How to choose a blind

The first thing to do is to take into account the measurements and lengths of the site where you will install them, because you don't want to buy a product that doesn't fit the measurements and lengths of the site where you will install them. measures appropriate to the space.

Types of Blinds

There are different types of blinds, so some may be more useful for certain functions than others. For example, PVC blinds are quite affordable, durable and have a long life span. good sound and heat retention.

Another advantage of the PVC shutters is that, if at any time the slats deteriorate, they can be obtained as shutter accessories on our website.

On the other hand, there are the roller shutters. Blinds with this system leave no traces of light and are good for avoiding conflicts with the weather.

We also introduce you to the wooden shuttersknown for their incredible aesthetics and that they adapt very well to the decorations; despite this, it requires maintenance from time to time and this would be investment.

Finally, it is necessary to talk about the aluminium shutters, excellent for insulating, decorating and easy maintenance from time to time.

Factors to take into account

Following on from the advice, there are other factors to take into account:

• Price: it is of great importance that you consider your budget as not all structures are worth the same.
• Room type: Please note that the amount of light entering a kitchen is not the same as that required for a bathroom or a bedroom, so you should select the type of blind according to your needs.
• The parts of a roller shutter: although there are different types of roller shutters, their function does not guarantee their quality.
• The slats: if the area where you are located is predominantly cold, these rods that protect your window should be made from PVC as this material is guaranteed to reduce low temperatures.
• The draweris the part where the slats are stored. We recommend that you think about this when looking at the catalogue.

Important aspects when choosing roller shutters

Remember, it is important to look at the product description as it will help guide you through your purchase. However, the most important thing is that are to your liking and that you pay attention to their comfort. 

Comfort

We know that we have the option of choosing blinds with different mechanisms: manual or motorised. However, motorised ones are more accessible and easier to handle.

Decoration

Not all blinds are suitable for all types of finishes, so we recommend that you look at the colour, texture and structure that is more in line with the aesthetic purposes you want to give it.

For example, for a more avant-garde you should select a blind that has modern finishes (it could be a Venetian blind) or classic terminations (in this case, a wooden shutter would be ideal).

Despite this, always keep in mind that you have to look at the above characteristics: quality, price and function of each blind; this is the only way to make the best choice without regretting it later.

Function

Just as we know the types of blinds, each of them has functions that will vary according to their material and component parts. In general, blinds have different uses, for example, some are better as noise and air insulators, others give a regulated passage to the entry of light and others prevent it altogether.

You already know that choosing a blind is not a difficult taskBut you do have to plan in your mind what is the ideal blind for you, only then will you find your blind.
