treatments, Provenance® Woven Wood Shades has a softer feel with fabrics and textiles woven from woods, grasses, bamboo, and reeds.

Try Vertical Blinds for Innovative Design

When vertical blinds were invented in the 1950s, they were revolutionary because of their ability to traverse side to side, making them a perfect option for shades for sliding glass doors. Their design is still heavily utilized in homes, with both classic styles of blinds still available alongside modern reimagining of the vertical treatment.

  • Classic Vertical Blinds: Maintaining the efficient design of classic vertical blinds, modern versions of this vertical treatment continue to provide light control and privacy when used as shades for sliding glass doors. Hunter Douglas has two types of vertical blinds: Somner® Vertical Blinds and Cadence® Vertical Blinds
  • Panel-Track Blinds: A modern re-design of vertical blinds, panel-track blinds use fabric panels in lieu of smaller vanes that traverse side-to-side on tracks. This creates a visually striking fabric display when closed and completely unobstructed views when the panels are slid open and stacked to the side.
