I want to confirm these blinds slide to the side to get to the sliding door and get outside? And how do I order if I want them to slide from left to right?
Asked by CHERYL ·
Hello Cheryl, thank you for your question! The PVC Vertical Blinds will open to either side and they also come with a reversible headrail allowing them to be installed in either direction so that the wand can be placed on the left or right-hand side. Let us know if you have any further questions!

Do vertical blinds for patio windows, are the PVC light emitting or blackout?
Asked by Jeff M ·
Great question, Jeff! These Vertical Blinds are light filtering or somewhat room darkening, but not blackout. Even when fully closed, some light may come through the sides, bottom, or between the slats. If you'd like to explore other options for your patio window, we’d love to help. Let us know if you'd like a product consultation!

Do the blinds fade and/or do they start to curl or warp in direct sunlight over time?
Asked by David W ·
Hello David, thank you for your question! These are good quality PVC vanes and should last you for many years. That being said, PVC will eventually fade over time. Make sure that there is nothing (such as heavy drapes) hanging in front of the vertical blinds. When heat gets trapped between a sunny glass window and drapery, it can cause that PVC to warp.
