Vertical Blinds in Sonoma, Napa & Marin
Smart solutions for sliding glass doors, wide windows, and large openings in homes, wineries, offices, and commercial spaces across the Bay Area.

Best for:
Sliding glass and patio doors
Extra-wide windows and wall-to-wall openings
Homes needing low-maintenance or walk-through access
Wineries, offices, and commercial interiors with large glass doors
Vertical Blind Styles:
Classic and easy to clean, these vertical blinds are built for everyday durability.
Crown vanes – Clean, structured look with smooth or embossed edges
S-curve vanes – Mimic soft drapery folds for added texture
Opacity options – From light-filtering to full room darkening
Available in: Graber® and Norman® Synchrony™ collections
Vertical blinds can also be paired with motorized controls or layered with drapery panels when a softer architectural look is desired.

Interior designers often specify these alternatives when they want the functionality of vertical blinds with a more refined fabric aesthetic.
