They’re Easy to Install

This is one of the main advantages of perfect fit blinds, they are one of the easiest types of blinds to install, with no drilling necessary. Each blind is made up of 4 channels (top, left, right and bottom) and these are simply screwed into place. Then you just need to take the supplied brackets and slide these between the rubber beading on your window and the glass. The frame then just simply clips onto the bracket. If you’re looking to save money but are worried about installing the blinds yourself, then Perfect Fit blinds are a great option. Make My Blinds have a beautiful range of Perfect Fit blinds as well as some handy measuring and installation guides, just to make your life a bit easier. 

They’re Versatile

Perfect Fit blinds are ideal for almost any UPVC window, but one of the main advantages of Perfect Fits is that they are also great at covering windows that other blinds may struggle to cover. They are a great way to cover French doors and patio doors as there is often not enough room in the recess to install any other type of blind in there. As well as this these blinds are ideal for conservatories, covering multiple windows can be a bit of a chore, but with Perfect Fit blinds being really easy to install it makes that process a lot easier, and quicker.

They Look Great

Perfect fit blinds are sleek and beautiful, if you’re going for a more modern interior then Perfect Fit blinds are a great option.

The aluminum slats also give the blinds a premium look and feel, and a premium looking blind will always elevate your room to the next level. 

They offer precise light control

One other advantage of Perfect Fit blinds and slatted blinds in general is that you get more precise light control. The slats can be easily adjusted with the twist of a cord, giving you precise control of how much light enters your room. You can go from letting the light in completely to blocking it out and giving yourself complete privacy.

No clutter

The name is in the title, Perfect Fit blinds offer a perfect fit, the system for Perfect Fit blinds is also very minimal, this makes them ideal, especially for smaller windows as there is no clutter. If you’re after a clean, minimal, interior look, then Perfect Fit blinds are ideal for you.

6 Different Types of Blinds and the Right Décor for Them

Are you considering including some privacy in your home with blinds? Here are 6 different types and how you can decorate with them the right way!

While the purpose is essentially the same, there is a significant difference between blinds and shades that people often forget about. Depending on the décor of your home, shades might be a better fit, but there’s hardly any décor for which there isn’t an appropriate blind. You can always visit Next Day Blinds to get the consultation right from your home, but it maybe isn’t a bad idea to first get acquainted with a few general types of blinds on your own first.

Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds either open from the middle or each of the individual slats on the track separate from side to side to let air and light in. These are a better fit for particularly large windows that run from floor-to-ceiling or for patio doors.

Venetian Blinds

In perfect contrast to the vertical blinds, the Venetian blinds are more suited for smaller windows. These horizontal blinds also happen to be the most common choice for blinds all across the US. They are generally not particularly fancy, but a lot depends on the product’s design and customizations as well.

Micro and Mini Blinds

Micro blinds are essentially the same as Venetian blinds, but the slats are a lot less wide at roughly one-inch, while mini blinds have even less width at only half-an-inch. The smaller slats make these a better fit in homes with a contemporary décor.

Panels

Panels are one of the common choices for people looking to put blinds on their patio doors or huge windows. The slats move on a track, just like vertical blinds, but they are usually much wider than verticals and provide better privacy. They feel at home in bedrooms that are themed in a somewhat classy, but reserved manner.

Metal Blinds

The usual choice of metal in blinds is aluminum, but stainless steel is also an option, albeit a costlier one. Nevertheless, the extra durability is probably going to be worth the additional cost in the long run. Whatever your choice of metal may be, know that metal blinds are not for everyone. The seamless design looks shiny and allows perfect control over light, but in a house made completely of wood, it may look out of place. A minimalist décor, on the other hand, might go pretty well with metal blinds.

Bamboo Roller Blinds

There are no slats in bamboo roller designs and they can be easily rolled up like shades because of that. Opting for roller blinds made out of bamboo is perfect when you are trying to give your home a natural look. Place a houseplant or two beside the window to perfectly match the blinds.

Do keep in mind that most of what you just read is not binding and there is no set rule. Feel free to improvise if you think it works with your décor, as these are only meant to introduce you to the basic idea of using blinds in interior decoration.
