Hunter Douglas TrackGlide™: Covering Narrow & Tilt-Turn Windows
The Hunter Douglas TrackGlide™ System is an ideal solution for windows and doors featuring narrow frames or with tilt and turn functionality. Exclusively designed for Duette® Honeycomb Shades, TrackGlide adheres to the glass securely. This allows the shades to move with the window. There is no drilling into the window frame. Ideal for European-style tilt-turn windows, patio doors, and glass openings where traditional mounting isn’t an option.
A No-Drill Solution for Tilt-Turn Windows & Narrow Frames
From narrow window frames, to the unique operating style of tilt-turn windows, the no drill solution of TrackGlide is making it easy to get the light control and privacy of window coverings where you never thought possible.
How the TrackGlide System Works
The narrow track adheres to the very edge of the glass on windows and doors alike. The honeycomb shades secure into the track, and then glide up and down the track with seamless adjustemnts.

Which window coverings are available with TrackGlide?
The TrackGlide system is available exclusively with Hunter Douglas Duette® Honeycomb Shades.
Can the TrackGlide™ system work on tilt-turn windows?
Yes. TrackGlide™ is an ideal solution for tilt-turn windows. Since the track adheres to the glass of the window–and moves with the window–you can feature window shades on tilt-turn windows unlike any other shades.
Does TrackGlide stay in place over time?
Yes. Hunter Douglas TrackGlide has been designed with a durable, long-lasting adhesive that supports the shade’s weight and maintains performance over time.
Can the TrackGlide system be used on doors or patio doors?

Does TrackGlide™ affect the ability to open or close the window?
Not at all. Since the system adheres directly to the glass, the entire shade moves with the window—even when tilted inward. This makes it ideal for European-style or modern tilt-turn designs.
Is the TrackGlide system available with motorization?
Yes, TrackGlide is an available option for window covering motorization. However, based on the size of the window, automation could be limited. Your Hunter Douglas dealer can confirm compatibility.
