Ask the Expert: Why Made-To-Measure Blinds?

Blinds are a chic and popular window dressing that can make your home design pop. They are available in a variety of  different textures and styles. Plus, when you order made-to-measure blinds, they will be designed specifically for your space, meaning the design and structure will be on point for your windows, giving a flawless finish. Bespoke blinds offer a beautiful and seamless appearance, brimming with sophistication while also being surprisingly affordable.

Made-to-measure blinds can include roller blinds, verticals, wooden and any other style you desire or imagine. Whether you would like plain fabric, offering a sleek look, or something more elegant and intricate, bespoke blinds provide unparalleled design flexibility. Buying bespoke means you can even make some styles from flame retardant or waterproof materials to provide safety and practicality for every room. There are several other reasons why we recommend having an expert craft new blinds for your home.

As the name suggests, the blinds are designed for your exact window dimensions with a custom design that seamlessly fits your window and interior style – whether inside or outside the window frame. This creates a sleek and sophisticated look for your window, particularly if you have unusual shaped windows. Good fitting blinds have many benefits, including keeping light out, improving privacy and temperature regulation, plus being visually striking.

Custom made blinds allow you to choose your fabric or materials for every aspect of your blind construction, and usually the selection available is far more than you would ever find in high-street shops. So whether you want a plain colour scheme, a loud print, or a specific finish of wood, that can be achieved with bespoke blinds. You can also elect to have a lining on your blinds, including the option for blackout or thermal for room insulation. These options are great for adult and child bedrooms where a dark environment is needed for sleep. However, they also work well in home offices and theatre rooms.

The British Blind and Shutter Association regulates the safety mechanisms on bespoke blinds to protect children and pets. We ensure all of our blinds adhere to the guidelines set out, including short cord mechanisms to keep them out of reach.

Made-to-measure blinds add style and sophistication to your home decor. They are a quick and easy way to makeover your space as it’s not the finishing touches of vases, throws or wall art that makes the most dramatic impact; it’s undoubtedly the window coverings. In our opinion, they are the best way to redesign your space and add new life and design aesthetics without changing an entire room. Adding beautiful window treatments is one of the quickest ways to change the feel of a room.
