There are many types of window blinds, and each has its own set of benefits and drawbacks. If you're looking to add a touch of privacy or style to your home, you'll want to consider installing a variety of window blinds.
Types of Window Blinds
Blockout: Blackout blinds are designed to block out sunlight or other light while allowing in natural light. They are typically made from a sheer fabric that allows air to flow through them, so they tend to be more airy and comfortable than other types of blinds.
Rolled: A roller blind is made from a single sheet of fabric that's rolled up into a cylinder. They're popular for their simplicity and modern look, and they can be easily adjusted using simple hardware.
Shades: Shades are the most basic type of window blind, and they come in a variety of colors and styles. They work best if you just want to cover part of the window without adding any extra features or style. They're also good for adding privacy to windows, as they completely block out the view.
Roman Shades: Roman shades are typically made of a plastic or metal frame and fabric that's cut into an arc.
Tilt-out: Tilt-out blinds are similar to tilt-in blinds, but they have casters that allow you to tilt the window up or down instead of just pulling them back.
Translucent: Translucent blinds allow light from the room to fill out through them, giving them some privacy and the ability to filter out sunlight. They come in a variety of widths, heights, and colors.
