What To Know About Selecting Vertical Blinds For Elegance And Practicality

There are many factors to be considered when contemplating window and door treatments

. Shades, draperies of all sorts, and other coverings all have their advantages, and no single one of them will be appropriate for all situations. Vertical blinds have some unique properties that make them ideal for certain applications.

A special feature of the vertical blind is the fact that it moves horizontally instead of vertically. This makes it the treatment of choice for sliding doors, where a roller shade or horizontal blind might inhibit total access to the opening. Large windows also benefit from this treatment.

Horizontal or mini-blinds across very wide windows often need central support in order to hang evenly. The advantage of the vertical solution is that it will hang straight and evenly no matter how wide an area it covers. This provides a very neat and tidy look.

Because the vanes are vertical, not horizontal, there will not be as much dust accumulation. This means they will stay fresh looking for longer periods between cleaning. This is especially an advantage when the window blinds are in hard-to-reach places, such as skylights.

A very great amount of control is possible with the vertical blind, because the vanes can be finely adjusted to admit as little or as much light as desired. This control will also relate to the amount of privacy provided in different positions.

These window blinds can be installed with a wand at the side for rotating the vanes as well as opening and closing them horizontally. This avoids having a cord and a chain hanging by the side, which children and pets can become tangled in. Thus, it is a safer choice, as well as looking neater.

A major advantage is that they can be custom made for unusual window and door openings. Curved windows, such as bay windows, as well as arched windows and doors, are two examples. Horizontal blinds and other decorating choices such as shades will not work in these applications. As noted above, they can even be installed as coverings for skylights.

The window blinds can be made in a variety of materials, from very sheer to completely opaque. This, along with the ability to vary the angle, gives one a large degree of control over the light that enters the room. Sheers blinds can still provide privacy along with light, while dense materials such as wood can totally darken a room when closed.

Another advantage is that the operation of the window blinds can be motorized. Opening and closing the vanes, along with the horizontal control, all happen at the push of a button. Even more convenient, this operation can be put on a timer mechanism based on time of day or level of light. This also enhances security when one is not at home.

Vertical blinds are a very versatile solution in a lot of situations. They are suitable for applications where other coverings do not work as well. Easy to use and easy to care for, they are often the best option.
