Which type of blind is right for you?

There are many different types of blinds on the market. Sometimes it can be a little overwhelming knowing what the right type of blind is for your window. There are many factors that come into play, some of which are listed below. 

  • Purpose - interior décor or boost functionality
  • Position of window - level of Sun exposure
  • Shape and Size - are there any obstructions
  • Type of window frame
  • Privacy - is it exposed
  • Style - does it match your interior décor

BLIND TYPES

Types of blinds to consider, and choosing the right one for you.

Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds are made from fabric and vinyl and are available in a wide variety of patterns, styles, and colours. They can also be made in 3 different sizes, such as 89mm, 100mm, or 127mm. They are a perfect solution to cover a variety of wide windows such as a Sliding Door.

Vertical blinds provide superior solar heat control and ultraviolet protection. Depending on the material you choose, they also offer different levels of privacy, light control, and moderate sound absorption.

Vertical blinds of the past had chain opening and closing cords and were linked along the bottom with typically a plastic chain. You may even still have some of these in your home. However, we now provide a more modern chainless weight in the bottoms of our blades - negating the need for bottom chain links. We also, in line with current child safety requirements, supply wand driven Vertical blinds. So, no more chains hanging at the side of your vertical blinds.

Vertical blinds are perhaps the most affordable choice for full-size windows and doors. Whether it’s a sliding door or a French door; their simple design makes them excellent candidates.

Vertical blinds are also very easily cleaned using our UNiQ ultrasonic blind cleaning service.

 

 

 

 

Roller Blinds

Roller blinds are a type of fabric blind and are one of the most versatile choices for blinds. They can come in a variety of different fabrics, light filtration, colours, and patterns. With one of the most common and versatile fabrics being PVC. It is naturally flame retardant, waterproof, easy-to-wipe, and sturdy – making it great in any room.

Roller blinds are fitted in either an over roll or an under roll placement. (See our post here for more info relating to over and under roll).

Although Roller blinds are great for a variety of windows, they are limited as to how big they can be. When they get too big, or long and narrow the roller blinds are prone to cupping, therefore, over larger windows or sliding doors, we would suggest splitting into smaller roller blinds that can be linked together at the top, and also concealed under one pelmet if you wish.

As mentioned above, Roller blinds can be easily wiped for small marks. We recommend having them professionally cleaned periodically. As with Vertical Blinds, our UNiQ ultrasonic cleaning service will have them looking fantastic all year round.

 

 

Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds are made from aluminium, timber, or PVC and combine versatility and light control that only venetians can provide. They are a cheaper alternative to Shutters, while giving a similar look.

If looking for traditional timber venetians, they are available in a variety of timbers in a selection of lacquered, oiled or polymer finishes. Our Venetians are finished with traditional pelmets
and, like all our products, we use only the very best components.

All 50mm Venetians have 2 sets of cords, one to lift and lower the blinds, and the other to tilt the slats offering fantastic slat control over light entering your room. Alternatively all 25mm Venetians will have one lifting cord and one wand for tilting for light control. With this in mind, it makes venetian blinds great on windows whether they are ones that have very little light, or those with lots of light, or even ones that change throughout the day. You will have complete control over how much or little you let in.

Something to keep in mind, while these blinds block a lot of light, they are not blockout blinds. Even when the blinds are fully closed, they’ll let low levels of light through. If you’re the type to need a completely dark room for sleep – consider other options.

While Timber blinds are a lovely addition to a bedroom or living room, if you are looking to upgrade your blinds in wet environments such as the kitchen or bathroom, our Eco Venetians, are a great option. They are incredibly strong and manufactured to be able to withstand high levels of UV light from the sun without warping, cracking or fading.

One thing that is for sure, the quality of off the shelf pre-packaged venetian blinds is sub-par compared to our high-quality Australian Made Venetians.

Shutters

Bring your interior décor look to life! Not only do our Shutters look absolutely fantastic, but the quality of the blinds is superior.

Our beautiful shutters are engineered from innovative, hard-wearing PVC incorporating an aluminium core insert in both the solid elliptical blade and panel stile. Our shutters deliver superior strength and greater rigidity eliminating any sagging or distortion. They are durable and long lasting and can withstand being in wet areas as well as all other areas of your home.

They can be designed to fit onto most windows, including bay windows. The outer PVC coating means they are easy to wipe over or dust. Slats are easily moveable to allow just the perfect amount of light or air in, often in sections allowing you to manipulate certain parts of your window (especially helpful when only part of your window affects areas with reflection).

The solid elliptical blades are available in various sizes, which your technician can discuss with you to ensure you will have the perfect fit.

These shutters will bring a little bit of the Hamptons into your home.
