Sidelight Blinds, Shutters, and Shades

Sidelights are windows that flank a home’s front door. They elevate the appearance of your home’s entryway and fill it with natural light. However, as with windows of all sizes, there are times when you will want to cover sidelights. Let our experienced team at Blindscapes help you choose the perfect sidelights for your entryway.

Why You Need Hunter Douglas Sidelight Window Treatments

It would be best to cover sidelights for the same reasons you cover the other windows in your home. Sidelight window treatments give you privacy and light control. Covering sidelights helps to protect the flooring and furniture in your entryway from sun damage. Last but certainly not least, side window coverings help tie the space together and enhance your home’s curb appeal.

Choosing Sidelight Blinds

First impressions matter, so you want your home’s entryway to be a hit with any visiting guests. You can choose sidelight window treatments that blend in with your front door and décor to create a seamless, sophisticated aesthetic. Sidelight blinds are also a great way to bring color and texture to an entryway with a neutral color palette.

Sidelight Window Covering Options

There are various sidelight window treatments to fit the architecture and interior design of every home. Let’s explore your options:

  • Silhouette® Sheer Shades: Sheer shades have a delicate, flowy aesthetic and diffuse sunlight into a comforting glow. S-shaped fabric vanes between front and rear sheer panels offer exceptional privacy and UV protection without blocking natural light.
  • Luminette® Sheer Panels: If you have large sidelights, Luminette® Sheer Panels are a vertical option that offers the same benefits as Silhouette® Sheer Shades. The individual sheer panels house an integrated vane that provides additional light control. Rotate the vanes for precise light control and privacy.
  • Duette® Cellular Shades: Cellular shades offer unrivaled insulation, and their pleated surface brings texture and visual interest to sidelights. Slim ⅜” wide cells are ideal for covering narrow sidelights. Duette® Cellular Shades are also suitable for standard windows, doors, and skylights, so creating a cohesive design is nearly effortless.
  • Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds: Metal blinds are sleek and durable. They’re lightweight and resist fingerprints and dents for a lasting polished appearance. Choose from over 70 colors and finishes, including matte and metallic styles. Three vane widths allow you to customize your view of the outdoors.
  • Shutters: Shutters bring a clean, classic look to sidelights. Their adjustable louvers give you versatile control of light and privacy. You can choose from three materials to suit your preferences and needs.
  • Heritance® Wood Shutters
  • Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters
  • NewStyle® Composite Shutters
