Product information
Vertical Blinds are probably the most versatile solution to sun shading problems and are perfect for patio doors as well as most windows. Our extensive range of colours, styles, textures and contemporary designs is certain to enhance the décor of any room in your home.
Your blind can be up to 5 metres wide. You also have a choice of headrail colour as well as where want the controls and the bunching of the vanes.
Two vane widths – 89mm and 127mm – are available, and there is an excellent selection of fabrics to choose from ...many also have matching roller blinds. If performance is important then you can have blinds that are fire retardant, blinds with reflective coatings for improved control of heat and shade and blinds for blackout or dimout for better working conditions where computers are being used
Safety features
When choosing your window blind, you want to know that it will complement your decor, give you privacy, and provide the shading from the sun that you require.
If you have young children, we encourage you to also consider the small safety features that can be added to your blind, to help prevent cords or chains from posing a potential hazard. Having selected your new blind, please refer to our list of safety features below, or contact your window blind retailer who will be happy to advise.
Cord Cleat
Can be used with Vertical, Venetian, Roller, Pleated and Roman blinds. This simple device is attached high onto an adjacent wall. The cords can then be completely wound round it, out of a child's reach.
Cord Securing Clip
This 'P-shaped' clip can be used with Vertical, Roller and Roman blinds. Mount it onto an adjacent wall and secure the cord/chain so that the loop cannot be easily reached.
Chain Tassel
For use with Vertical, Roller, Venetian and Roman blinds. You can eliminate the chain loop by using a single length chain with tassels attached to each end.
Cord Stop
Specifically for Venetian blinds, the cord stop is attached at the top of the control cord. Should undue pressure be placed on the cord running through the slats, the control cord will not feed back through the headrail to form a loop.
Breakaway Tassel
Primarily suited to Venetian blinds, the tassel will break apart if put under any undue pressure. Two separate cords mean that there is no potentially hazardous loop.
Mono Control
Mono control is a key safety feature of Vertical blinds. The chain and cord, used to rotate the vanes and open and close the blind, are replaced by a single rod.
Chainless Vanes
You can request sewn-in bottom weights on Vertical Blinds, eliminating the need for potentially hazardous bottom chains. Chainless Vanes are a standard feature of PVC Vertical.
INTU & Perfect Fit
Can be used with Vertical, Venetian, Roller, Pleated and Roman blinds. This simple device is attached high onto an adjacent wall. The cords can then be completely wound round it, out of a child's reach.
