Window blinds and shutters are a necessary addition to the home for a number of reasons, allowing you to block out light, stylishly decorate rooms and truly curate an atmosphere. With a wide array of styles and varieties to choose from, there’s an option for everyone – but how do you approach this without breaking the bank? Decorative accessories and additions for windows hardly have a reputation for value, therefore you may want to consider different options before investing. 

Within this detailed guide, let Blinds of All Kinds take you through everything you need to know when searching for quality on a budget, from the type of space you’re looking to add to, to some of the leading blind styles you could be in the market for.

A Necessary Feature

Imagine how bare your windows would look without blinds, curtains or shades? Often overlooked as an important measure within a living space, bedroom or other area, there’s an everlasting appeal to these elements that you may not be considering. From a budgetary point of view, a professional installer can typically install brackets into a window frame, mount a blind and attach the components in a matter of minutes, while curtains or other alternatives can prove a lot more difficult to install in many cases. 

Also of benefit, blinds enable you to control the brightness in a room, making them an ideal option for bedrooms, home offices and more. Most blind types also deliver a heightened level of privacy that can’t be achieved with many other window covering options. Because blinds can be completely closed, they can make it more difficult for strangers to look in, enhancing security. Finally, blinds are extremely easy to keep clean, with  occasional dusting or scrubbing sufficient to keep them looking brand new.

Cost-Effective Options

Finding good value on a budget is tough at the best of times, let alone locating deals when you’re dealing with options as high-quality as blinds and shades. As well as shopping around for deals and offers, you should be well aware of reputation when ordering from any manufacturer. Balancing out the reputation and expertise of any supplier you’re acquiring from should provide peace of mind that the items you’re looking to acquire will arrive in great shape, ticking all boxes. At Blinds of All Kinds, window coverings are our specialty, with several depots and a reputation for quality. 

Our inexpensive blinds offer a rich and elegant atmosphere for your space, representing a simple solution to improve the appearance of your walls and windows. Available in a variety of prices, colours, and styles, it doesn’t take much effort to choose a blind appropriate for your home. Often made to measure and bespoke in nature, whether you choose contemporary or classic décor, you can be confident that your blinds will look great in your house, and won’t break the bank either.

Blind And Shade Types

The array of blind and shade types available to you can prove troublesome when settling on just one or two types to have installed, as you won’t want to complicate matters by mixing and matching too much. Though many different design options exist within the Blinds of All Kinds collection, below are just a few of the prominent varieties that we would recommend taking a look at.

Roller Blinds

A common option within modern homes, and among the most popular types of blind, a roller blind represents a single piece of fabric which wraps around a casing and fits into the top of your window frame. Often operated up and down by a pull cord or by a side-winding chain mechanism, roller blinds can be adjusted to the exact height you need, ensuring practical use.

Vertical Blinds

Suitable for larger windows and doors, vertical blinds are a popular type of window blind that consists mainly of a headrail and vertical strips of fabric. If you’re looking to cover full-height windows or doors, then vertical blinds are more often than not, the least expensive solution. Their simple design makes them extremely easy to measure, manufacture and install too.

Roman Blinds

Made out of fabric that gradually folds up as the blind is opened, roman blinds are constructed with mounting slats, which are connected to cords and into the back of a fabric panel. When the blind is lifted, the cords pull the slats together and force the blind to fold into pleats. Classic in style, Roman blinds have remained popular for hundreds of years, and for good reason.

Smart Blinds

Smart blinds are motorised and often allow you to control the blinds themselves using an app on a smartphone. Thankfully, many different styles of blinds can be motorised, from roller blinds to roman blinds. They may also have built-in light sensors that allow you to adjust them based on the exterior lighting, while some smart blinds support integrations with the most common virtual assistants.

Setting The Scene

As mentioned earlier, the blinds or shades you invest in for your home or workplace will vary in design, shape, function and application, and for these reasons, we feel it important to outline some of the more prominent settings in which you may want to accommodate such features. Browse just some of the suitable options.

Spacious Conservatories

The appeal of a spacious conservatory area will likely be that it offers an excess of space which can be utilised as you see fit. In this instance you’ll likely be opting for blinds or shades as a space-saving measure, with visually pleasing roman blind options a suitable substitute for curtains, able to fully cover window panes and sections of glass. 

Modern Communal Areas

Being able to control the prevalence of natural light within a communal area is a big benefit, and thanks to smart blinds and other easily controlled shade and blind varieties, you can switch from a lively and bright space to a productive area with soft lighting in a matter of seconds. This element of control and choice makes such blinds a sensible choice.

Family Living Spaces

Within your family reading space, you’ll likely favour the added security offered by a set of blinds or shades, allowing you and your loved ones to relax and in peace with the knowledge that you’re obscured from the outside. Easy functionality means you can just as easily unfold your blinds to embrace the natural benefits of sunlight.
