Where are Vertical Blinds Commonly Used?

Vertical blinds are extensively used to cover large windows or sliding doors. They are installed 3 inches above the floor or window pane. The main advantage of these is that they offer an unobstructed view when slid open and also impart height and spaciousness.

Are Vertical Blinds Good for Privacy?

Absolutely. Mikes Carpets Discounter provides a range of vertical blinds that can be closed strategically to provide enhanced privacy without blocking out light completely. This provides you an opportunity to enjoy both privacy and brightness.

How Can Plantation Shutters be Operated?

Our plantation shutters are fairly simple to use. They can conveniently be opened and closed by hand.

Where in Your Home can Plantation Shutters be Installed?

Due to their aesthetics, density and energy efficiency, plantation shutters are a great addition to bedrooms and living rooms. They are also durable enough to be used in children’s rooms. Fauxwood varieties can also be installed in moisture prone areas such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Why are Roller Blinds a Good Choice?

Roller Blinds provide a higher degree of privacy and temperature control than curtains. They are also available in a wide range of colours, styles, designs and patterns. Additionally, they are extremely user friendly.

How to Clean Your Roller Blinds?

Generally, it is best to follow the manufacturer's instructions when cleaning roller blinds. However, since they are mostly made of fabric, mild detergents or vacuums can be used to give them a basic clean. Nonetheless, it's best to consult or book an appointment with a professional curtain cleaner before doing the job yourself.

How to Select the Best Roller Blind for Your Interiors?

Remembering the effect of colours on your style of interiors can help you select the right roller blinds. As a rule, contemporary interiors can be elevated by dramatic or bold-coloured blinds. For adding a down-to-earth feel to modern interiors, neutral and earthy tones can be used. You can also call our team at Mikes Carpets to guide you through the selection process when going through our versatile collection.
