Internal Blinds for Your Windows
Internal Blinds
Internal blinds are essential for anyone who wants to safeguard their privacy, at home or in the office. While it is true that some people prefer to use curtains, window blinds have the advantage in that you get to control the amount of light that comes into your home or office. Blinds can add a touch of the exotic, or the elegant, to any room.
There are some factors to consider when figuring out what type of blinds to buy. The first factor is the style of the window blinds.
Venetian Blinds
One of the most popular blinds is Venetian blinds, which come in either Timber or Aluminium.
The Aluminium Venetian Blinds range is available in a variety of colours and finishes to suit all budgets and decors. Available in two slat sizes 25mm and 50mm, the aluminium Venetian blind is a simple, flexible and cost-effective solution for both the home and office. They are versatile and ideal for creating a modern look while providing full light control and privacy.
Timber Venetians
Add a touch of warmth and purpose to any room with our classic Ultrawood Range and Cedarline Range.
The Ultrawood slat range comes in 50mm and 65mm slats are offered in six (6) colours. Ultrawood is easier to lift and lower and has matching straight valance and bottom rail. Ultrawood does not absorb moisture making it highly suitable for wet and humid areas including kitchens and bathrooms.
The Cedarline slat range is made from the highest quality genuine Cedar and comes in 3 slat sizes, 46mm, 60mm and 84mm. All three slat sizes are offered in Oil or Lacquer finish.
Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds are aptly named since they have vertical panels. Ideal for floor-to-ceiling window
spaces and slide door entries, our vertical blinds are the perfect solution for vast areas. Offering a simple and easy operating mechanism, the vertical blind is an incredibly versatile and user-friendly product. The vertical blind is available in either 89mm or 127mm slat widths and is also available in many ranges and colours.
Panel Glide Blinds
Panel Glide blinds are similar to vertical blinds except the panel are much wider. An ideal solution for covering large expanses of windows, including bi-fold and sliding doors, the panel glide system is both decorative and functional, adding a touch of elegance to any room. Available in many colour tones and styles, the panel glide system also offers multiple panel widths to suit any purpose.
Roller Blinds
Roller blinds are the most popular type of blind and can be either block-out material or screen material.
Blockout Roller Blinds
Providing a minimalist charm and elegance, our classic Holland blinds are made using durable translucent or block-out fabrics. Our Holland blinds come in many fabrics and colours as well as your choice of a plain, designer or elegant bottom finish or a coloured ellipse bottom rail.
Screen Roller Blinds
Perfect for a room with a view, our selection of screen roller blinds is ideal for allowing for uninhibited views whilst still providing privacy, sun protection and natural filtered light.
Bottom Rails
Our bottom rails come in ellipse shape with a selection of colours to suit any colour scheme and can be fitted to either the block out or screen roller blind.
Roman Blinds
Roman blinds are available in three distinctive styles, the Classic, Tropicana and Pacific, the popular Roman blind has a timeless simplicity that enhances a sense of space through texture and light- a must for any contemporary setting.
Available in either translucent or block-out fabrics, the Roman blind also features alloy batons that are available in many colours and ensures your blind maintains its original form.
Honeycomb Shade Blinds
Honeycomb shades look like, honeycombs. The effect is generated through layering opaque fabric. A special quality of these window blinds is that their layering allows them to insulate the room by not letting heat or cold in, helping with energy savings.
The Honeycomb collection includes a beautiful new range of translucent, blackout and semi-sheer fabrics in a variety of delicate colours, has a neat stacking system providing a clear view of the outside when not in use, and comes with a choice of operating systems and clever designs.
White backing facing outwards provides a clean and uniform appearance from the outside. Cords are hidden within the fabric, with no external holes to allow light from coming through.
Motorisation of Blinds
Motorisation of blinds is growing in demand as more people look to automate processes in the home or office. Motorisation has taken blinds into a new era of sophistication, convenience and functionality. Allow yourself the freedom of cord-free control with our motorised feature. Without the confusion of cumbersome cords, you’ll be able to control your blinds at the touch of a button.
Summary
When hanging your window blinds, you need to remember to leave enough space so that they can hang freely when extended. Many of the home furnishing stores will install window blinds for you, sometimes at a very low cost. If you’re not sure that you can install your window blinds yourself, the best thing is to hire a professional.
