So Long Old Fashioned Window Treatments For Entry Door Sidelights In Boise, ID!

November 24, 2015
Your entry door is the first impression a guest has of your Boise home when they walk up to ring the bell. The sidelights on the sides add to the elegance of the front door. But, they reduce your overall privacy. This is where window coverings are the ideal option for your entry door sidelights.
 
A share Boise homeowners chose classic window treatments for sidelights, including shades and blinds. But there’s a more fashionable option: entry door sidelight shutters.
 

Shades & Blinds For Entry Door Sidelights

Shades and blinds could be the first window treatments you think of when you consider sidelights. They’re available in home stores in sizes that approximately fit your entry door sidelights. And youhave a grasp on how to mount them and open and close them.
 
But shades and blinds for sidelights have some considerations to keep in mind before going shopping for them. First, they’re likely to sway whenever the door is opened and closed, when the wind bounces the strips against the glass. This leads to unwanted noise. One solution 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 give you privacy but are poor at temperature control. The frail material fails to insulate against the external temperature - warm or chilly. And third, shades and blinds don’t have the customized style that wows a guest as they enter through the main door. Plantation shutters do.
