Can double-glazing avoid curtains/blinds on bifolds?
Page 1 of 1
This should look fantastic with a dark stain on the wood. My question is about blinds / curtains. We obviously want to avoid ugly curtain tracks / blinds on the corner bilfolds and wondering if anyone has done double-glazing and if that is enough to keep the temperature at bay.
Price quoted for the double glazing is just north of $5K.
You may also want to consider what to do about insect screens if there are any airborne insects in your area that you want to keep out while maintaining ventilation.
In terms of insulation, bare double glazing is fairly similar to single glazing with decent curtains. However if you have direct sun on it, the double glazing won't stop that much at all, unless there are films/coatings to reduce radiant heat.

Thanks for that.. wont get direct sun as the roof extends over a fairly sizable alfresco.
Have considered fly screens.. from what we can tell.. flies shouldn't be too bad.
They may hit you with an extra cost to move up a size.

I don't like to destroy reputations, but I have encountered some pretty bad flies...
