Panel Track Blinds
Panel track blinds are a type of window covering especially suitable for large windows
and doors. A panel of material is attached to a sliding track system,
usually wheeled for smooth operation. The track is mounted above the window or door
frame. The panel can be opened or closed with a simple
wand to slide it along the track.
Panel track blinds are relatively new to the window covering
arena and compete with Venetian and vertical blinds. Advantages of using a panel track blind include less dust collected,
ease of replacement, minimal movement and versatility in interior design. The
safety of children and pets often comes into play with window treatments. Panel track blinds keep
safety concerns at bay because they are usually operated by a stick wand, not
dangling cords.
Panel track blinds stay mostly static with the track providing
stable placement, reducing blind breakage and replacement costs. Some models
offer weighted panel bottoms to hold the paneltaut using gravity. The panels offer a
clean, sleek look and are manufactured in a wide array of materials and
patterns. The blinds are typically available in fabrics,
sheer weaves, vinyl, and woven or solid wood. Vinyl blinds are most popular in kitchen and baths,
where moisture is an issue. Parents of young children may appreciate the ease
of cleaning vinyl panels, which can be wiped down with a damp cloth or sponge.
Sometimes,
panels are attached with Velcro® onto the track, making
removal and reattachment easy. Homeowners or commercial building staff can
easily replace a torn panel. This also
allows for no-fuss seasonal changes in interior decoration. Installing panel track blinds takes
minimal skills. Additionally, the tracks do not take up much space above the
window or door.
Panel track blinds are also suitable and inexpensive as room
dividers. Their modern look, simplicity and low-cost is attractive when heavy,
bulky room dividers are unwanted or it is not feasible to build a wall. Sizes
can be customized depending on room size. As with panels covering windows and
doors, homeowners can choose from solid or opaque styles depending on the
desired amount of privacy or light.
