Best Blinds and their Uses

Finding the right window coverings to suit your needs can seem like an overwhelming task, but here at Surrey Blinds and Shutters we are always on hand to share our many years of collective experience and expertise. Our aim is to ensure that all our customers are fully informed and prepared to make the best decision for their window dressing needs.

In the sections listed below we have compiled some easy to digest information on the blind styles that are generally best suited to the most common requirements. Of course there are some cases where another blind style is actually better for the space. However in most cases these selections are the most commonly used to tackle these types of windows.

Things to consider 

Of course, different window coverings suit different circumstances, such as the difficulties in tackling bay windows or rooms that require blackout or contain windows that cannot be reached easily.

Firstly it is important to know what you want most from your blind while making your selection. For instance is it in a bedroom and therefore you need a room darkening blind? Or perhaps a bathroom and would require water resistant materials? Does the window require something sturdy but multifunctional, offering different degrees of privacy and light filtering throughout the day? Shutters are for you then. 

Secondly is the size of the window or space. Some blinds do not extend beyond certain dimensions for example, whereas motorised blinds cannot be shrunk down to a size smaller than the motor itself. It is for us to inform you of your options of course. However in thinking this over you may find yourself already considering alternatives or identifying where a particular style may be better suited. 

Finally, be aware of your budget. This helps our consultants pinpoint exactly what is available to meet your needs and specifications without any surprises coming your way. Surrey Blinds and Shutters will always offer our best price first time, every time.
