Key Considerations When Buying Garage Window Coverings

• Privacy Control at Night: If you choose view-blocking sun screens for your garage, they will provide privacy during the day. But their role will be reversed during the night, i.e., they will become see-through at night when the lights in your garage are on. So, choose fabrics with a tighter weave and higher opacity for day and night privacy.
• Double Privacy: For double privacy in your car room, choose dual or double cellular shades .
• Daylight Requirements: Depending on the amount of natural light you need to filter into your garage, choose an appropriate opacity level. Some popular options with an increasing order of openness include 1%, 3%, 5%, 10%, and 14%. You can make further light/privacy adjustments by raising or lowering the blinds or tilting their slats.
• Child Safety: No cords, no risk of strangulation to your child! If you have kids or pets at home, choose garage window treatments with a cordless control system. A cord-free or motorized shade is kid-safe and pet-friendly as it lacks dangling cords and fully conforms with CPSC’s New Federal Safety Standards.
• Humidity & Ventilation: If your garage is not well-ventilated and has a high moisture level, don’t choose wood blinds, as they are prone to water damage. Instead, go with moisture-resistant faux wood blinds.
• Affordability: Cost-effectiveness is one of the foremost factors to consider when choosing window covers for your conventional or modern garage.
• Lower Maintenance Costs: To minimize maintenance costs of your garage coverings, choose vertical or horizontal privacy blinds with 1” or 2” slats.
• Decor: Match a color with your garage’s unique decor style.
• Valance: Choose a matching valance to decorate and protect your window treatments from the elements.
• Care: Don’t scrub the shades when cleaning.
• Using Light Blockers: Use light blockers to improve insulation and cover light gaps.
