Be in Control: Window Coverings for Your Doors

Here in Ohio, our doors affect the comfort of our homes in tremendous ways. As high traffic areas, they offer ease of access to outdoor spaces, quick passage for friends, family, and of course, pets. Your doors, more than any other part of your home, need the correct window coverings. While it may depend on the style and location of your doors, they are probably letting in more light and air than you want. That can be very frustrating, especially during specific times of year.

 

What’s Out There?

Many homeowners feel that solutions don’t exist for doors. Or, if they do, they provide another element of complication. We are here to tell you that we can help! At Timan Window Treatments, we can show you the best window coverings for your doors! Options for light control, energy efficiency, privacy and style are just a phone call away. Here are just a few problems our clients face, with some of our favorite solutions…

 

You Want Privacy.

Sidelights, otherwise known as Privacy Windows, pose a tricky situation. Privacy Windows – a bit of an oxymoron – were styled to let light in, as well as let the homeowner catch a glimpse who is at the door. What’s the best way to dress them?

Silhouette Window Shadings

For the ultimate experience in adjustable light control, Silhouette Window Shadings provide a modern look with clean lines and an atmosphere of soft, filtered light. The tilt and adjustment of the vanes will direct the light, and the glare will be gone, thanks to the reflective sheer backing.

Window coverings will prevent the common frustrations we hear about.
