Roller Blinds – What You Need to Know
V Custom Blinds is one of the most popular window furnishing options available in Australia, offering a range of practical benefits. They are easy to use, maintain privacy and allow natural light into a room whilst also controlling the sun’s glare and heat. They can be fabricated in many different styles and colours, with a choice of light control fabrics from transparent to blackout, depending on your needs.
Roller blinds can be fitted inside the window recess “Inside Mount” or on the architrave/wall outside a window “Outside Mount”. They can be operated by chain, spring assist or motorised and are available in a wide selection of fabric styles, textures, patterns, and opacity – from sheer through to room darkening sunscreens. They can be single, couple (aka linked) or dual rollers with alternating slats of sheer and blockout.
The Ultimate Guide to Cleaning Roller Blinds in Brisbane
During manufacture, the fabric slats in a roller blind may occasionally show signs of curling as they are stretched and pulled over the metal tube. This is a normal characteristic of the fabric and is not considered a fault.
Roller blinds have a lower level of ‘light bleed’ than other overlapping fabric options, however there is still the occasional gap along the sides and between the top architrave and the roller headbox. To minimise this, you can upgrade to a cassetted roller blind with side channels for an improved finish and superior blocking of daylight. The cassetted option is ideal for media rooms and bedrooms for people who sleep during the day and want to darken the room without disturbing their natural light.
