Blinds for Large Windows and Wide Doors

Wide windows and sliding glass doors open up your home to the outdoors, allowing for scenic views and generous amounts of daylight. They’re often a focal point, and their window treatments make a style statement in your home.

Vertical blinds are the classic choice, but there are many other options. With the popularity of open concept floor plans, finding a solution that coordinates your sliding glass door with your windows is more important than ever.

Explore our designer-approved solutions to find the one that best suits your space.

Horizontal Blinds & Shades

Many of our horizontal blinds and shades are available at extra-wide widths. Bali Cellular Shades, for example, can be made up to 144" wide. Large windows can also be covered by having several blinds or shades built onto one headrail. Even though it’s one cohesive treatment on your window, each blind or shade can be operated independently for flexible light and privacy.

Sliding Panels

Sliding panels offer a clean, modern take on vertical treatments with sleek, no-fuss panels. Made from the same fabrics as 4 of our most popular horizontal shades, Bali Sliding Panels make it easy to coordinate and design your open concept space.

Your sliding panels can be designed from 4 types of fabrics:

• Roller shade fabrics (available in blackout; variety of colors and patterns)
• Solar shade fabrics (protects from UV rays and allows view outdoors, even when closed)
• Classic Roman shade fabrics (available in blackout; neutral colors)
• Natural shade fabrics (earth-friendly design; natural colors)

Vertical Blinds

Our high-quality styles, versatile colors, and durable materials offer modern options for every space. Patented headrails mean your vanes stay straight and even.

• Wood.  Made from premium North American hardwood, our vertical wood blinds bring in a stunning natural element to your space.
• Fabric.  For a softer look. Fabrics range from sheer to room darkening, and come in a variety of weaves and materials.
• Vinyl.  Opt for a traditional look by choosing vinyl vanes that have a smooth surface and a standard crown shape, or upgrade to embossed vanes that mimic the texture of fabric, wood, or stucco in a subtle, drapery-like wave.
• Sheer-covered vinyl.  With flowing sheer material layered over room-darkening vinyl vanes, this style offers the best combination of comfort and light control.

Custom Drapery

Bali Drapery is a showstopping solution for both wide windows and sliding glass doors. Gorgeous fabrics and exquisite hand tailoring mean your custom drapery showcase exceptional quality in inspiring style.

Add drapery as a layer with other blinds or shades on your wide windows or as a standalone treatment for sliding glass doors. Add a liner for more privacy, insulation, or moisture resistance.

Natural drapes are another drapery option. Fabrics are made from renewable materials like jute and grasses for sustainable, nature-based design. Hand-woven natural drapes offer a connection to the outdoors in the soft, flowing design of drapes.

Natural Drapes

Bali Natural Drapes let you dress your wide windows and patio doors in environmentally sound style. Available in a wide range of natural shade materials, natural drapes combine chic, rustic design with the rolling qualities of drapery.

• Natural style. Bring the natural beauty of bamboo, jute, grasses, and woven wood to your wide windows and patio doors.
• Distinctive design. Thanks to natural differences in the weave of every drape, each window treatment becomes a unique work of art to show off.
• Wide window coordination. Natural drapes coordinate effortlessly with Bali Natural Shades, letting you bring the natural look to your entire home.
