Instead of pull cords, they have a rechargeable lithium battery with up to 6 months of power. Hang in under 30 seconds and take control over light, privacy, and temperature with classic blinds that have a unique, contemporary edge.
Black Thermal Blinds
Window blinds are one of the most cost-effective and versatile forms of temperature management in your home. However, the darker the colour, the more the blind will absorb wavelengths of light. When this light is absorbed, it is re-emitted in the form of heat energy. This can happen with your black blind, it can literally heat up and radiate heat energy into your room. Therefore we recommend black thermal blinds with a white or pearlescent reflective backing which reflects the sun's
rays back outside so they are not absorbed into the blind and re-emitted back into your home. Learn more about thermal blinds in our dedicated thermal blinds section.
Black Venetian Blinds
Manufactured from lightweight aluminium, our black Venetian blinds are easy-to-install and perfect for high-humidity spaces. The horizontal slats can be rotated in unison, providing excellent light management. Or, draw them upwards to allow the light to flow in easily. Venetian blinds are wipe-clean and 100% waterproof - ideal for kitchens and bathrooms alike.
Black Wooden Blinds
Find a window coverage solution that is durable and timeless. Our black wood blinds are made-to-measure for your windows, with horizontal slats crafted from either real wood or solid PVC. They rotate in the same way as Venetian blinds, making it easy to manage light and privacy. And, with wood being a natural insulator, these window blinds help to lock the heat in during the coldest months too.
Black Skylight Blinds
If you’re working on a loft conversion or extension, you’ll want to consider a black skylight blind. With brushed aluminium channels that lock fabric in taut, these blinds offer the best light management as well as a thermal barrier to manage interior temperatures. They are made bespoke using your unique window code and are easy to fit in under 30 minutes too.
Black Day Night Blinds
Black day and night blinds offer a perfect balance of functionality and style, allowing you to easily control the amount of light and privacy in your room. The deep black colour adds a sense of elegance and modernity, creating a striking contrast against lighter-coloured walls or furnishings. With their dual-layered design, day and night blinds provide versatility throughout the day, enabling you to adjust the natural light while maintaining privacy. Whether you desire a bold statement or a subtle backdrop, black day and night blinds are a fantastic choice that will undoubtedly elevate the overall aesthetic of your space.
Black Bedroom Blinds
A bedroom should be one of the most inviting and cosy spots in your home and a black blind will help to achieve just that. Temperature management is incredibly important in these spaces, along with light control. Our bodies work on a circadian rhythm - we release hormones and activate certain functions in line with the 24-hour clock. Originally, humans would rise with the sun and return to sleep when it set. And, in order to get the best night's sleep, we still need to do this. Blue lights from screens and long working hours have thrown our ability to sink into restorative sleep with ease, which is why creating the perfect room for sleep is vital.
Research has shown that a bedroom needs to be around 18 degrees for our bodies to start to cool down and slip into restorative mode. A black translucent roller blind is the most cost-effective solution here. The multi-layer fabric features a white or silver backing that faces out onto your windows. When heat from the sun bears down on the glass, this backing reflects it away and prevents the thermal energy from passing through. The woven fabric diffuses light rather than blocking it entirely, meaning you can maintain a comfortable temperature in your bedroom while still popping in to use it freely during the day.
Black blinds for bathrooms
Even the smallest rooms in your home can become beautiful havens with black blinds, and bathrooms are no exception. Privacy is the most important factor here and the perfect window dressing will ensure no peeping toms look in while you’re bathing. Plus, let’s not ignore the high humidity. Bathrooms are incredibly wet, with showering, bathing and even toilet flushing. Normal window blind fabric is porous, absorbing moisture from the air and locking it in the fibres. Over time, these can deteriorate fibre strength and create the ideal breeding ground for mould. What you need here is a window blind that is non-porous and easy to clean in order to maintain hygiene in your bathroom.
Black 100% waterproof roller blinds are a perfect choice. These custom-designed window dressings have a flexible PVC coating that blocks moisture absorption. Instead, droplets either fall down and off or can be wiped away using a microfibre cloth. Don’t be worried about an overtly shiny surface either - modern technology has allowed waterproof blinds to blend in seamlessly without shouting about their benefits. And the options are just as extensive as their traditional counterparts too. Choose black 100% waterproof blinds with crackle details, stripes or solid black hues to complete your bathroom to perfection.
And, once again, you can find the same styles in black 100% waterproof cordless blinds and 100% waterproof motorised roller blinds for bustling family bathrooms.
Black blinds for sliding doors or patio doors
Patio doors and sliding doors present specific demands that need to be considered when shopping for the perfect blind. You need to prioritise access at all times - both to maintain useability in your home and for safety purposes. You also need to find a window covering solution that makes the most of these all-glass structures while giving you essential privacy. And, you need a blind that suits the needs of everyone in the household - especially the safety of younger family members.
Black vertical blinds are considered to be one of the most practical solutions here. Until roller blinds, they don’t require an excessive amount of force to draw them to one side. Multiple horizontal louvres hang from a top rail and can be rotated to your exact requirements. This way, you can reduce glare on television screens, give yourself the ultimate privacy or keep an eye on little ones in the garden. Fitted within the recess, you can maintain the space between the blind and sliding door, preventing any issues with the opening. And, when it's time to step outside, draw the slats to one side and you have full access without any trip hazards.
