Cafe Curtain Rods For Patio Doors

Finding a way to install window treatments on patio doors is often challenging. You can't use a curtain rod the traditional way since the doors have to open. And free-flowing curtains will get stuck in the door every time you open and close it. Cafe curtain rods are a great solution.

Cafe curtain rods are small rods with returns on them. You can purchase them with different projections and in different sizes. They can install directly to the patio door. One rod on the top and one rod on the bottom can hold your curtains exactly where you want them. To cover the window, you will need to hang the rods just above and below the glass. Figure out where you want to hang the rods on the door and measure the width of the window(s) and how much room you have to the right and left. Make sure the mounting brackets for the rod will fit on your door.

A popular curtain for patio doors is sheers. They let the light in but still give you some privacy. If you need light blocking or want something more decorative, there are many styles of curtains sold for standard patio door sizes. Some cafe curtain rods even allow for rings to go on them, so you have more choices for curtains. The last step is to slide the curtains on and install the rod. If you are unsure of how to install the rods, ask your home improvement store about your type of door and what type of screws or fasteners you should use. Once installed, you will have an attractive window covering and curtain rods for your patio doors.
