Legance™ Patio Doors Inside-the-Glass Mini-Blinds utilize the Vari-Tilt™ design that enables homeowners to adjust the amount of light that they let into their home or the amount of privacy needed by effortlessly tilting the slats to any position they desire. Inside-the-Glass, Vari-Tilt™ Mini-Blinds provide a new level of convenience for homeowners, by eliminating time consuming dusting and cleaning.

New Mini-Blind Option for Legance Patio Doors
"In addition to convenience and instant privacy, homeowners will value the peace of mind knowing these Vari-Tilt™ Mini-Blinds are safe for children and pets since there is not an external corded operator," states David Rascoe, president of Thermal Industries, Inc.
