How to Cover Your-Floor-to-Ceiling Windows in 2025

Did you know that most of a home’s energy loss is due to poorly insulated windows? The bigger the window, the greater the chance for energy loss. This can leave your home sweltering in the summer and freezing in the winter. That’s why, when considering window treatments for your floor-to-ceiling windows, we recommend considering energy-efficient fabrics. Cellular shades, for example, are specifically designed to trap air at the window. This reduces the amount of air that passes through your windows.

Cellular shades from Alta® Window Fashions are an excellent option for keeping your home cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and stylish all year round. With a wide variety of custom colors and cuts, these shades help keep your large windows insulated and can even help you save on energy bills down the road.

When it comes to floor-to-ceiling window treatments, scale matters. You want to make sure that the colors you choose complement the drama of these windows without cluttering your space. We recommend light neutrals, soft textures, and luxuriously woven fabrics for your modern home. These colors add sophistication, transform harsh sunlight into a gorgeous glow, and enhance any room in your home without cluttering your look.

Sheer shades from Hunter Douglas are particularly excellent for this, as they offer various beautiful neutral colors. Their build also offers a sense of airiness thanks to their lightweight but durable fabric—a great feature that softens these large windows. Plus, the delicate vanes of most shades allow you to enjoy privacy and gently filtered light at the same time. Our team is happy to show you styles from both Hunter Douglas and Alta® if this style sounds like a fit for your home.

Adjusting your floor-to-ceiling windows can pose quite a challenge. For many, this can include using a nearby chair or the arm of your sofa, which can potentially result in an accident. Luckily, a variety of our window treatments for large windows are compatible with motorization systems from Alta® Window Fashions, Hunter Douglas, and Norman®.

These systems allow you to open, close, and adjust your window treatments with the press of a button, a tap on your smart device, or even with your voice. Depending on the treatment style you like best, we can help match them to the appropriate motorization system. Another perk? Since these systems are inherently cordless, they are excellent for homes with small children, pets, or those who are unable to manually operate their window treatments.

Floor-to-ceiling windows should be considered a gorgeous architectural feature, not a challenge to cover. Our team at Elden Draperies, Blinds, and Shades is happy to introduce you to our various styles that perfectly fit these large window treatments. Whether you’re seeking energy efficiency, ease of use, or elegant colors, we have something for every type of household. Of course, if you are looking to cover other windows in your home, our team is happy to introduce you to our entire collection of styles.
