Thermal Translucent Vertical Blinds
Energy-saving solar reflective vertical blinds can serve two particularly useful purposes: trapping more heat in the home during cooler weather and reflecting more sunlight away in the summer months. Thermal Translucent blinds feature a solar-reflective pearlescent backing which reflects much of the heat and glare out of the home whilst preserving your indoor climate. These intelligent blinds create a comfortable living environment allowing you to enjoy the outdoor light whilst controlling glare and heat gain. Translucent solar reflective fabric allows the daylight to filter in so is ideal for living rooms and conservatories.
Discover a window dressing that saves you money with our Energy Saving Solar Reflective Vertical Blinds. Effectively blocking out harsh sunlight, they are a stylish and practical option that manages the heat within your home - what more could you ask for?
Thermal Blackout Vertical Blinds
Made with a light-blocking material, these window blinds lock in the heat while keeping harsh sun rays out - perfect for creating that ideal sleeping environment in your bedroom. Like âstandardâ blackout blinds, thermal blackout blinds block light. However, where they differ is that they are also designed to boost thermal efficiency due to their solar reflective backing which does not absorb the heat that some blackout fabrics may. Our large range of thermal blackout vertical blinds insulate your room. In short, they help a room retain more of the heat that is generated within it from your central heating. Windows are a primary source of heat leakage in the home and this can negatively affect your health and wellbeing at home not to mention your energy bills. Every one of our thermal blackout vertical blinds is given a "climate and light control" rating which scores it out of 4 for climate and light control within your home. Our ES-SO (European Solar Shading) training allows us to confidently advise you on which thermal blinds are best for your windows.
All of this helps to reduce energy bills as the more heat your home retains, the less often you are likely to need to crank up your thermostat. Of course, these blinds can also, for this reason, lessen your reliance on fossil fuels and so be a good thing for the environment.
Blackout Vertical Blinds
Our Blackout Vertical Blinds give your family the darkness needed for a good night's sleep and the privacy they deserve. Using a light-blocking material, these bespoke window blinds allow you to control the amount of light that floods your rooms. And, they come in a range of colours and styles. Blackout slat blinds are often affixed to particularly large windows, vertical windows of the blackout kind can make particular sense in bedrooms. This is because even just a little bit of light entering a room can hamper attempts to sleep in it.
Fortunately, while blackout fabrics for blinds might typically be chosen for very practical reasons, going down this route would still enable you to choose from a wide range of styles for these blinds. We offer blackout blinds in colours including white, cream, and grey.
Textured Vertical Blinds
Textured and woven vertical blinds are beautiful as they add depth and dimension to an otherwise flat surface. Texture is an important interior design tool and is used in a way to add contrast and visual interest to a space and it is used often in schemes where only one colour is being used. Texture can be either tactile or visual and the use of quality textured blinds makes you want to reach out and touch them.

Vertical Blinds: FAQs
What are the best vertical blinds for bathrooms?
The best blinds for this purpose need to be able to hold their own against water âotherwise, mould and mildew could too easily develop on the fabric if it is dampened. Even if the window isnât particularly close to the bath or shower, consider staying on the safe side and opting for our waterproof or PVC vertical blinds. Either way, any water that does get on them should just sit on the surface and be easy to wipe away.
How do you clean vertical blinds?
Usually, any dirt that gathers on vertical blinds can be speedily dusted off or hoovered up. It would be worthwhile for you to dust or vacuum the blinds as a routine part of your weekly clean â and, in addition, undertake a monthly deep clean of the blinds. Still, exactly how often vertical blinds do need cleaning, and how thoroughly, can depend on how often they are actually used. Blinds in barely-used rooms may only need hoovering once a month, while it could be a very different matter for blinds in high-traffic rooms.
How do you measure for vertical blinds in a bay window?
There is no single, simple answer to this question, as that answer will depend on various factors â including whether you are seeking vertical blinds for an angled bay window or a box bay window.
There is also the question of whether the blinds will be fitted âtop fixedâ, where the blind is screwed into the top of the recess, or âface fixedâ, where brackets are screwed into the window frame. Fortunately, on our website, we have prepared two separate guides on measuring vertical blinds. Those guides cover measuring for, respectively, angled bay windows and boxed bay windows.
Are vertical blinds child-safe?
In 2014, changes were made to safety standards for blinds. As a result, child safety devices are included as standard whenever we sell a new blind that has a looped cord. However, if you have kids and want to keep them safe in the presence of your vertical blinds bought from our team, you would still need to add the child-safety fitting we supply free of charge. This fitting is designed to, once installed, prevent the blindâs cord or chain from posing a potential risk.
We have also posted other tips for keeping blinds safe from children. For example, you should avoid placing a childâs cot, bed, playpen, or highchair close to a window, while there are cleats or cord tidies for use in keeping loose cords beyond childrenâs physical reach.
Another option would be for you to choose quality roller blinds over vertical blinds, as the former are particularly child-safe on account of not having chains.
Can you replace vertical blinds?
If the existing rail for your vertical blinds still works well but you want to replace the blindsâ louvers with of a different design, rest assured that we stock replacement vertical blind slats. You could be tempted to buy from this selection if, say, the existing fabric of your vertical blinds looks slightly tired and worn or incurred more serious damage. For example, the fabric could have a tear or perhaps have been marked with a pen.
