A Guide to Blinds for Bedrooms

Blinds for bedrooms are probably the most important sets of blinds in your home. You spend lots of time in your bedroom and so it’s important you find the perfect window dressing solution for your needs!

Before picking blinds for bedrooms, you should consider what you want them to do. For example, are they a style accessory that simply needs to look nice? Will you be layering them up with curtains? Are they a solution to grant you more privacy? Do they need to block out the light to ensure you a good night sleep? Your answers to these questions will determine the style of blinds that you decide to go for!

At EasyFit we know blinds for bedrooms inside out! So, we’re well equipped to advise you on the best and most sought-after blinds for bedrooms on the market…

1.         Stylish Blinds for Bedrooms

When choosing blinds for bedrooms the first thing you’ll probably consider is how they look. You might even already have a style in mind or have picked a colour! But before you make your mind up, let us run you through your options…

EasyFit has 8 different blind styles for you to choose from, all of which are perfectly fine blinds for bedrooms. Our range includes Venetian, vision, pleated blinds and more! However, our most popular blinds for bedrooms are rollers, Roman and Vertical blinds. That’s probably thanks to their blackout lining options!

Roller Blinds for Bedrooms

Our most popular choice of blinds for bedrooms, roller blinds are practical and stylish. Their simplistic design makes them a sleek choice that works well in literally any room. Style them up with fancy chains or motorisation… They’re super easy to make your own!

Roman Blinds for Bedrooms

Roman blinds for bedrooms are the perfect choice for adding a warm and luxurious feel. Our range of bold and neutral soft fabrics offers something for all interior design palettes. Not only that, but their fabric also conceals the headrail to enhance their appearance even further. If it’s sophistication you’re looking for, we think Roman blinds may be perfect for you.

Vertical Blinds for Bedrooms

A timeless design that’s always in! Vertical blinds for bedrooms are a classic choice. They’ll enhance any bedroom with their fabric textures and luxurious colour pallets.

Of course, the style of blinds you choose will depend on the look you’re going for. We recommend browsing our entire range to make sure you’ve explored all your options before placing an order! Whatever you decide though, we have hundreds of colours, hues, and prints for you to choose from. Be it a subtle white or a statement floral, there’s a style for every taste and décor at EasyFit.

2.         Blackout Blinds for Bedrooms

Next, you’ll want to decide whether you need your blinds to block out the light. Blackout blinds for bedrooms can help you to sleep better and prevent the early morning light from waking you up. Sound good? If so, you should consider blackout blinds for bedrooms!

So, as we mentioned earlier, roller, vertical and Roman blinds are ideal bedroom blinds. This is not only because of style but also due to their brilliant light-blocking properties when opting for a blackout fabric.

Lots of our fabric blinds are available in a blackout, making them the perfect choice of blinds for bedrooms especially! Blackout blinds also boast thermal properties, so not only will they help to block out the light, but they’ll also help to regulate the temperature in your home too! Sounds like a win-win to us!

3.         Blinds for Bedrooms with Light and Privacy Control

If you value the natural light in your home but your privacy is equally as important, you’ll be wondering what your options are when it comes to blinds for bedrooms. verticals, Venetian’s, and vision blinds are all perfect choices for light and privacy control.

Both vertical and vision blinds are available in blackout fabrics. Venetians unfortunately are not. Therefore, we’d say vertical and vision blinds are a great choice of blinds for bedrooms. Especially if blackout, light and privacy control are at the top of your list!

However, Venetian’s will work great as blinds for bedrooms if you plan to layer them up with curtains too!

A1 Blinds Wins BBSA Award for Best Community Impact

A1 Blinds Wins BBSA Award for Best Community Impact

We’re incredibly proud to announce that A1 Blinds has won the BBSA Award for Best Community Impact, recognising the work we have been doing to support people experiencing homelessness in our community.

This award means a great deal to our entire team because it represents something much bigger than a business achievement – it reflects the power of a community coming together to help people who need it most.

The BBSA Awards at The Midland Hotel, Manchester

The British Blind and Shutter Association (BBSA) is the UK’s only national trade body representing companies that manufacture, supply and install blinds, shutters and awnings. The organisation plays a vital role in maintaining high standards across the industry, promoting quality, safety and professionalism.

Each year, the BBSA hosts its annual awards to recognise the very best companies within the blinds and shutters industry, celebrating excellence in areas such as innovation, service and community impact.

This year’s awards ceremony took place at the iconic Midland Hotel in Manchester, bringing together blind companies from across the UK for an evening celebrating the achievements of the industry. The event featured great entertainment, including a comedian, and a fantastic atmosphere throughout the night.

We were incredibly proud to hear A1 Blinds announced as the winner of the BBSA Best Community Impact Award.

