Achieve that classic shutter look in sliding glass doors thanks to Blinds.com Track Faux Wood Shutters. These by-pass shutters hang from an easy-to-install vertical track, which allows them to slide past one another as they cover your windows. This gives you the option of having a shuttered view on one half of your window with a clear view on the other..
Thanks to their faux wood construction, these shutters are an excellent solution for damp or humid climates—which means they’re also an excellent choice for sliding glass doors. They’re also more energy efficient than standard vertical faux wood shutters, making them perfect for climates with extreme heat and cold.
Install Time: 30 - 45 minutes
We Recommend:
- The deep louvers offer a wide view to the outdoors and are a great choice for windows that hold a beautiful view.
- A split tilt rod allows you to open either the top or bottom half of your shutters independently of the other.
Considerations:
- In choosing between 3” and 4” louvers, consider your window’s sill depth to make sure there is ample clearance.
- The louvers on this product must remain closed when the product is stacked to one side of the window or door.

Usually you can jsut replace the lock and handle. Before you do this, make sure that the connection on the frame is in the good position, sometimes that gets a little loose and slides, which can cause the latch on the door itself to fail to hook in and/or unhook. No point in replacing hardware when it isn't the problem. Either way, it is a relatively easy job, even for an amateur like me (and apparentyl you too).
When my children were young, they were little escape artists. They actually snuck outside at 3 & 4 to play barefoot in the snow; I found out the next morning -footprint evidence. This excursion was before home alarm systems were standard. I found sliding door screw clips at the hardware store. If you cannot find the clips it would be simple to drill a small hole in the upper track of the sliding glass door and slip a small nail in the track.
