Everything you need to know about finding an indoor blind installer

Indoor or interior blinds are a versatile, functional and stylish window treatment for any home. They can provide you with privacy from neighbours and passers by, protection from the harmful rays of the sun; as well as acting as a style statement that coordinates with your interior décor theme. Blinds are typically adjusted by a mechanical pulley system, with another adjuster that regulates the pitch of the vanes. The quality of blinds varies greatly, with cheaper products more likely to require maintenance – so be prepared to spend more for a durable product.

There are a wide variety of indoor or interior blinds to choose from. These include:

• Venetian – the traditional blind of choice which comes in a variety of materials including wood/timber, PVC and aluminium
• Shutter or plantation – a stylish way to add a rustic touch to any room
• Roller – a great choice if you are looking for complete privacy
• Roman – a functional and elegant choice for a period or contemporary look
• Track or vertical blinds – a functional choice that are less likely to collect dust

Automated blinds are also available to make convenience the watchword in your home, with scheduled settings that can coordinate opening or closing at the appropriate time of day. These come in a wide variety of materials, including plastic, metal, vinyl, timber, and bamboo. Choose your blind material carefully as your bathroom and lounge will have very different practical requirements in terms of the conditions they may be subject to.

• Durability – blinds will typically be exposed to the harsh UV rays of the sun, and will be subject to constant opening and closing, so choose a resilient well made product
• Adjustment – ease of adjustment is crucial for a blind, especially if it is going to be used frequently
• Maintenance and cleaning – wooden blinds are especially susceptible to collecting dust so ensure you choose a material that is suitable for the area in your home
• Light – consider how much light you need in a room, and choose your blinds accordingly
• Style – indoor blinds should compliment the interior styling of the room they are sited in
