Hi everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations for a company that sells heavy-duty curtains to use as a door for our house. The main purpose is to protect our home from UV damage and to offer some protection from rain. We also experience high winds in our area from time to time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

🤔

I'd suggest a sturdy door would be more practical than a curtain.

Could OP perhaps elaborate on how she plans to use a curtain as a door?

Do you mean to use on the outside?
If it’s used on the inside it won’t protect your door from the UVA

Where are you?

I have the same dilemna before. You may want to check out AKON UK. I’ve used their products and they worked really well. Their heavy-duty curtains are great for UV protection, rain, and windy areas, plus they offer custom sizes for door openings.
