Blinds, Shades & Shutters in Bartlett, IL
Bartlett sprawls across three counties, and its newer subdivisions are full of the one opening that defeats off-the-shelf window treatments: the door with a handle in the way.
Local knowledge
Blinds, Shades & Shutters in Bartlett
The shutter above shows how that gets solved properly. Rather than hanging something that bangs into the lever every time the door opens, the panel is built with a cut-out shaped around the hardware. It is a custom fabrication detail, it is measured on site, and it is the difference between a window treatment that works and one that annoys you daily.
Bartlett's housing boom through the 1990s and 2000s left the village with a lot of two-story homes that share a floor plan: a front door with sidelights, a back slider onto the patio, and a two-story family room. We have specified that exact set of openings many times here, and we know which products hold up on each one.

Bartlett questions
Asked and answered
Can you cut around a door handle or a window crank?
Yes — both. Shutters can be fabricated with a cut-out shaped to the hardware, and faux wood blinds can be built with cut-outs for cranks and handles. We measure the hardware along with the opening.
What is the best treatment for a sliding patio door?
It depends on how you use the door. Vertiglide™ cellular slides side to side and is fully cordless. Skyline® panel tracks glide sideways and stack clear of the glass. Shutters work when you want a built-in look. We will show you all three on site.
