01
Outside Mount
Window treatments for the door will be mounted on the outside of the window because unlike regular windows, the French door window has no depth. It is important the window treatment you decide on can be mounted on the outside.
02
Door Handles
Your door will most likely have a handle that might get in the way of operating the window treatment. The solution is to buy shallow blinds that fit comfortably between the door and decorative handles. Most 1” blinds, roller shades and honeycomb shades will fit behind the door handle, assuming there is a 1 inch clearance.
03
Cordless Lift
If you plan to raise and lower your shade frequently, opt for a cordless systemto prevent cords from getting caught in the door seam while enhancing child and pet safety.
