Choosing blinds & awnings in Milton Keynes & Bedford areas

by Yager Blinds

Ther are numerous ways of purchasing blinds and awnings in Milton Keynes and Bedford areas.

There are several types of window blinds and each has their own list of advantages or disadvantages. You will most likely be familiar with the options such as vertical, roller and venetian.

Lets’ tackle which type of blind you may wish to consider first. The most versatile and hence most popular is the common vertical blind. These allow you to draw the blind to the left, to the right or open them like a pair of curtains. You can also angle the slats to control privacy and light at the same time. By getting the angle right you can stop people seeing in and yet still allow light into your room.

The simplest blind is the humble roller blind. This is just basically a piece of fabric stuck to a barrel that you can wind up or down. You don’t really get to control any light though. Roller blinds are still very common and account for about 20% of all blinds sold.

Wood venetian blinds are growing in the popularity stakes and will probably overtake the vertical blind in a few years. The disadvantage is that the slats are thicker than fabric, so if you draw the blind up you are often left with a large “stack” of wood at the top of your window which can block the light.

If you are in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire or Buckinghamshire then you have plenty of places to buy a blind. I would recommend though that you call one of the choose at home companies. Make sure they offer a free no obligation quotation and have more than one sample book to show you for the type of product you want. These companies are very good value and you get a complete service all the way through the buying process.

Buying blinds online these days can be risky, as many companies have been set up out of a spare room to cash in. They can be poor quality products because you don’t get to see any samples before you buy. You also will have to fit the blinds yourself.

We can recommend the following suppliers as they offer a complete service and pass on the savings they make by not renting shops. Blind Inspirations cover all of Hertfordshire, and Yager Blinds cover Milton Keynes and most of Buckinghamshire. We personally have dealt with both companies and were delighted.
