What Are The Best Blinds For Bathrooms?

What are the best blinds for bathrooms? Finding the right ones could help you make your home warmer, dryer, and prevent issues developing over time. Blinds play a crucial role in your home, helping you control the light that gets into it, and helping to insulate your living space too.

However, in bathrooms, they could be even more important. Bathrooms get hot and humid, especially after you use them for long baths and showers. As a result, the room can become damp and moist, creating the conditions for condensation to thrive. At A1, though, we’re the number one for a wide range of blinds that are best to protect your bathrooms.

How Do Blinds Protect Bathrooms?

The best blinds can prevent condensation from developing in your bathroom. When you take a bath or shower, the moisture and heat they create can collect inside the room. Because of this, the room becomes humid and damp, which means your windows steam up. Over time, that could develop into condensation, or even mould.

By installing A1’s innovative blinds, you’ll be able to stop the condensation from building up on your windows. That way, they’ll be able to last longer, and you won’t have to worry about health risks or rising repair costs.

Additionally, the best blinds can make a bathroom more private. You’ll be able to tilt the blinds down whenever you need to, meaning no prying eyes will be able to look inside. Not only that, but blinds create another layer of insulation for your bathroom, minimising the amount of cold air that can travel into the room.

As a result, you’ll be able to improve the performance of your home. When you keep the blinds down, you’ll get more warmth and privacy, but you won’t have to lose out on light. You can always open them back up to light your bathroom, and they can improve air circulation to reduce the risk of condensation even further.

Roller Blinds For Bathrooms

Roller blinds are one of the best choices for bathrooms on the market today. Roller blinds use fabrics in the majority of their designs, which can deal with moist conditions. That means, when the room heats up and dampness begins to develop, the fabric can absorb it and prevent that moisture from collecting.

Additionally, A1 offers blackout roller blinds: robust designs that shut out the world around you when you need it. As a result, you’ll get total privacy and peace of mind whenever you go to your bathroom.

Vertical Blinds For Bathrooms

Vertical blinds also provide sufficient protection for your bathroom windows. They use a range of fabrics in their design too, but you’ll be able to benefit from a greater level of choice. For example, you can select vertical blinds with PVC fabrics and chainless weights.

Blinds like these are incredibly resilient, and they can withstand even the hottest, most humid conditions without a hitch. Vertical blinds are also easy to use and open for years to come, giving you total control over the performance of your space.

Venetian Blinds For Bathrooms

Venetian blinds are a design classic from A1, adding leading quality designs to any bathrooms. However, if you have a bathroom that can become damp and wet, these timeless options may not be the right choice. Venetian blinds have slats in their design which aren’t as resilient as other options.

Because of this, dampness and water can corrode each slat over time, meaning the blind wears down over time. If you’d like to find out more about Venetian blinds in bathrooms, though, you can always consult one of A1’s experts.

Roman Blinds For Bathrooms

If you’d like to fit roman blinds for your bathrooms, it may depend on the size of the room. If you have a larger, well-ventilated bathroom, then Roman blinds add real class and complete protection. However, in a smaller room where the humidity can be more intense, Roman blinds aren’t as useful.

However, their sophisticated look is ideal for any room, especially traditional spaces. You’ll bring blinds to your bathroom with a softer design, giving you an ideal balance of light and privacy when you pull them down.

With our blinds, you’ll be able to protect your bathroom’s windows from dampness and humidity, as well as provide your home with a little more brightness or privacy. That way, you’ll have more control over the look and feel of your bathroom, whether you’re using it or not.

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.

Case Study: Newcastle Airport Control Tower

40 Custom Tension Pleated Blinds for Newcastle Airport Control Tower

Client: Newcastle International Airport
Location: Newcastle upon Tyne
Sector: Aviation – Air Traffic Control
Scope: 40 Bespoke Tension Pleated Blinds
Project Status: Delivered to Spec, On Time

The Project

We were commissioned to design and install 40 custom tension pleated blinds for Newcastle International Airport’s Air Traffic Control Tower. This wasn’t a straightforward job – the tower’s unique architecture and operational restrictions made it one of the most complex installations we’ve ever delivered.


What the Client Needed

The brief was simple but critical: shading and light control in an environment where visibility is paramount. The blinds needed to perform flawlessly to reduce glare, enhance comfort, and maintain clear sightlines for air traffic controllers at all times.


The Challenge

The tower’s design created a unique technical challenge: the windows are narrower at the top than the bottom. This meant the blinds had to operate in reverse, raising issues with tension and stability. Getting them to stay in place was no small feat.


How We Overcame It

Our team engineered a bespoke solution using:

  • Maximum tension throughout each blind system
  • Reinforced top bars for durability
  • Discreet magnetic strips to keep blinds secure

We worked closely with the client throughout, being completely transparent about the technical hurdles. To build confidence, we produced working samples that were tested and signed off before full manufacture began.


Working in a Live Air Traffic Control Tower

This wasn’t just a technical project – it was also about precision planning. Working in one of the UK’s busiest control towers meant strict security measures:

  • All staff were vetted and security checked
  • Passports had to be presented at each entry
  • Access was tightly restricted and visits limited

To meet these requirements, we planned every step of the installation around an agreed programme of works, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and minimal disruption to airport operations.


The Result

The new blinds have transformed the tower environment, delivering:

✅ Glare reduction
✅ Improved visibility for controllers
✅ Greater comfort in a high-pressure workplace

The client praised not only the quality of the finished product but also our communication, professionalism, and how smoothly the installation was managed.


The Bigger Picture

This project highlights our ability to deliver bespoke blind solutions for even the most complex environments. From innovative design to meticulous project management, we can adapt to buildings where standard systems simply won’t work.


Ready for the Next One

If you’ve got a project that demands a tailored shading solution – whether it’s an airport, a commercial office, or a uniquely shaped building – we’ve got the expertise to deliver.

Get in touch with our team today to discuss how we can design, manufacture, and install blinds that meet your exact requirements.
