| The
Horizontal Blind Option
Venetian
blinds allow you to control the light into your room by adjusting
the position of the slats. They also allow you privacy if
you tilt them at an angle so that passer’s-by cannot
see into the room whilst still allowing you to see out. This
option undoubtedly provides and stylish look for smaller windows
but becomes an unwieldy, heavy and potentially expensive choice
for French doors which, when fully raised, obscures a considerable
percentage of your view and light. Other examples of horizontal
blinds – Roman, Roller and Austrian are all adjustable
but again not necessarily the best option for your French
door as the design does not lend itself to ease of operation
in a doorway setting.
The
Vertical Blind Option
Vertical
blinds offer a contemporary look, employing flat fabric slats
which don’t obscure your view and offer you the option
to adjust the slats to give you privacy or simply to control
the amount of light entering the room. When you want to open
them fully, you also have the option of drawing the blind
back completely where it sits neatly against the window aperture
wall. As with Venetian blinds, vertical blinds can be dusted
and wiped with a damp cloth if they become marked. Their construction
allows you to replace individual slats if they become damaged
– rather than replacing the whole blind.
