Roller Door Blinds - There are few different options available to you here depending on what you type of doors you have at home. Roller door blinds can be installing mainly in two different ways. For patio doors or french doors the roller blinds can be attached to the doors themselves with the fabric sliding behind any operating handles. For sliding patio doors or bi folding doors attaching the blind to the door basically doesn't work, you will have to install the blind inside the recess or outside the recess if the doors open inwardly. This can be a tricky method of fitting blinds onto your doors so we do recommend giving our team a call to discuss as we want you to get it perfect and right first time so we do recommend giving our team a call to discuss as we want you to get it perfect and right first time.

Vertical door Blinds - Vertical blinds on doors are the original and traditional option which has been available before the new styles like perfect fit came along. This is still a very popular choice, especially in conservatories where the rest of the windows might also be in vertical blinds it is always good when you can get your products to match. Provided your doors open externally vertical blinds can be install on all types of doors. In most cases you will have a working door and a slave door, this simply means you will use one more than another, we recommend that the stack of the vertical blind slats are positioned on the slave door. This is simply to keep them out of the way as much as possible as door areas are high traffic areas.
