Why choose vertical blinds?

Vertical blinds are an old favourite, and they’re making a comeback! Easy to use and ever stylish, vertical blinds are an excellent option for your windows and doors. So why choose them?

Well, first things first, they effectively regulate light. Two controls mean slats can be tilted 180 degrees, or the blinds can be pulled back completely. This means that depending on the time of day or season, your vertical blinds can be adjusted specifically to your needs. What’s more, your privacy is never compromised; even when sunlight spills into the room, vertical blinds obstruct views from the outside.

Vertical blinds are also very easy to maintain. They collect much less dust than other types of window shades, and when they need a bit of a clean, a feather duster or a damp cloth will do the trick. This type of blind is also extremely durable, and should any louvers ever need replacing, you can easily swap slats without having to invest in a brand new blind.

A little known fact is that vertical blinds help to maintain room temperature, preventing heat from escaping through the windows in colder months, while blocking sunlight and keeping the room cool when it’s sunny. Plus, should you ever open the doors and windows to allow air to circulate through your home, vertical blinds will keep pesky flies and insects at bay!

Vertical blinds are a modern alternative to curtains, combining a classic style with a contemporary twist.  Sleek, smart and ever stylish, they are fantastic mix of design and functionality.
