The right blinds control light, protect privacy and finish a room. This guide helps you compare the common types and measure your windows before you order.
1. Start with what the room needs
- Bedrooms: prioritise privacy and darkening for better sleep.
- Living rooms: choose a style that filters light and suits your decor.
- Kitchens and bathrooms: pick materials that tolerate moisture and wipe clean easily, such as PVC blinds.
- Offices: control glare on screens with roller or zebra blinds.
2. Compare the common blind types
| Type | Best for | Good to know |
|---|
| Roller | Clean, minimal look in any room | Simple operation; wide choice of fabrics |
| Zebra | Adjustable light and privacy | Alternating solid and sheer bands let you fine-tune brightness |
| Roman | Soft, decorative look | Fabric folds add warmth to bedrooms and living rooms |
| Venetian | Precise light control | Tilting slats direct light up or down |
| Vertical | Large windows and glass doors | Slats slide to the side for easy access |
| Wooden | Warm, natural appearance | Better suited to drier rooms |
| Bamboo | Natural texture for casual spaces | Adds a handcrafted feel |
| Honeycomb | Comfort and light filtering | The cellular structure can help soften glare and heat |
| Motorized | Large or hard-to-reach windows | Operate with a remote or switch |
3. Measure your window
- Decide between an inside mount (inside the window frame) and an outside mount (on the wall or ceiling, covering the frame).
- Measure the width at the top, middle and bottom, and the height on the left, centre and right.
- For an inside mount, use the smallest measurement; for an outside mount, add a little overlap on each side for better coverage and privacy.
- Not sure? Our team can measure on site so the blinds fit properly.
4. Keep them looking good
Dust blinds regularly with a soft cloth or brush, and follow the cleaning instructions for the specific material. Avoid harsh chemicals on fabric and wood. If a blind is stuck or damaged, our blinds repair service can help.
