Bypass Bifold Shutters For New Brunswick Sliding Glass Doors
Sliding glass doors in New Brunswick are the perfect partner for interior shutters. Shutters protect your privacy, block light, won’t sway like blinds or panel tracks, and will probably last longer than the sliding door itself. If you’ve already decided on shutters for a sliding door, the next thing to decide is what shutter configuration would look best with the sliding glass doors in your space.
Bypass Shutters For Glass Doors In New Brunswick
The more prevalent of the two sliding glass door shutter builds is bypass shutters. In this setup, multiple shutter panels slide on a track mounted above your sliding door. The shutters are offset so the panels slide over each other for easy operation of the door. Or if you have room to the side of your sliding door, the track can reach past the door to let the shutter completely slide out from in front of the glass door.
Bi-fold Shutters For Sliding Doors In New Brunswick
As the name might tell you, bifold shutters for sliding glass doors are ones that fold. Instead of two big, solid shutter panels that slide back and forth on a rail, bifold shutters are separated into smaller panels that fold into each other, clearing the way in front of your sliding door.
