Are Vertical Blinds Still in Style?
Vertical blinds have been popular for decades for their combination of brilliant looks and fantastic functionality. They offer superb value for money, with effective design, and work well for both windows and doors. And with a custom design, you will make your home decor stand out even more.
Vertical blind fabrics come in blackout materials and waterproof options, making them one of the few blinds that look good in every room of the home, including more challenging ones like bathrooms and kitchens where direct contact with water and humidity occurs.
Light Control
One of the reasons vertical blinds are perfect for light control is the fact that they offer customizable light control, you can choose to move them out of the way completely to get a clear view or to slightly tilt the vanes to get the amount of light you need. When you do close them, you can get blackout blinds that give you total privacy.
Having the option to open or tilt your blinds completely allows light to easily travel through your home, brightening the entire room with just the twist of a wand or the pull of a cord.
Patio/Sliding Doors
Vertical blinds are still a popular treatment for French doors and sliding glass and a wonderful addition to any home. The fact that they move the same way as sliding glass doors and can cover large areas makes them an easy choice for sliding glass doors and patios.
If you’re looking for a covering on a window that is 10 plus feet in size, then vertical blinds are the best option for you as they can go up to 16 feet wide. With the various colors, styles, and modern fabrics that are offered, they fit well with more decor styles than ever before.
Enjoy Peace and Comfort
Vertical blinds’ fabrics are extremely good at absorbing ambient noise. If you live on a busy street, you will immediately notice the difference a new set of blinds can make. Vertical blinds can help keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, reducing your need for air conditioning and heating.
Even with the many benefits of vertical blinds, they are not as expensive as most people may think. At the same time, they don’t collect as much debris and dust as horizontal ones do. This makes them easier to clean and maintain. All you need to do is to choose the most appropriate ones for your rooms.