To be recognised by the BBSA alongside some of the best companies in the industry is something we are extremely proud of.

The Community Initiative That Led to the Award

This award recognised a community initiative that was incredibly important to us.

Last year, A1 Blinds launched a project aimed at helping people experiencing homelessness in our local area.

We created a community drop-off hub where local residents and businesses could donate sleeping bags and essential items to help people sleeping rough.

The response from the community was incredible.

Businesses, residents and organisations from across the area came together to support the initiative. People donated sleeping bags, warm clothing and essential supplies with the shared goal of helping those facing extremely difficult circumstances.

Once collected, the donations were delivered to HOPE Charity, who work directly with people experiencing homelessness and ensure that support reaches those who need it most.

A True Community Effort

While A1 Blinds helped organise the initiative, this achievement belongs to many people.

The response from the local community was inspiring.

Local businesses supported the campaign, residents donated generously, and our entire team got behind the initiative.

This award is therefore not just a win for A1 Blinds – it is a reflection of what can happen when a community comes together with a shared purpose.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who took part.

Continuing Our Commitment to the Communit

Winning the BBSA Best Community Impact Award has reinforced something we strongly believe in.

Businesses have the ability to make a real difference within their communities.

Following the success of this initiative, we have decided that A1 Blinds will partner with a different charity each year to continue supporting important causes.

Our goal is simple – to continue using our platform to support people and organisations doing incredible work.

Supporting Smile for Life Charity

This year we are proud to be working with Smile for Life Charity, a fantastic organisation based in the North East of England.

Smile for Life’s mission is to put a smile on the face of every disabled and disadvantaged youngster.

The charity empowers children and young people to achieve their potential and live full and happy lives.

Through a range of support initiatives and programmes, they help young people overcome challenges and experience opportunities that may otherwise not be available to them.

We are excited to support their work and help raise awareness of the difference they make within our region.

Looking Ahead

Winning the BBSA Award for Best Community Impact is a huge honour for everyone at A1 Blinds.

More importantly, it reinforces the values that drive our business every day.

Supporting our community

Helping people where we can

Working together to make a positive difference

This award represents the combined efforts of our team, local businesses, residents and charities working together.

And this is only the beginning.

We look forward to continuing our community initiatives and supporting even more great causes in the future.

Thank you to everyone who supported the initiative – this award truly belongs to the whole community.

Case Study: Bradley Hall Head Office

Case Study: Bradley Hall Head Office

Custom Branded Roller Blinds for Bradley Hall’s Grey Street HQ

Client: Bradley Hall
Location: Grey Street, Newcastle upon Tyne
Sector: Commercial Property
Scope: Custom Branded and Non-Branded Roller Blinds Across Two Floors
Project Status: Delivered to Spec, On Time, Within 2 Weeks

The Project

We were commissioned to design and install a combination of branded and non-branded roller blinds for Bradley Hall’s stunning new head office on Newcastle’s iconic Grey Street. The blinds not only enhance the aesthetic of the new space, but also provide practical year-round comfort.

What the Client Needed

As the building is listed, Bradley Hall were unable to use external signage to display their brand identity. They needed an interior solution that would subtly represent their brand in a stylish, professional way, while still providing effective solar shading and heat retention.

The Challenge

  • No external signage permitted due to the heritage status of the building.
  • No parking for unloading equipment.
  • 4-metre-high windows requiring specialist ladder access.
  • Narrow spiral staircases, making it difficult to manoeuvre materials without damaging freshly decorated walls and doors.

The client also required a rapid turnaround ahead of moving into their new space.

How We Overcame It

Our team designed and manufactured a blend of branded and non-branded roller blinds, ensuring a cohesive look across two floors. The installation required exceptional care and expertise to work safely within the constraints of a heritage building.

Despite the logistical hurdles, we delivered the entire project from initial enquiry to completion in under 2 weeks, meeting Bradley Hall’s deadlines without compromising on quality.

The Result

The finished installation delivered:

  • Stylish integration of Bradley Hall’s branding into the new office.
  • Effective shading and thermal control for year-round comfort.
  • Seamless delivery within a limited timeframe.
  • A high-quality installation, despite the challenges of restricted access and building constraints.

Client Feedback

“Huge thanks to you and the team Kevin! Fantastic service from start to finish, quick turnaround and quality product and installation. They look great!”

– Sharon Boyd, Chief Operating Officer, Bradley Hall North East / Yorkshire

The Bigger Picture

This project demonstrates our ability to combine branding, design, and practicality, even in heritage or conservation-area buildings where signage is restricted. It also underlines our expertise in overcoming complex site challenges and delivering under tight time pressures.
