ROMAN BLINDS IN LEEDS & WAKEFIELD

What are Roman Blinds?

Roman Blinds are made from fabric and open using a chain or cord mechanism. The fabric stacks up evenly when being opened, and when fully open appear smooth, clear and without dents. They add style, sophistication and elegance to the room, making it seem welcoming and comfortable.

Roman blinds are made using a fabric which is designed to pleat when the blinds are raised, which is how it stacks evenly. The blinds use mounting slats that are connected to cords, which are pulled together when the blind is lifted, forcing the blind to fold into the signature pleats. 

There are a range of different fabrics that can be used for Roman blinds. From silk and cotton to linen and synthetic fabrics, there are a wide range of different fabrics available for use to be designed as Roman blinds. 

It’s one of the reasons that Roman blinds are such a popular alternative to curtains. In fact, they sort of bridge the gap between curtains and blinds. They provide the same warmth and blackout as curtains, with all the great space saving and convenience of blinds. With so many patterned fabrics available, there’s a wide variety of different colours, patterns and textures available for you to choose from when picking out your Roman blinds. 

Roman blinds allow you to control the light coming into your home or office incredibly quickly and easily. Adjustment based on the time of day or the current season is easily performed, and blackout options are readily available if you’re looking for an option that provides total darkness. Want a more energy efficient solution? You can even add thermal lining to your Roman blinds. 

Roman blinds can be easily fitted either inside or outside the window recess. Fitting them outside the recess can allow for increased light and is easy to install, whereas inside the recess can save space and provide even greater blackout.
