Are Fabric Vertical Blinds Good?

Fabric vertical blinds are more than a good way to enhance your home. With the right design, these blinds can give you the flexibility you need to enjoy your home how you want to. Fabric vertical blinds are one of the UK’s most popular designs, with a sleek and stylish look. Operating on a top rail with several vertical slats, you can move the whole design or adjust each slat to control the light in your home precisely.

Fabric vertical blinds are one of the best ways to add these designs to your home. With a durable, hard-wearing fabric, your blinds won’t fade or wear down in sunlight. Not only that, the fabric won’t tear or fray for years to come, and vertical blinds shouldn’t fold or crease for decades either. As a result, you can design fabric vertical blinds in confidence, knowing their colours will last.

At Easyfit Blinds, you can order our fabric vertical blinds anywhere in the UK. Manufactured by expert craftspeople at our high-quality base in the North East, our blinds are market-leading designs. Our fabric vertical blinds will last for years to come, and they’ll improve insulation, reduce glare and provide privacy for your home. And, with free UK delivery, you can get them with ease anywhere in the country.

Benefits of Fabric Vertical Blinds

Versatile Fabric Vertical Blinds

One of the benefits of fabric vertical blinds is that they are versatile for your home. Because they can come in large sizes, you can install them for large glazed areas, including sliding and bifold doors. Your new blinds will be made-to-measure for your home, meaning they’ll cover the whole aperture of your window or door. As a result, you could achieve a blackout effect in any room of your home.

Fabric vertical blinds can also work well throughout the year. When the weather turns cold, fabric vertical blinds provide an extra layer of insulation for your home, making it harder for cold air to make your living space uncomfortable. However, during hot weather, your blinds will be able to reflect heat and reduce glare. Because of this, fabric vertical blinds work well for almost any purpose.

Customisable Fabric Vertical Blinds

Fabric vertical blinds are durable and hard-wearing. Because of this, the colour of the fabric won’t fade, lose its glow or shine for decades to come. So, when you pick out your new blinds, you won’t have to make a decision based on how your blinds will look in a few years. Instead, you can invest in vertical blinds in a bold colour or pattern that’ll keep looking its best as long as you have them.

At Easyfit, we allow you to fully customise your new fabric vertical blinds around your living space. You can pick the perfect colours to complement your home and the perfect patterns to stand out on the street. And, because our fabric vertical blinds won’t fold or crease for decades, you can be sure your new blinds will stand the test of time as well.

Fabric Vertical Blinds Lighting Control

When you use your home, fabric vertical blinds will help you do it in comfort. It’s because the design of these blinds allows you to control the light that enters your living space precisely. While you can pull the blinds across to reveal the full aperture of your window or door, you can adjust each slat as well. Because of this, you only allow the light you want into your home.

You’ll be able to achieve almost any effect with fabric vertical blinds. If you want privacy, you can shut them fully to achieve a blackout effect. However, if you only want to reduce the light slightly or even increase it, you’ll have the ability to do it. And, at Easyfit, you can get motorised fabric blinds that do this at the touch of a button, making it easier than ever to make your living space comfortable.

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.
