5 Fantastic Reasons For Choosing Blinds for your Home
Blinds are becoming increasingly more popular every year and there are good reasons for that popularity.
- Many types of blinds
- Technological Improvements
- Sunlight
- Price
- Aesthetics
The range of types of blinds has grown in recent years. If your idea of a window blind is a white Venetian blind or a cheap-looking vertical blind, then please have a look at all the types of blinds available on our website. Venetian blinds are now available in hundreds of colours and the slats can be made from PVC, aluminium, wood, or faux wood. Roman blinds can be made from luxurious fabrics and there are new types of blinds such as Vision blinds and Perfect Fit blinds. At Forth Blinds, we can fully explain each type of blind and help you choose the right type for your home.
If you dislike the dangly cords on blinds, then you will be pleased to hear that you can now buy cordless blinds. Cordless blinds look more expensive and are more aesthetically pleasing. You can also buy motorised blinds that you can control by remote control or even by voice using Amazon Echo or Google Home.
Blinds have a huge advantage over curtains when it comes to controlling sunlight and sun glare in your home. Roller blinds and Roman blinds can be pulled down just enough to prevent harsh sun glare in your room but to still let the light in. With Venetian and vertical blinds you can tilt the slats to an angle that only allows gentle daylight in. Vision blinds, otherwise known as 'day and night' blinds provide privacy during the day but allow daylight in.
As with curtains, the price range is huge depending on the fabrics chosen, the size of your windows, and whether you need made-to-measure blinds. The great news is that a set of top-of-the-range made-to-measure blinds will be cheaper than made-to-measure curtains.
The wide range of blinds available means you will be able to choose a blind that suits your style and décor. If you like a modern, minimal interior, then blinds are perfect for you. They are neat and tidy and can sit flush inside your window frame.
