Buying made to measure blinds

Made-to-measure blinds come with a long list of benefits. They are superior to their off-the-shelf alternatives for many, many reasons. But first, let us explain exactly what they are!

Made-to-measure window coverings are made to fit your window and your window only. Using your measurements, and the fabric and lining that you’ve chosen, we go off and make your blinds, exactly as you’ve asked. No two made-to-measure blinds are the same. And that’s their beauty.

The alternative option is off-the-shelf blinds. These are the ready-made option. You’ll find them packaged up on the shelves, in set colours and sizes. Whilst they’re a quick solution to window coverings, off-the-shelf blinds are unlikely to fit your windows and meet your requirements as they should.

Stay with us whilst we take a closer look at the benefits of made-measure-blinds to help you make the best decision possible…

Discover 6 Benefits of Buying Made-to-Measure Blinds

The benefits of buying made-to-measure blinds for your home go much further than just looking good. Here are a few…

You’ll Get a Better Fit When You Choose Made-to-Measure Blinds

Windows don’t come in standard set sizes, so why should your blinds? The key benefit of buying made-to-measure blinds is they fit perfectly. They’re made to the exact size of your window and therefore will do the best possible job in blocking the light and providing privacy.

Another benefit of buying made-to-measure blinds is you can choose the way they fit too! Opt for a recess fit where the blinds are attached right up against the window. Or you can choose an exact fit. This is where the blind is attached to the wall above the window, covering both the window and a small part of the wall on either side of the recess.

Choosing a fit will depend on many factors, but mostly comes down to which look you prefer! Just having the option though is a key benefit of choosing made-to-measure blinds!

Perfectly fitting made to measure blinds

Made-to-Measure Blinds will Improve Energy Efficiency

Because your blinds fit perfectly, they’ll work perfectly too! Made-to-measure blinds will improve the energy efficiency in your home by helping to keep the warmth in and the cold out. With little-to-no gaps between your windows and blinds, air will be prevented from escaping.
