VERTICAL BLINDS

Vertical blinds were very popular and sought after in the 1980's , however in the past year there has been an interesting turn in fashion trends returning vertical blinds to the interiors of the top interior decorated apartments and homes.

When designing and planning interior decorating of any internal space, one takes into account the colour theme, central focus point as well as playing with the use of lines. Vertical Blinds are an excellent means of achieving vertical lines to any artistic interior. These beautiful vertical blinds lift the appearance of the height in any room and create a feeling of space or a higher ceiling in the room.

As far as the functionality of vertical blinds is concerned, these are better suited to large expanses of glass, like sliding doors and patio doors simply because they traverse horizontally, making them easier to operate. Products that have to be raised and lowered such as wooden blinds, aluminium blinds or roman blinds, can be heavy and comparatively difficult to lift. Vertical blinds are therefore the best solution for these types of doors or floor to ceiling windows.

Vertical blinds are a great alternative to curtains as they offer the extra benefit of tilting to filter natural light into your room while excluding glare from sunlight. Vertical blinds offer great practicality, as a simple tilt means you can control your privacy and light beautifully. Blackout fabrics can turn day into night, which will help you with that sleep in on weekend mornings! Vertical blinds can be combined with more opaque fabrics to provide privacy and control of sunlight. For maximum light, simply pull them all the way back. 

Vertical blinds are easy to operate with a cord set either to the left or right hand side.The chain alongside the cord, tilts the vanes to varying degrees, to enable light control and to increase privacy. Chains are fitted to weights set at the bottom of each of the fabric vanes to ensure each vane is perfectly parallel to the vane on each side. The weights also garauntee that the fabric keeps its shape perfectly.
