A panel blind is ok for my bi-fold door. The bi-fold window is in the kitchen. I'm building a Bordeoux by Carlisle Homes. Any ideas, please???
cheers, Hannah Re: Window Dressing for Bi-fold windows! 3Jul 28, 2008 9:20 am Thanks, Paula. It the same structure as bi-fold door. It will be installed in the kitchen opening up to the alfresco. Now I'm thinking of shutters, but, its dearly priced!!!
cheers, Hannah Re: Window Dressing for Bi-fold windows! 4Sep 02, 2008 9:49 am I'm just putting a Roman blind on mine - and double roller blinds on my bi-fold doors. I wasn't sure what to do there either, but I figure it will be either all the way up, or all the way down so I think it should be ok!

After I've been in a while I'll decide what to do.
I think window coverings are so bloody hard! Hardest thing I've thought about so far to be honest. Jo I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

Otherwise holland blinds look nice. Damo Visit my blog: http://damosbitofblog.blogspot.com/ Re: Window Dressing for Bi-fold windows! 8Sep 05, 2008 4:20 pm Have you thought about a window tint.
You can get varying degrees of privacy, including a see out but not in variety. We had our bifolds done and a few other highlight windows for less than $1000. You also get the added bonus of a reduction in UV rays (saving your floors and furniture from fading) Re: Window Dressing for Bi-fold windows! 9Sep 05, 2008 5:10 pm https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.p ... highlight=
I just posted a couple of pics on the thread above. We used sheerfold blinds.They are like a sheer curtain that has been folded over vertical slats. They slide open like a vertical...you can fold them shut for blockout or you can have them closed with an open slat so you let light in but its still private... Not everyones cup of tea.....but worked really great on our stackers...... In the pic you can see them completely open or closed with open slats on the righthand window...

My kitchen is west facing and I am worried as my timber floor wil be too exposed to the afternoon sun. cheers, Hannah Re: Window Dressing for Bi-fold windows! 11Sep 08, 2008 10:57 pm Quote: I just posted a couple of pics on the thread above.

We just got a quote and it's expensive, just like the Plantation shutters... For our bi-folds and sliding door, we were given a quote of almost $6K! That depends on the fabric too...
