Treating Sliding Doors with Blinds

Sliding doors present a unique decorating situation. Because they are doors and yet they allow a huge amount of light in like windows, sliding doors can create that comfortable sunny spot in the house which requires a manageable kind of covering that must allow them to open and close freely.

Blinds can enhance the appearance of sliding panels and provide optimum privacy and light control. Make sure to mount the blinds at the ceiling line, make sure they are also versatile enough you can totally draw them to the side, keeping the walkway clear. To control glare and sunlight throughout the day, try a layered treatment of opaque roller blinds or flimsy draperies over mini blinds.

Blinds are Best for Daysleepers

I come home at crazy hours because of my work, going through different late night shifts throughout the week and by the time dawn breaks, I'm just about in bed ready to snooze. But sleep can be difficult for a day sleeper like me, since my body clock follows a different time zone and I am very sensitive to light, my sleep can easily get interrupted.

Curtains were doing me a disservice, often cloth can't really cut the light out. In order to sleep properly, I need to fool my body into thinking its actually night time. Its not easy to fool that internal body clock that signals your brain to go get some shuteye, once light gets through, I'm in for a rough ride.



Gladly though, after a few sleepless nights, I finally made a choice to get some blinds installed in my room. I got the light control I wanted. I got my blinds motorized and can easily shift my room into pitch darkness. Instant night. Just what my body needs. Blinds are really best for people who need full sleep during day time. I highly recommend blinds for people who work night shifts at hospitals, call centers, factories, airports. I have never slept this comfortably and I'm glad I got my blinds fitted over the weekend.
