Choosing the Right Blinds
Although curtains can look good, once the drafts have been
excluded from the window areas why not choose a window covering
which can show off plenty of the tidy new window frames.
Vertical blinds
provide the ideal package of benefits to accompany and compliment
the brand new windows. Vertical
blinds can be purchased in standard sizes, or made to
measure vertical blinds can be made to fit almost any size
of window. This means that they are also suitable for use
in a window where there is a larger drop such as in the
conservatory or over patio doors. Installation requires
simple brackets and should therefore make only a minimal
impression on or above new window frames.
For made to measure
vertical blinds customers can choose which side of the
window the blinds can be arranged of when not drawn and
which side the control mechanism is on. Once again this
can help to make the most of the best features of new windows
and doors.
High quality vertical
blind makers should be able to offer a huge degree of
choice in terms of the slat fabric, a choice or head rail
colour (usually white or brown), and several choices of
draw options. Vertical
slats are also often made from washable fabrics which
means that they can easily be kept as clean as the new windows
themselves.
Vertical blind
slats can be angled to allow just the right amount of
light into the room while maintaining privacy. The angled
slats also provide enough space for those looking out of
the room to admire the new window frames and to get a clear
view of what’s happening outside the house without
it being easy to see in.
