Custom Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds are a classic and reliable window covering option, perfect for wide windows and patio doors. They feature vertical vanes that rotate to easily control light and privacy, or draw neatly to the side for a clear outdoor view.
Control and Fabric Options
- Wand Control - A safer, child and pet-friendly option that combines both tilt and draw in a single, easy-to-use wand. Ideal for homes looking to maintain a clean, cord-free look.
- Stacking Choices - Customize to stack left, right, split, or center based on your room’s layout.
- Vane Widths - Commonly available in 3.5” width for a balanced and uniform appearance.
Material Types:
- PVC (Vinyl) Vanes - Durable, easy to clean, and moisture-resistant—ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and high-humidity environments.
- Fabric Vanes - Soften the look of the blinds with elegant textures and patterns. Great for living areas and bedrooms where you want a cozier feel.
- S-Shaped (Curved) Vanes - Overlapping curved vanes provide enhanced light control and an elegant draped look when closed.
Panel Track Blinds
Panel track blinds (also known as sliding panel blinds) offer a sleek, modern alternative to vertical blinds. Instead of narrow vanes, they feature large fabric panels that glide smoothly on a track system. This makes them ideal for oversized windows, patio doors, or as a stylish room divider.
Control and Fabric Options
- Wand Control - A child-safe, tangle-free option where a sleek wand is used to smoothly slide panels into position.
- One-Way or Split Stack Options - Panels can stack to the left, right, or split from the center, depending on your layout.
- Panel Widths - Available in a range from 12" to 24" per panel depending on window or door size.
- Track Options - Choose 2 to 5 track channels depending on how many panels and the stacking configuration
- Choose from a wide selection of light-filtering, room-darkening, or blackout fabrics in solids, textures, and patterns to suit any décor style.
Key Differences
- Design - Vertical blinds use narrow, rotating vanes; panel tracks feature wide sliding panels.
- Light Control - Verticals allow precise adjustment; panel tracks offer softer, broader light control.
- Application - Both work well on large windows and patio doors, but panel tracks double as room dividers.
- Style - Vertical blinds are timeless and versatile; panel tracks are sleek and contemporary.
Key Similarities
- Ideal for large windows and sliding glass doors.
- Customizable stacking options (left, right, or split).
- Wide variety of colours, patterns, and fabrics to fit any décor.
- Safe, reliable wand and cordless control systems.
