Bifold Bypass Shutters For Fort Lauderdale Sliding Glass Doors
Interior shutters are the best treatment for sliding doors in Fort Lauderdale. Shutters protect your privacy, block light, won’t sway like blinds or panel tracks, and can even last longer than the sliding door itself. If you’ve already decided on shutters for a sliding door, the only other decision to make is what kind of shutters would best fit your sliding glass doors.
Bypass Shutters For Sliding In Fort Lauderdale
The more prevalent of the two sliding glass door shutter options is the bypass configuration. In this setup, two or more shutter panels slide on a track mounted above the door. The shutters are offset so the panels slide over each other for access to the door. Or if the sliding door has room to the side, the track can reach past the doorframe to allow the shutter panel to completely slide out from in front of the glass door.
Bi-fold Shutters For Sliding Doors In Fort Lauderdale
As the name implies, bifold shutters for sliding glass doors are ones that fold. Rather than two big, solid shutter panels that slide side to side on a track, bifold shutters are built with smaller panels that fold into each other, clearing the path in front of your sliding glass door.
