Vertical blinds consist of slats of stiffened fabric, plastic, or metal hanging by one end from a track; like the horizontal versions, the slats can be rotated 90 degrees to allow light to pass through or to fold up on one side of a door or window.
While the construction of these blinds seems straightforward, they’re designed to allow ultimate control over privacy and light in any environment.
The vertical louvres tilt and turn depending on how much of a gap the user wants, plus they can also be drawn back completely to enable more light into a room. That makes them a great option for any space where control is paramount but where good design is also crucial.
Vertical blinds are an excellent option for bathrooms and kitchens. The louvres provide additional privacy and flexible light control and we recommend selecting one of our moisture-resistant or wipe-clean fabrics to prolong the life of your blind.
Cleaning the rail that the blinds hang from can be time-consuming, but this is an occasional task and so won’t need to be undertaken too frequently. To clean the rail, unclip each of the blinds and wipe the rail with a damp cloth. If you want to ensure that the blind mechanism continues to work unimpeded, you can spray a small amount of silicone spray into the side rail – just be careful not to stain the fabric of your louvres when you rehang them.
