Why you should buy made to measure blinds.

You’ve moved into your new home; all the furniture is bought, and the rooms are decorated and ready for you to welcome visitors. But there’s one thing missing, and it can make or break your room- blinds.

Blinds or curtains are the centrepiece of a room. They determine how much light is let in to your room, control your privacy and give you an outlet to express your style. There’s nothing worse than badly fitted blinds that sit wonkily against your window or hang too low, so it’s important you get them right.

If you’re sick of the off the shelf blinds available at your local store, it’s time to invest in the alternative; high quality, made to measure blinds.

Made to measure blinds have several benefits. Here, we have put together a list outlining those benefits and explaining why made to measure blinds are always the best option when it comes to window coverings for your home.

Perfect fit

Unlike off the shelf blinds, made to measure blinds are manufactured to fit your windows exactly. This means that they will fit your windows perfectly without the hassle of having to cut them down or alter them yourself. Since they’re made for the window, you’re putting them in, installation is quicker and easier than it would be with off the shelf blinds.

Off the shelf blinds often need to be sawed down to your desired size, leaving rough edges or fraying. With made to measure blinds this isn’t an issue, and you are left with a high quality, polished finished every time.

Made to measure blinds are an ideal option for those with weird and wonderful window shapes. Since they are handmade, if your window is extra wide, curved or simply huge, your order can be tailored to suit your needs. Off the shelf blinds only come in set sizes meaning there are limited options for large windows.

Long term savings

Although made to measure blinds may be more costly up front than off the shelf blinds, they will save you money in the long run. Because made to measure blinds are crafted with precision on an individual basis, using high quality materials, they are higher quality than off the shelf blinds. This means that you won’t need to replace your blinds as often as you would if you buy off the shelf. Made to measure blinds save you time, hassle and money in the long run. So, despite the higher upfront cost, made to measure blinds are ultimately more beneficial to have in your home.

Enhanced features

Unlike off the shelf blinds, made to measure blinds can offer enhanced light control and privacy. Because they are made to fit your windows exactly, they can be crafted to eliminate any gaps on your window where unwanted light seeps through. Our Perfect Fit Blackout Blinds offer a Perfect Fit for your window and block out all light to your room, making them a perfect solution for those wanting their room to be in complete darkness.

Wider range to choose from

Off the shelf blinds often have limited stock, meaning there are less colour and pattern options for the fabrics. Our made to measure blinds are available in a huge range of patterns, colours and fabrics so you can customise your blinds to suit your style.

Unlike off the shelf blinds that are often made in bulk, nearly all our made to measure blinds are handmade by humans in our warehouse. That means the cords, operating systems and fabrics used in your blinds are all a higher quality, ensuring a first-grade product.
