When we think of window treatments in Allenhurst, the first two things that come to mind are generally blinds and shades. Both will have an amazing impact and transform any room in your home. If you haven’t shopped for either of these types of window solutions lately, you may be envisioning the old fashioned, basic styles that were standard decades ago. But by exploring the incredible array of blinds and shades that are on the market today, you’ll have a renewed appreciation for the functionality each style can bring to your home. By deep diving into the benefits of each including light control, aesthetics, privacy and energy efficiency, you’ll feel empowered to make the right choice for any space.

Shades are popular and oh so versatile. A soft, long window covering made of an extended length of fabric, shades allow natural light to flow into the room and give you the ultimate control of your view. The shades lift and bunch or roll around a rod and roller, cord or lifting mechanism. Shades differ from blinds as they don’t give you the same opportunity to let light filter in but you do have the chance to select a fabric with varying degrees of opacity. You can also opt to add a liner for a more blackout feel, especially for bedrooms or home theater spaces. Shades are created in many popular styles like roller shades which can cut the glare on a television screen or laptop, woven woods that are recyclable, cellular shades that provide additional insulation and Roman shades that give the room a soft classic feel. Shades are very popular window treatments in Allenhurst and beyond.

Blinds, on the other hand, are a classic solution that enhances the look and value of a home. Made of many types of materials ranging from luxurious wood, sleek metal, durable vinyl and bohemian bamboo, these beauties help you to control light and privacy with a slight adjustment of the slats. For homes with small children or pets, consider the safety enhancements that cordless options or even motorized lift options give, helping to prevent accidents stemming from dangling cords. With a variety of colors, textures and slat sizes, you can easily find a style that will suit your aesthetic, décor and privacy needs. Effective at blocking out light, blinds are a great option for nurseries and bedrooms. Woven woods have grown in popularity, as they are eco friendly and add an inviting feel to any room. Try vertical blinds as a wonderful match for oversized windows or sliding glass doors.
