Gliding Shade & Privacy
We have this great screened porch that I built about 10 years ago. One of the issues thats driven me loopy, is Privacy on the back wall, for privacy and for shade from the hot evening sun that pour in during the afternoon, I installed these 4 years ago and still just as thrilled with the results and the convenience. Found a stack of 15 of these great old shutters @ the local Habitat Restore Store for $30 (such a steal And have found multiple uses for the others) Always thing beyond the box. :)
Shutters on Pocket door hardware.
This after we had attached the rails and the wheels to the shutters. We simply just slide them one by one down the glide. the slide track is about 12 ft and when pushed asside the shutter slide nicely adjoined at the center of the garage.
