What they are
Vertical blinds for Livonia door walls
Vertical blinds hang individual vanes from a headrail. Rotate the vanes to adjust light and privacy, and draw the blind to one side or split it in the middle when you want to open the door. Because the vanes hang straight down, they handle wide openings that many horizontal blinds can’t.
The door wall is a fixture in Livonia homes, from 1950s ranches with a slider off the kitchen to colonials with a door wall to the deck. Many of those doors still have their first set of verticals, and today’s custom vertical blinds are a big step up: new vinyl, fabric and textured vanes in many colors, with matching valances that hide the headrail.
Verticals are also a good fit in finished basements and sunrooms, where durability matters more than a decorated look. If you’d like something softer, we’ll show you sheer vertical shades side by side so you can compare them at the same door.

Easy care

Operating options & care
Simple operation and easy maintenance
Vertical blinds are usually operated with a wand that draws and rotates the vanes, or with a cord and chain. Wand control keeps cords away from a busy door and from children and pets. We’ll help you choose the stack direction that works with how you use the door.
To clean vertical blinds, dust the vanes with a duster or vacuum brush. Vinyl vanes can be wiped with a damp cloth and mild soap; fabric vanes should be dusted and spot cleaned. If a vane ever breaks, individual vanes can usually be replaced rather than the whole blind.

Vertical blind questions
Common questions from Livonia homeowners about vertical blinds.
Is it worth replacing the original vertical blinds on my Livonia door wall?
If the vanes are yellowed, cracked or missing, a new custom vertical blind makes a big difference in how the room looks and how easily the door opens. We’ll measure and show you current vane materials.
Can vertical blinds cover a sunroom or addition in Livonia?
Yes. Verticals handle wide runs of windows well. We measure each opening and recommend how to split and stack the blinds.
What are vertical blind vanes made of?
Vanes are commonly made of vinyl, fabric or textured materials. Vinyl is the easiest to clean; fabric gives a softer look.
Can one broken vane be replaced?
In most cases a single vane can be replaced without replacing the whole blind. Call us if a vane breaks.
Which way should my vertical blinds stack?
Usually toward the side of the door that doesn’t open, so the blind isn’t in the way. We’ll look at your door and recommend the best setup.
