Finding the right window treatment can be a daunting task. From bay windows to sliding doors, here’s how to find the perfect blinds for your home features.

Choose the right blinds and you can transform a room. Depending on the features of your home and how you want each space to feel, blinds can lend themselves to a range of solutions. Whether you’re looking to for a contemporary dressing for your conservatory or want to block the light from your bedroom, there are plenty of stylish possibilities to explore.

Best blinds for warmth and energy efficiency

If your home tends to get a little chilly during the winter months, keep the heat in with thermal blinds and slash those energy bills. This charming Bari SPC blind is coated with a solar protective coating that helps keep rooms at a constant and comfortable temperature. As well as keeping you snug in the winter, it reflects the sun in the summer - perfect for a south-facing room.

Best blinds for light and privacy control

Take precise control of the amount of light coming into a room by fitting a Venetian blind. Practical and stylish, this type of blind has slats that can be tilted for privacy, making it ideal for a bedroom facing neighbours or a public space. These window dressings are available in a range of finishes, including this comforting caramel cream aluminium Venetian blind.

Best blinds for a good night’s sleep

Blackout blinds are becoming increasingly popular. They help shield against any unwanted night-time lights as well as the daytime sun. So if you work irregular shifts or simply want an undisturbed night’s sleep, quality blackout fabric is the answer. This sturdy Spun Pearl blackout blind perfectly complements a classic yet contemporary space.

Best blinds for bathrooms

Bathrooms and other humid spaces need blinds that are completely waterproof. From roller blinds to skylights, there are a wide range of window dressings that are made-to-measure in splash-proof material. While real wood in a bathroom can be a recipe for disaster, this Ecowood Deluxe Sumatra Satin blind in quality faux wood won’t warp or crack if it gets wet.

Best blinds for trickier windows

A flawless fit really gives a window the wow-factor. But there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to larger windows or those with different shapes. Whether you’re fitting blinds to French doors, bay windows, bi-fold windows or sliding doors, those trickier spaces are easy to fill stylishly with a made-to-measure service.