We design all of our black vertical blinds with child safety in mind too. All full sets come with either an easy-break chain connector or a child-safety clip for wall installation. And, once again, you don’t have to choose a plain design if it doesn’t fit in with the room’s aesthetics. Whether you go for a subtle linen style or a matt alternative, there will be an option here.
Black blinds for bi-folding doors
If you’re dressing bi-folding doors, you could also opt for a black vertical blind. But our favourite blind here would have to be a black cordless roller blind or a black motorised roller blind. The beauty of bi-folding doors comes in their design - the ability for each panel to fold up against each other and provide full access to the outdoor space. Vertical blinds can be drawn entirely out of the way to allow for this folding, but they don’t work as seamlessly if you only want to adjust a single panel. Or, if you’re looking for more acute management of light and privacy (for example, if you’re overlooked by neighbours through a certain panel or at a certain angle).
Choose black cordless roller blinds or black motorised roller blinds and you’ll solve all of these complications. If you order individual blinds for each panel and fit them individually too, you lose none of the movement and adjustment that bi folding doors at famous for. Both styles can be adjusted without the use of bulky or potentially harmful pull cords. Cordless roller blinds use a spring-loaded mechanism while motorised roller blinds have a discreet and rechargeable lithium battery fitted within the top roll. With the latter, there is also the option to link your blind up to a home smart hub system. So you can either use the supplied remote or voice control to adjust window coverage to suit.
Black blinds for kitchens
Kitchens are one of the busiest and most demanding rooms in the house. For many, they are regarded as the hub of the home and used for everything from quick breakfasts to lavish evening meals. The right window blinds have a lot to stand up against. Kitchens have high-temperature fluctuations due to the multitude of cooking appliances. They are also rooms with high humidity, whether this is due to endless washing up or washing machines rolling all day long. The right window blind for your kitchen can withstand these high fluctuations. And a black Venetian blind is the ideal choice. Made from lightweight aluminium, they are easy to install in under 30 minutes and instantly add style. The horizontal slats will visually expand the look of your window and rotate in unison to provide excellent light control. Each one has a slight curve, allowing it to close flush against the next and block out the world when you’re relaxing with family. Plus, the metal construction creates a wipe-clean surface that is simple to maintain. Dust with a microfibre cloth or wipe the surface down when needed to remove grime. Aluminium is a non-porous material so it stands up well to high humidity and will work to inhibit the growth of mould too. Plus, it is highly unlikely to absorb unwanted cooking smells to keep your kitchen inviting and homely.
3 Reasons To Love Black Blinds
1. They work with everything
When we say that black blinds are versatile - we truly mean it. With such a wide range of types out there, we can guarantee there is a blind out there that fits beautifully into your room. Crisp black roller blinds are perhaps the most flexible, adding a deep injection of contrast to any space. They are perfect in minimalist rooms with white walls or when partnered with grey hues. Equally, full-length black vertical blinds reduce unwanted light significantly (even when you consider the gaps between each of the slats). They visually make ceilings look taller and windows longer, making them perfect for offices and living rooms alike.
If you’re creating a country-chic or rustic-inspired room, choose black wooden blinds. With their naturally insulating nature, these textured blinds maintain a comfortable temperature inside. They can be adjusted to your exact requirements for heightened light control and pair beautifully with other wooden accessories and details too. So trust us when we say, choosing a black blind will be the best thing you ever did for your interior style.
2. They make a room feel warmer
Now it’s true that black blackout thermal blinds have a very specific role - they’re here to help prevent heat loss and keep your home warmer during colder months. But did you know that choosing the colour black for your windows can help too? Due to the darker tone, black blinds will hold on to more heat, allowing less of it to disperse throughout the day. In those cold winter months, this makes them one of the best choices for reducing your dependency on central heating AND cutting your household bills too.
3. Will evolve with the family
Even if you’re not one to be drawn to fast trends, there’s every chance that your interior design preferences will change throughout the years. Households with young children need wipe-clean surfaces and extra durability while adult households can afford to prioritise style over function. As black is one of the most flexible and easy-to-style colours available, the right black blind can stand true - even if your preferences change. Choose a timeless option, such as a black real wood blind or plain black roller blind and you’ll be able to dress different accessories and change the wall colour without investing in new blinds too often.
Black Blinds FAQ's
The colour of blinds, such as black, can impact the perceived size of a room, with darker colours often making spaces appear smaller due to their light-absorbing properties. However, factors such as natural light and the colour scheme of the room can counteract this effect.
Yes, black blinds, or any dark-coloured window treatments, have the potential to make a room hotter. The reason for this is that dark colours absorb more heat from sunlight compared to light colours which tend to reflect it. When the blinds are closed and the sun is shining on them, the black blinds can absorb this heat and radiate it into the room, leading to an increase in temperature.
However, this can be mitigated if you opt for thermal blinds which have a white thermal backing which reflects the sun away from the back of the fabric therefore the blind does not absorb the heat.
