Top Hunter Douglas Sidelight Window Coverings

Select Sheer Shades for Graceful Style and UV Protection

Like any window, the sunlight coming through sidelight windows brings the beauty of natural illumination and the risk of UV exposure. Prolonged UV exposure can cause irreversible damage to many household items, including the flooring, wall decor, and any furnishings in your entryway. The sheer textiles in Silhouette® Sheer Shades protect home interiors by filtering out harmful UV rays while allowing soft, natural illumination. Plus, the ethereal feel of sheer materials helps give the treatment its graceful sense of style.

Sidelight Shutters are a Safer Window Treatment Option

Plantation-style shutters are the only option for sidelight window coverings that automatically feature a cord-free operating system, as their tilting louvers use a tilt bar for control. No hanging cords means young children and small pets can enjoy worry-free play. Additionally, the lack of dangling cords also gives the window treatment a clean and open look.

Choose Sidelight Blinds for Durability for Privacy

Made with aluminum vanes, Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds are incredibly durable and can withstand high-traffic areas like the front door. With metal front door sidelight blinds, homeowners can expect years of hassle-free use. Plus, the smaller slat and space sizes on these front door sidelight blinds provide better security, blocking more of the view in one of your home’s most exposed areas.

Vertical Sheer Panels Provide Chic Style and Easy Maintenance

The orientation of vertical sheer panels brings a unique look to your home’s interiors. When Hunter Douglas crafted a hybrid sheer vertical blind, Luminette® Sheer Panels, they created front door sidelight blinds with the functionality of traditional blinds, the gracefulness of sheer shades, and the flowing drapery style.

Choose Cellular Shades for Superior Insulation and Style

Among the options from Hunter Douglas for sidelight window treatments, cellular shades are unmatched in their insulating ability. Their interior honeycomb construction creates air pockets that help block unwanted energy loss through the underlying window, resulting in better energy efficiency in any room they occupy, including the entryway. Since Hunter Douglas Duette® Cellular Shades fit a variety of specialty window shapes and doors, homeowners can use them to coordinate style throughout their household.
