Homeowners are choosing to add more windows and doors, and larger windows and doors, to virtually every room of their homes.

While this allows more fresh air and natural light into homes, it can also feel like your life is on display for the neighborhood to see. Aside from traditional window treatments, there are other innovative options available to give you privacy without sacrificing style.

Blinds-Between-the-Glass

Offering you privacy and convenience at your fingertips! 

Blinds are located between the panes of insulated glass, so they’re protected from dust and damage. This construction makes the glass easy-to-clean without the need to move the blinds. You can raise, lower or tilt the blinds to easily control the amount of light and privacy you want.

Blinds-between-the-glass are available on select Andersen products. Learn more about the benefits and options.

Privacy Glass

Patterned & Decorative Glass

Specialty glass options obscure views into and out of your windows without sacrificing natural light. Technology allows the glass to take on a textured appearance which in turn makes the glass more opaque and less clear.

Since curtains and blinds aren’t ideal for rooms like the bathroom, you can benefit from the privacy of patterned or tinted glass options without sacrificing light. So you can soak away without a care!

Several types of patterned glass are available from Andersen to give you the privacy you need. Choose from these decorative options.

Tinted glass is another option that may offer privacy. Choose from gray, bronze and green colors on select products. Please contact your dealer or contractor for more information.

Available in a wide variety of patterns, art glass adds elegance and character to any home style.
