Smart Door and Window Treatments for Busy Entryways
Entries and mudrooms take a lot of abuse, so you need window treatments that can handle the traffic without sacrificing light or privacy. One of the biggest challenges we face is creating a back door that blends in with the rest of the windows in the room. This "flow" is especially vital in open-concept entryways where the front door and living room windows are visible at once. Appalachian Blind & Closet Co has been the local expert in the High Country and Tri-Cities since 1993, specializing in custom entryway window treatments for doors that big-box retailers cannot match.
Transform Your Space with Smart Doors and Window Treatments
To help you transform your space, we have a variety of options, including flexible cellular shades and reimagined vertical blinds. Perfect for Boone winters, cellular or honeycomb shades offer insulation. The shades also feature top-down and bottom-up options, allowing for privacy while still letting in light. We prioritize low-profile door mounting, ensuring your shades stay flush against the glass without catching on clothing as you pass. Additionally, they are cordless, which is the gold standard for safety in busy areas.
If you have a back door with blinds, you might be avoiding vertical shades because they feel a bit '80s. But modern verticals have come a long way with new textures that look great on sliding doors or wide entries. The main thing is choosing a style that won't bang against the handle or get in the way when you're coming and going.
Seamlessly Create a Cohesive Look for Your Entryway with Door and Window Treatments
To ensure a cohesive look in your entryway, you need to find a way to match across different media. An ideal way to do this is to use the same fabric or color palette across various types of door and window treatments. By pulling tones from your existing flooring or wall paint into the headrails and fabrics, you turn a functional necessity into a curated design feature. For example, you can use a cellular shade on a standard window and a matching vertical version on a nearby slider. Another easy way is to select hardware finishes (brackets and headrails) that complement the existing door hardware in your mudroom.
Discover the Importance of Professional Precision for Door and Window Treatments
Doors present challenges that standard windows don't, especially when you're working around handles and narrow inserts. We take exact measurements that account for the 'depth' of your door's molding so your shades don't get caught or rub. It's the difference between a project that looks okay and one that works perfectly every time. "Off-the-shelf" solutions usually fail to fit the unique architectural styles of Blowing Rock or Banner Elk. Appalachian Blind & Closet Co handles these technical details, ensuring your treatments remain secure even with heavy daily use.
