Panel Track

We installed another satisfied customer today and I marveled at how ideal the application turned out to be. The sliding panel, or panel track, create an elegant stack when opened. This application was ideal for the client’s sliding glass doors  as the panels slide and stack to the left,  as do the doors themselves.

Two details to note:

1. The view is completely intact, as you can see the Panama City skyline in the horizon.

2. The room is darkened and glare is removed enough for viewing of television, as exemplified in this cozy living room in El Dorado. If you were to be in this room and you wanted a tad more light, say to read, you’d simply budge the blinds open a bit.

I feel this room is the ideal application- you are protected from bright light and glare, but you’re still connected to the city and its environs by having the view. A fabric curtain would simply shut you out from the world. For those curious- the fabric chosen for this Panel and Roller application was a 550 White Linen, one of our more efficient weaves.

Blackout - Matte - Off White

Another very telling application is this blackout. This 110 inch roller is one of our specialties: as we pride ourselves in making large curtains that are easy to handle due to the quality of our mechanisms.

I love this picture because it exemplifies exactly how effectively blackout allows for darkness in the room. Add to that being easy to clean, easy to maintain, and its attractive price and its a no-brainer solution .

The client plans to later put some nice fabric side panels to match the colors & details in the room, which is what is usually recommended with blackout applications in bedrooms.
