Why are Vertical Blinds Popular?

Article Category: Home Management

During the late 1970s through the 1980s, vertical blinds had been the fad when it comes to home decoration. People took down their window curtains and draperies in favor of blinds that they mounted inside the frames of their windows. Since then, a lot of people have switched to window blinds to cover and decorate their windows.

Why are vertical blinds so popular? The answer is simple—these blinds offer many advantages that draperies and curtains don't. They enable you to open your windows and let some light in while helping you keep your privacy in your room. Curtains and draperies cannot provide the same level of lighting control and privacy. Opening the curtains to allow some light to enter the room can work against your privacy. That's a big disadvantage for curtains in bathrooms and bedrooms. Conversely, closing the curtains won't allow others to see you inside your room, but you'll be deprived of light coming from the outside.

Vertical blinds are also in-demand these days because they are easy to clean, especially the smooth and sleek PVC blinds. Dust does not settle quickly on verticals, unlike curtains that attract a lot of dirt and dust. And compared to Venetian or horizontal blinds, verticals don't need tedious and constant dusting. Just a few wipes on the vertical slats can eliminate the dust that has gathered on the surface. Even dirty fingerprints and grime can be easily removed from verticals by cleaning them with a damp sponge and detergent. With curtains, wiping off dirt just won't do the job. You have to either wash it or have it dry cleaned and ironed. What a hassle, isn't it?

Verticals offer flexibility when it comes to installation. You can install them either outside or inside the window frame, to the left or to the right, and to the middle or near the middle. What's more, these blinds can be installed even by those without any experience in mounting blinds onto windows.

Blinds with vertical vanes are affordable, and they are readily available in stores and website that specialize in window treatments.

But like other window blind types, verticals also have their disadvantages. The only major setback of these blinds is their poor insulation. Of all window treatments, verticals have the least insulating ability. Since the vanes of the blinds cannot be closed tightly, heat and cold can easily pass through the gaps between the vanes. That means you cannot expect much power savings from using verticals at home.

Nevertheless, vertical blinds are still preferred by many homeowners and interior designers because of the many benefits they can provide. If you are looking for blinds that are easy to maintain and affordable, then verticals are your best bet.
