Roller Blinds frequently asked questions

Window Roller Blinds or Window Shades, are a type of window covering that consists of a single sheet of fabric or other materials, such as vinyl or polyester, which is attached to a roller mechanism. The roller mechanism allows the blind to be easily raised or lowered, either manually or through motorized operation.

Window roller blinds are designed to fit within the window frame or be mounted on the wall or ceiling above the window. They provide a versatile and convenient way to control the amount of light entering a room, as well as offering privacy and insulation.

These blinds are available in various styles, colors, and patterns to suit different aesthetic preferences and interior design schemes. Some roller blinds also come with additional features such as blackout coatings to block out light completely, thermal linings for improved insulation, or UV protection to shield against harmful sun rays.

They are incredibly easy to clean and operate, making it simple to keep them looking like new.

Window roller blinds are popular in residential and commercial spaces due to their sleek and compact design, ease of use, and ability to provide a neat and uncluttered appearance. They can be found in living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and various other areas where privacy, light control, and aesthetics are important considerations.

Some people confuse the term Window Roller Blinds with Window Roller Shades. In practice it is the same, Roller Blinds and Shades are made of beautiful fabrics that matches your windows and walls. They neatly roll up to the top of the window when raised and decorate the window when they are down.

Normal Blinds are hard window coverings made with horizontal or vertical slats. These are very useful to redirect the view or the light, in case you need this. Before they didn’t look good over time, but now there are very good quality blinds.

The choice of installing shades to roll over or under is up to you. However, keep in mind that installing shades to roll under is a better solution if privacy is a priority.

It depends on your decor. Some people might choose a color that contrasts with their wall or even try to match the blinds with the wall.

It is up to you. However, if privacy is your goal, make sure that all your shades have the same opacity. And, for the sake of curb appeal, aim to get roller blinds that are white on the side that faces the street.

Roller blinds filter light, but light filtering depends on the type of roller blinds. For maximum light filtering of nearly 100 percent, consider roller blinds noted as blackout blinds in their product descriptions.

Roller blinds with higher opacity can block out sunlight, which can improve energy efficiency in the summertime. However, if the fabric is not heavy, it won’t offer much energy efficiency in winter.
