How to measure for patio door curtains

To measure for patio door curtains, start by measuring the width of the door opening at the top, middle, and bottom, noting down the widest measurement as the curtain rod width. Multiply the rod width by 1.5 to 2 to determine the curtain width for a full and gathered look. Measure the height from the top of the frame to the floor or desired length, adding any extra length for puddling or desired fabric at the bottom. If the curtain rod will be installed above the frame, include that measurement in the curtain length. Double-check all measurements before purchasing curtains to ensure accuracy and a proper fit for your patio doors.

How to dress patio doors with curtains

To dress patio doors with curtains, start by measuring the space and selecting curtains made from durable, weather-resistant materials. Choose a sturdy curtain rod that matches the door width and install it securely above the doors. Slide the curtain panels onto the rod, ensuring they overlap slightly for privacy and light control. Consider using tiebacks or clips to hold the curtains when open. Make any necessary adjustments for an even and polished look. Experiment with colours, patterns, and textures that complement your outdoor decor to showcase your personal style.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of curtains do you put on a patio door?

Patio doors often benefit from sliding or French door curtains. Vertical blinds, sheer curtains, or drapes with a traverse rod are popular choices. Consider the functionality and aesthetic preferences, ensuring the curtains are easy to open and close while providing privacy and light control.

What can I use instead of curtains for patio doors?

Instead of curtains, consider alternatives like sliding panels, vertical blinds, or bamboo shades for patio doors. These options offer practical light control and privacy solutions while adding a contemporary or natural aesthetic to the space.

How do you hang patio door curtains?

Hanging patio door curtains involves selecting an appropriate curtain rod or track, ensuring it extends beyond the width of the door to allow the curtains to stack appropriately when open. For sliding doors, opt for curtain panels with grommets or back tabs for easy sliding. French doors may require tiebacks to keep the curtains clear of the door's path.

What type of blinds are best for patio doors?

Vertical blinds are a popular choice for patio doors, as they provide easy access and effective light control and can be adjusted to suit privacy needs. Other suitable options include panel track blinds, which offer a modern and sleek appearance. Consider materials that complement your decor, such as fabric, vinyl, or wood, for a cohesive look in your patio space.
