It sounds like this will be a security entrance needing door handles and locks as well?

That I have plans for. However, the other 3 doors in the sunroom are sliding glass doors. So the challenge is how to make oak sliding doors so am looking at the Shoji design so can the bottom tracks be made to handle the weight of the oak and glazed glass as well as facing the outdoors.

I need to cover 6 windows (set in pairs) which measure about 2′x 2.5′, to reduse sunlight damage.
And, possibly a door.

Do not want to go to distant cities. Live in Cloverdale, CA (Sonoma County, Northern End).

Thank you, JoAnn Ellinwood

No, most of our inserts block the wind. However, we do have sheerweaves if you would like a breeze to pass through the insert, and we also have acoustically transparent fabrics for shoji closing over speakers. Finally, grasscloth is another one of our favorite inserts to use when air flow through the insert is desired.

If you are talking about the insert staying taut no matter what the climate, yes we take care to install our inserts so they keep that just stretched look.
Hope this answers your question!

It’s best to send inquiries to: info@designshoji.com as that is checked daily. I’m not sure if you need the panel operable, but I am assuming at the very least you will want it removable for cleaning the window. Shoji look great inside mount, even if only part of the window is being covered.
