There’s a reason why developers and architects are opting for floor to ceiling windows more and more often when they’re designing commercial and residential projects. Large expansive windows, aided by floor to ceiling window treatments, allow an abundance of natural light to come in while creating a pleasantly open atmosphere. However, as a provider of window treatments Miami residents trust, we are also familiar with the challenges intrinsic to this beautiful window design. Excessive heat – especially in South Florida – glare from the sun, and concerns about privacy are all issues that may pop up.
Fortunately, all these issues can be taken care of with the right window treatments. Here are two of the most popular window treatments for floor to ceiling windows, some suggestions on how to fit them with your windows, and why they are the right choice for you.
Here are some reasons why Miami homeowners love this classic trend, and why it will never go out of style.
Draperies are a classic window treatment ideal for homes that are going for a unique aesthetic due to the fabric versatility, light control, and functionality. Draperies also frame your windows in a soft way, making floor to ceiling windows appear less glaring. Motorized draperies are an updated version of normal drapes; you’ll never have to tug on your drapery fabric (ugh!) and snag your nails in the process just to try and close and open them. Without the wear and tear of constant tugging, your fabric will stay looking like new for longer.
Motorized draperies are installed on discrete drapery tracks so you don’t have to see the hardware, offering a sleek, clean look without the traditional drapery rods. Moreover, you can easily operate your drapery with the touch of a button – or even the sound of your voice – with wall switches, hand-held remote, or bluetooth smart devices.
Our firm can custom create roller shades – along with any other custom floor to ceiling window treatments – to fit any window. We’ll match motorized shades to the exact dimensions of your windows. You won’t have to worry about trying to tug these closed either, no matter how high your windows are. Just like with any other type of motorized window treatment, you can easily operate your shades via wall switch, remote, or smart device. This allows you to easily adjust how much light (and how much privacy) you want without getting up.
If you love sleeping in, consider blackout shades so you can rest undisturbed until you are ready to get up. For those concerned about excessive glare, screen or solar shades can help you maintain your panorama view while protecting you from the sun’s harsh rays.
