We need vertical blinds to help us get rid of a problem we couldn't solve on our own. They will allow you to control the amount of sunlight coming through your windows and will protect you from prying neighbors when you need some time for yourself as well. Vertical blinds are very useful, but sometimes they can develop into problems. You can have a nice view that you want to keep or an old window that you want to showcase. You may want to adjust the lighting, but you don't want to flip the light switch every time you pull the cable for the vertical shades. This article examines the problems and solutions that you can find when installing vertical blinds.
Every now and then we have points of view that we don't want to spoil. Maybe there is a beautiful forest or a garden behind your house that you want to show off. Perhaps your home has spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows that open to the ocean, lake, or golf course. You are careful because vertical blinds can block your beautiful view, especially if you were involved in creating that view. Choosing blinds that stack on the sides of windows is a good solution. They are attractive when hung from a window and when thrown to the side they are almost invisible. Vertical fabric blinds are a quiet option because they make very little noise when a breeze is blowing, whether it is a natural breeze or an air conditioner. If there are walls on both sides of the windows, you can purchase vertical shades that extend several inches and overlap the glazed portion of the walls, to ensure that the vertical shades do not obstruct the windows.
Some rooms benefit from a strong breeze from the open windows, heavy human traffic and air conditioning. This breeze moves the vertical blinds. Vertical blinds made of metal or plastic tend to make noise when moved. As we said, vertical fabric blinds make less noise. You can see this as a way to solve your problems in this area.
Patio doors are a nice addition to any home, but placing vertical shades on them could cause the slats to wobble too much. There could be some twisting issues and it can eventually ruin the blinds. Fasteners are available for French doors. This will make it easier for the window treatments to stay in a fixed position when you open the patio doors to the widest point. It may be best to make sure your vertical shades are taller than your doors, so that when you adjust them, the openings are completely clear and more accessible to you.
Finally, everyone has the kind of windows in our homes that we have a hard time accessing. For these types of windows, vertical blinds matter less than the additional accessories you choose to go with them. For these windows you can get results with extra long chains or cables. These chains and cords can feel bulky in a room and complicate security concerns. You can choose remote controlled vertical blinds, if the controls for the vertical blinds are really out of reach.
Windows that are difficult to install can still benefit from vertical blinds. Problem areas are usually dormers, archways, eyebrows, and sometimes patio doors when selecting your window coverings. Creativity and the right accessories may be all you need! If you want to keep your eyesight up to date or have a window in a really bad spot, you don't have to worry about it. Your problems can be eliminated if you use vertical blinds!
