Add a contemporary look to your home with pleated blinds

Pleated blinds became popular in the 1960s, when they consisted of pleated paper

and were ideal for those looking for something of great value that would add a contemporary look to any area of their home or conservatory. Today, pleated blinds are available in a wide variety of sizes and fabrics. There are even designs that are available with a reflective backing, which are ideal for those wishing to reduce the amount of heat from the sun in any room within the home.

Pleated blinds are the perfect choice for those looking for something that is simple, versatile and easy to install. These type of blinds suit any room and are designed to diffuse light instead of blocking it from a room, producing soft tones. If you wish to create a cosy, warm atmosphere in your home then you may wish to opt for red pleated blinds. For a cooling effect, blue pleated blinds are ideal.

The fabric of your pleated blinds can easily be co-ordinated with the colours of the head and bottom of the rail, making any room look great. Pleated blinds also have the smallest stack per blind drop, making them fit in easily with the rest of the room.

Pleated blinds suit all sloping windows and can be fitted into loft blinds. You can even install a detachable wand, which will enable you to easily operate blinds on windows that you are unable to reach. This prevents any cords from getting tangled, leaving your window looking much neater.

If you are planning to install pleated blinds in your conservatory, then blinds with a reflective backing are ideal, as this will enable you to keep cool during the summer and warm in the winter.

Not only are pleated blinds simple to use, they are also easy to clean. You can remove any superficial dust by using a feather duster. With modern fabrics, you may need to straighten the pleated by hand if it gets crumpled and leave the blinds closed for 24 hours. This should help to restore your blinds.

Pleated blinds are the perfect choice for those looking for something safe and simple to use, but it is important that installation instructions are followed carefully. Any chains or cords should be kept out of reach of children and kept away from playpens, cots, beds or highchairs for safety reasons.
