​
Understanding Your Options: Key Benefits of Each Blind Type.
Each window blind type at Midway Blinds offers distinct advantages, tailored to different needs and room functions in Nelson homes.
​​
Vertical Blinds.
Vertical blinds consist of long slats that rotate and slide, ideal for wide or tall windows.
Benefits include superior light filtering to cut glare, improved insulation for warmer winters, and easy privacy control. They’re great for reducing UV damage to furniture.
Tip: Choose vertical blinds for sliding doors or windows and opt for blackout fabrics if your home windows are sun-facing or face busy streets for total privacy at night times. The last thing anyone wants is for passerby's seeing inside in your home.​​​
​​
Venetian Blinds.
With horizontal slats in metal, wood, or faux wood, venetian blinds allow precise tilting. Perks encompass customisable light direction, enhanced ventilation, and a timeless aesthetic that boosts property value. They’re excellent for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms too.
Tip: For humid Lancashire conditions, select aluminium venetian blinds as they resist warping and are simple to clean with a damp cloth.
Conservatory Blinds.
Conservatory blinds are designed for angled or roof windows, using pleated or pinoleum materials. Advantages feature heat reflection to prevent overheating, UV protection for plants and decor, and year-round usability by maintaining even temperatures.
Tip: In Nelson conservatories, go for reflective coatings to combat summer heat; test adjustments during installation for smooth operation.​
​
Skylight Blinds.
Skylight blinds fit overhead openings with tensioned systems. Benefits include blocking intense rooftop light, thermal regulation to lower cooling costs, and creating darker spaces for tv/movie rooms or nurseries.
Tip: Motorised skylight blinds are a smart pick for high ceilings and pair with dimmable fabrics to gradually adjust light levels throughout the day.
​
VELUX Blinds.
Specifically for VELUX roof windows, VELUX blinds integrate seamlessly with solar or manual controls. Perks involve total blackout for shift workers, sound dampening from rain, and energy savings through insulation.
Tip: Choose VELUX blinds with anti-fading treatments for sun-exposed attics; regular lubrication of mechanisms ensures longevity.
Roller Blinds.
Roller blinds roll up neatly on a tube, available in sheer or opaque fabrics. Advantages encompass space-saving design, quick installation, and versatility for any room, with options for child safety.
Tip: For kitchens, select waterproof roller blinds; layer with thermal backings to enhance insulation in 'drafty' Nelson properties.
​
Perfect Fit Blinds.
Perfect Fit blinds clip into uPVC frames without drilling. Benefits feature draft elimination for better energy efficiency, unobstructed window opening, and a modern, clutter-free look.
Tip: Ideal for tilt-and-turn windows; choose cordless versions for safety in family homes, and match colours to frames for a integrated appearance.
How to Choose the Right Blind Type & Materials.
Picking the perfect window blinds starts with assessing your needs. For light control in sunny rooms, venetian or roller blinds shine; conservatory or skylight blinds suit extensions with lots of glass. Materials matter too - fabric for softness, metal for durability, or wood for warmth. In Lancashire's damp climate, moisture-resistant materials like PVC-coated fabrics prevent mould, while thermal linings in vertical blinds or Perfect Fit blinds help retain heat, potentially saving on bills.
Tip: Measure windows twice and consider room orientation, south-facing need UV-resistant options. Test samples in natural light to ensure colours pop without overwhelming your decor.​
​
Aftercare Tips for Long-Lasting Window Blinds.
Proper maintenance keeps your window blinds performing beautifully. For venetian blinds, dust slats weekly with a feather duster and wipe with soapy water monthly. Roller blinds benefit from vacuuming on low suction; spot-clean stains immediately. Vertical blinds should be rotated regularly to avoid fading; use a soft brush for textures. For conservatory blinds and skylight blinds, check mechanisms quarterly and clean with a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals on VELUX blinds to protect seals; gentle vacuuming suffices. Perfect Fit blinds stay fresh with occasional wiping, ensure clips are secure.
Tip: In dusty areas, use antistatic sprays; professional cleaning every 2-3 years extends life for all types. However, cleaning can be done by you using the correct methods.
