Perhaps the most popular blind sold today, roller blinds are featured in a huge number of households throughout the country. Not only do they come in a massive range of style options, with a variety of colours, patterns, materials, and textures to choose from, but they are also among the cheapest blinds sold today.
A great aspect about roller blinds is the fact that they can be custom-made to suit any window size while still remaining affordable. This is great for getting precise-fitting blinds without having to pay excessive fees, and given the huge range of style options to choose from it remains little surprise that roller blinds are counted among the most popular sold.
What are roller blinds?
Roller blinds are easy to identify due to their basic yet effective design. They consist of a single section of large treated material that are rolled around a metal pole which is controlled via cord, allowing you to lower or lift the blinds to a desired height.
As the materials used are almost always thick and treated, roller blinds are very effective at blocking out natural light so are quite popular for almost any room. Although given their ability to prevent light through, they are a popular option for bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchens.
Style options for roller blinds
Another reason for the widespread popularity of roller blinds is the massive selection of style options to choose from. Simply put, there are countless styles available, with various materials consisting of many different colours, patterns, and textures.
In fact, many roller blinds can be ordered with custom designs, ensuring you get a style that perfectly matches the overall décor of a room. This can be especially great for a child's room, as there are many popular children's characters that can be printed onto a set of roller blinds.
Also, you will find roller blinds are often categorised according to transparency to ensure you get a set of blinds that can block out as much light as desired. For example, daylight roller blinds are designed to allow much more natural light through the fabric, while conversely, blackout roller blinds can prevent light from penetrating the fabric.
Benefits of roller blinds
Roller blinds can credit much of their popularity to their incredible affordability. Among the cheapest blinds currently sold, roller blinds are fantastic for anyone working on a budget, meaning you can easily source a cheap pair of blinds that will still look great.
They are also sold in virtually every common window size, so finding blinds for most rooms and their windows throughout your home should not be that difficult.
Moreover, roller blinds are very simple in their design. This makes them easy to install (simply attach the brackets above the window and then connect the blinds), which maintenance is also simple as the material can be easily removed for cleaning purposes.
Of course, being so popular means that there is a huge range of designs readily available. So, it shouldn't be difficult to get a style of roller blind as there is virtually a limitless selection of fabrics, textures, colours, patterns, and sizes to choose from.
