Patterned Roller Blinds

When it comes to picking your kitchen window blinds, there are so many options to choose from. Picking the right blinds will depend on your privacy and light requirements, the window placement, and your style.

Firstly, you need to consider: How much cooking do you do? Are your blinds over a sink? How much privacy and light control do you want? What is your colour scheme? The list goes on! Whether you need maximum light control or a splash-proof fabric – A1 Blinds has a set of kitchen window blinds to suit you.

The kitchen is the hive of the home for many, and probably where you spend most of your time! As such, it deserves the best of the best. It’s easy to overlook your kitchen window blinds while you’re busy picking out appliances, splashbacks, and flooring, but they offer a great opportunity to add a personalised touch.

The Benefits of Kitchen Window Blinds

Blinds are an increasingly popular choice for the kitchen – and the bathroom too!

Likely because there are so many wipe-clean and humidity-resistant options now available. Therefore, kitchen window blinds are easy to maintain in comparison to other window treatments such as curtains and voiles. Most you can quickly wipe or dust and they’ll be good as new!

There are thousands of kitchen window blinds to choose from, including colours, patterns, fabrics, and styles. You can truly make them your own and add your stamp to your kitchen!

Kitchen window blinds are also available at almost every price point, so we’re sure you’ll find one to suit your budget and style too!

So with that in mind, check out our top picks and tips for your kitchen window blinds:

Roller Kitchen Window Blinds

Roller blinds are the most versatile style as they work great across your entire home. They come in a huge assortment of colours and designs, so we have styles that will complement or contrast your kitchen beautifully.

Perfect for your kitchen window blinds - our range includes a large collection of PVC roller blinds that are mould, odour, and moisture resistant, and can be wiped clean for easy maintenance. This makes them ideal for humid environments like your kitchen, or bathroom too!

You could also consider a blackout roller blind if your kitchen welcomes a lot of natural light. Blackout roller blinds are a great choice for open plan kitchens where you sometimes need a darker room to watch the TV and other devices.

Roman Kitchen Window Blinds

A less common choice for kitchen window blinds, but equally as beautiful. Roman blinds are an elegant way to inject some prints, textures, or colours into your kitchen. Roman window blinds offer complete light and privacy control, which makes them ideal for a front-facing or open plan kitchen space.

However, if your window is directly above the sink or close to the hob, we recommend choosing a PCV roller blind instead. Roller blinds offer the same size canvas for design as Roman blinds do but are much easier to clean.

Vertical Kitchen Window Blinds

Vertical blinds are great kitchen window blinds. Due to their two control options, these blinds offer brilliant light and privacy control. You can tilt, open, or fully close your blinds, depending on your preference or the time of day.

Verticals are extremely easy to keep clean too, and thanks to their vertical slats they collect very little dust! Stains can be wiped clean or machine washed – with just a dusting required between deep cleans!

A1 TOP TIP: When opting for fabric kitchen window blinds like any of the above, you should avoid cotton, linen, and silk. They’re likely to fade or shrink in moist environments. Instead, go for a moisture-resistant material as it won’t be affected by the kitchen’s moist environment. You can ask our team for advice about this!

Venetian Kitchen Window Blinds

Venetian blinds offer an understated elegance to any room and bring great light and privacy control. They are available in wood, faux wood, and aluminium – all of which come in a range of colours.

Take note: real wood Venetians will warp in moist and humid conditions, so it’s wise to consider a faux wood slat for your kitchen window blinds! They offer the same natural look, but with no warping and less cost! It’s a win, win.

Cleaning Your Kitchen Window Blinds

Kitchens are havens for bacteria, moisture, and grime, so cleaning your kitchen window blinds is key. Caring for your kitchen window blinds will improve their lifespan and keep them looking newer for longer.

You should never use strong chemicals on your blinds as this might cause them to discolour or stain. Instead, wipe a dirty mark with a damp cloth as it happens to avoid any deep staining.

At A1 we recommend incorporating cleaning your kitchen window blinds into your general cleaning routine. Just another one to add to the list!! This will ensure they remain in tip-top condition and will prevent you from having to replace them.
