Would you choose blinds over curtains though? And what are the main benefits of choosing roller blinds? How practical are these blinds? Do they need a lot of maintenance? How hard are they to install into my own home? All these questions will be answered in this blog.

Choosing Blinds Over Curtains

Curtains unquestionably have significant drawbacks that roller blinds do not. In some cases, curtains simply do not fit the aesthetic of the room, in which case a properly measured and fitted roller blind is a better option. The size of a room and the size of a window can also influence whether you use roller blinds or curtains. Curtains can make a room feel smaller than it is, is because of their bigger and bulkier design. Many people opt for roller blinds because they offer a space efficiency solution.

Longer curtains can be an issue for people who have children or plan to have children. Because the curtain is within reach of younger children, it may necessitate frequent cleaning. This also applies to people who own pets such as cats and dogs. Curtains are also more expensive to instal, maintain, and keep clean than blinds.

Are Roller Blinds Practical?

Roller blinds are a more space-efficient method of window covering. This is advantageous for people who have a lot of windows in their home or who don’t have as much space and want to make the most of what they have. Curtains can be overwhelming for people who have a lot of windows in one room and make the room feel more claustrophobic. There are also health benefits to installing blinds in comparison to curtains. One major benefit is that roller blinds don’t collect dust, unlike curtains. Which makes cleaning the window area easier. This is good for your health because dust can cause irritation and issues with your eyes, lungs and skin.

Another benefit of having blinds is that they tend to be less expensive than curtains (depending on the manufacturer). This helps people who want to renovate their homes but don’t have a large budget. Also, for little cost, blinds do make a big impact on a room’s aesthetic.

If the blinds do require some attention, it is most likely that a screw needs to be tightened again; nothing complicated.
