Blinds on your conservatory windows and doors will also give you privacy if you are overlooked, and will also finish off the look to your new stylish living space. There are many different designs available to choose from including Venetian style, pleated, roman, and roller blinds.
Pleated blinds are very versatile and can be used in any style of conservatory. Made to measure blinds are usually widely available.
Wooden Venetian blinds, whilst minimalist and contemporary, also add warmth to any room.
Roller blinds are by far the simplest and quickest type of blind to fit yourself. All you require is a drill and a screwdriver to hand. The roller blind itself rests simply between two brackets that are screwed to the inside or outside of the recess in the window.
Venetian blinds are the ideal solution for bathrooms where there can be moisture and humidity.
Always make sure that you measure your windows with a steel tape. Never use a cloth tape. Measure sizes to the nearest eighth of an inch to ensure accuracy. Windows are not usually perfectly square...so don't worry - you probably won't notice!
The sheer choice available for your new blinds such as PVC, natural wood, faux wood, composite wood, and aluminum, means that you have never had such a wide variety of window blinds styles and materials to choose from.
Practical Roller blinds are perfect for adding simple style to your home. Easy to operate, they are the ultimate functional blind, which can be personalised using braids and poles, plus a choice of different shaped bottoms for a truly individual look.

If you want to wash aluminium blinds, use a damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent or cleaner. Use warm or cold water - never use hot water. Make sure that you tilt the slats. Protect the floor or sill from excess water. The blind can also be taken down, placed in a bath tub of mild soapy water, then rinsed clean, wiped dry, or allowed to dry completely in the open air.
When you measure the window opening for your blinds clearly indicate which measurement is the width and which is the height. It is easy mix these measurements up! Always measure the width first, then height.
Recess: This is the measurement to use if you want the blind to fit inside a window recess. If you specify a recess measurement, most blinds companies will automatically make a tiny adjustment to ensure that your blind fits perfectly.
