At Barrows Custom Window Treatments, we strive to cover your windows with the finest of window fashions, whether that means bringing homeowners traditional designs or the latest in operating technologies. Our Barrows Consultants are skilled at finding the intersection between fashion and function and we work closely alongside you to find the window treatment that not only regulates the lighting in your space but also reflects your own personality.
Our Hunter Douglas window treatment selection lets us cover even your most unique windows, and our vertical blinds will cover even your wall-to-ceiling windows, sliding glass doors, and other large glass panes with immeasurable style.
Vertical blinds cover your windows with less material than drapes, making them more maneuverable for entryways and the ideal window fashions for minimalistic interior styles. Their vinyl, fabric, or metal vanes collect less dust than horizontal blind slats, an advantage when your blinds cover a glass door that leads to an outdoor area. Some fabric vanes can even be removed and machine-washed. Finally, vertical blinds’ easy, side-to-side operation makes them the perfect blinds for sliding glass doors because they provide you full and uninhibited access between your indoor and outdoor living areas without a fuss.
Hunter Douglas Vertical Blinds
Hunter Douglas has reimagined the vertical blind that first came to prominence in the 1950s. Hunter Douglas offers five floor-to-ceiling solutions, from beautiful vertical sheers to bold panel-track blinds. Use them to confidently control your room’s light and privacy no matter the size of your windows.
Luminette® Sheer Panels
Luminette® Sheer Panels allow you to coordinate your Hunter Douglas sheers between your large and small windows. Luminette® Sheer Panels consist of high-end sheer fabrics that gently diffuse even the strongest sunlight into beautifully soft interior light. See more about our other sheers shades here.
Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds
Enjoy cityscape views or divide your space with panel-track blinds. Skyline® Panel-Track Blinds are window panels that slide like doors for full coverage when in use and a minimally obstructed view when stacked away. Top treatments add to their unique look while a bottom weight keeps panel movement consistent. Panels come in 11 ½” and 17” styles to accommodate your different window widths.
Cadence® Vertical Blinds
Cadence® Vertical Blinds are a work of art. Their soft fabric or vinyl vanes have been thoughtfully constructed to mimic the lines of drapery with the advantage of more adjustable light control. The special patented headrail allows them to be moved from multiple positions, making them great blinds for patio doors.
Somner® Vertical Blinds
Somner® Vertical Blinds consist of combinations of fabrics, colors, and textures you won’t find on any other window treatments. Homeowners can choose from simple and classic off-whites to beautifully thatched bamboo vertical blind slats. Homeowners can truly create their own vertical blinds with over 170 colors, materials, and fabrics.
Vertical Solutions® Vertical Blinds
Vertical Solutions® Vertical Blinds are simplicity at its finest. These fabric and vinyl vertical blinds use subtle textures and colors to blend effortlessly and artfully with the rest of your room. Adjust the slats to achieve your desired lighting and draw attention to your art while keeping it and the rest of your interiors protected from UV damage.
Vertical Blind Enhancements
As vertical blinds are common and sensible choices for glass doors and other entryways, it’s important they can withstand the wear of daily traffic. Keep your vertical blinds looking their best with complementing top treatments such as the dust cover valance, which shields your vertical blinds from collecting dust and dirt.
Our Hunter Douglas window treatment selection lets us cover even your most unique windows, and our vertical blinds will cover even your wall-to-ceiling windows, sliding glass doors, and other large glass panes with immeasurable style.
Vertical Blind Operating Systems
PowerView® Automation
Open your blinds in the morning, close them at dark, and adjust them throughout the day all from the comfort of wherever you are. PowerView® Automation utilizes powerful Bluetooth technology that allows you to operate your Luminette® Sheer Panels or Skyline® Panel Track Blinds with a remote, the PowerView® app, or your favorite smart home system.
PermAssure®
The PermAssure® Safety Wand replaces long unsightly cords with a simple push and pull wand that directs your vertical blind vanes with a gentle forward and back motion.
Traveling Wand
The Traveling Wand on Luminette® Privacy Sheers is another streamlined, cordless option for your vertical blinds. Pull across your window for coverage and push back for your view, and twist the wand to tilt your vanes for accurate and elegantly nuanced light control.
Other operating options include a cord loop, wand, and wand-and-cord combination. Discuss what you want from your vertical blinds with one of our Barrows Consultants, and we’ll match you with an operating system that works for you.
