Vertical Blinds in Newcastle & Lake Macquarie

Are vertical blinds right for your home?

Vertical blinds have been a practical favourite for decades because they solve two problems at once. Tilt the slats and you control light and privacy without opening the door. Draw them fully aside and the sliding door is clear for the kids, the dog or the barbecue. Few blinds cover a large area of glass as cost-effectively.

The fabric slats come in a range of colours and fabrics that are durable and easy to live with, and they suit homes as well as offices and other commercial spaces. CBI Blinds has installed white vertical blinds on a corner window in Cardiff and in other Newcastle homes. Because each slat hangs separately, a single damaged slat can usually be replaced without replacing the whole blind.

Verticals are less suited to a room where you want a soft, decorative look. Veri Shades give the same tilting control with the look of a sheer curtain, and panel glide blinds give a cleaner, more modern finish with fewer panels. For a small window, a roller or Venetian blind is usually neater. Verticals are a sensible choice for rooms that get heavy daily use, such as family rooms opening onto the yard.
