The Best Window Treatments for Enclosed Decks and Patios
If you have an enclosed patio, you need some type of protection from the late afternoon or early morning sun, especially if you’re fond of having your family or friends out on your patio or deck regularly. At Blinds Plus, we offer window coverings for enclosed decks and patios that can offer increased light and temperature control, as well as stunning aesthetics for your space. With years of experience in the window treatment industry and in the local area, we know exactly what you need and can balance that with your design style to find the best options for you, whether it’s a room inside your home or one that you’ve enclosed recently, we’re here for our local community.
What Are Enclosed Decks and Patios?
An enclosed patio is a space attached to a home or business that is separated from the outdoors with either screens or glass and is at ground level. For homes, this might be a space approximately the size of a living room. For businesses, this space can vary in size and often serves as additional seating when the weather is nice.
Similarly, an enclosed deck is a space typically attached to a home that is elevated above ground level and is separated from the outdoors via glass windows or screen netting. Some businesses may have an enclosed deck as well, though they’re much less common than a patio.
Custom Outdoor Window Shades
When we hear about installing window treatments in enclosed spaces for homes and businesses, our first thought turns toward outdoor deck shades and patio shades. That’s because there are a couple of options for sleek, space-saving window shades that are perfect for enclosed patios and decks. We recommend looking at Hunter Douglas Provenance® Woven Wood Shades and Designer Roller Shades. Both of these offer a sleek profile, protection from sunlight, and ease of use in your space.
The difference between the two shades is that woven wood shades often fit eclectic, rustic, and boho chic styles with materials such as grasses, bamboo, and wood. Meanwhile, roller shades can come in many colors but often fit modern, minimalist, and industrial interior design styles.
What About Outdoor Deck Blinds?
Blinds often take up more space and aren’t well-suited to spaces enclosed with screen netting. They do work in spaces enclosed by glass windows, though the size of the window is a factor to consider when you’re looking for the perfect window treatments. Hunter Douglas blinds also come in many different materials and styles, which can match any aesthetic your home may have. Overall, they’re less popular for enclosed spaces but can fit some niche designs.
And Interior Shutters?
We don’t typically recommend interior shutters for enclosed spaces since they take up the most space of any of our window treatments. However, they are the perfect fit for living rooms, bedrooms, and dining rooms in more elegant and sophisticated styles. They come in several different material options and colors to help you match your home’s aesthetic more effectively.
