Why choose roller blinds?

Nowadays, there are many different types of window dressings on the market, but rollers remain one of the most popular choices. Widely considered the optimal window shade, a roller blind boasts plenty of features that make for the ideal window dressing.

First, roller blinds have excellent light control. While they don’t offer the 180 degree tilt of some verticals and Venetians, they can effectively block out a greater amount of light, especially if you opt for a total blackout fabric.

Roller blinds are also great in terms of space. The fabric rolls neatly upon itself, so when you want the sun to pour in, there’ll be no material cluttering up the window surrounds. This also allows for decoration upon your window sill, without the risk of bulky blinds knocking expensive ornaments off!

One of the biggest selling points of roller blinds is how easy they are to maintain. Window dressings build up a lot of dirt and grime over time, especially if they opened and closed multiple times during the day. Roller blinds are easy to wipe clean, and if they require a deeper clean, they are very easy to dismantle, machine wash and put back together. What’s more, there are plenty of water-resistant materials available for rollers, so they’re perfect for bathrooms and kitchens.

Rollers are easily the most cost-effective window solution. A fraction of the price of Romans, wooden blinds and shutters, roller blinds are ideal for those who don’t want to part with too much cash but still desire a high quality window dressing. Since they’re available in so many different colours and patterns, too, you won’t be scrimping on style when you opt for a roller blind bargain!

Roller blinds are highly functional and versatile, providing you with total privacy and light control. They are also discreet, not to be forgetting durable, and can be manufactured in a fabric and design to complement the rest of the room.
