Afternoon sun
106 days a year reach 90°F. Louvers tilted up block high sun while still letting you see out, which a curtain or vertical blind can't do.
Sliding doors to the yard
In a city of mostly detached houses, the patio door is usually a wide sliding glass door. Bypass shutters slide on a track in front of it, so nothing swings into the room and the door opens with the panels stacked to one side.
Older door openings
51% of homes are decades old, and older door openings settle. Measure the width at the top, middle and bottom; a mounting frame gives the track a straight line to run on.
Patio and balcony doors in Odessa
63% of Odessa's homes are detached houses, most with a sliding patio door or French doors to the yard. Bifold panels clear the most glass where there is floor space to fold them.
8.8% of people here are under five, more than in any other of the 881 US cities we have figures for. Blinds on patio doors often run on a cord or chain; shutter panels have none. In Midland, 17 miles away, it's about the same: 8.9% of people are under five.
