A rundown of our blinds at Express Nets


If you’re struggling to decide on the right window dressing for your property, why not consider blinds? Whichever blinds you choose, it’s hard to deny that there’s something clinically cool about them – with their style enhanced by the wide range of colours and finishes in which they can be specified. They’re also undeniably very effective at regulating the amount of light in your home, not to mention ensuring personal privacy – and we offer plenty of them here at Express Nets (http://www.expressnets.co.uk).

Below, we summarise the different types of window blinds that we stock – and why you might want to consider them for your own home.

Roller blinds

Roller blinds definitely look the part, with their simple, clean lines that are flush to the window or wall where they are fitted. They are flexible as well, being appropriate for almost any room of the house. They are durable, easy to operate and good in a business as well as a domestic setting. For absolute control over the light that enters your home, choose one of our blackout roller blinds.

Roman blinds

Consisting of a single piece of material rolled into pleats, Roman blinds offer no shortage of classical style for your property. The name suggests that they were invented in ancient Rome, but it’s likely that they were actually merely popularised there, instead being invented somewhere in the Mediterranean – where they remain immensely popular. The Victorians, with their love of all things neoclassical, brought them back into the western world.

Venetian blinds

With their characteristic easily adjustable slats, Venetian blinds are a familiar sight in the nation’s offices, but they are also popular in domestic settings – particularly those at the more chic end of the scale. PVC Venetian blinds may be most common, but many people fall in love with wooden Venetian blinds, with slats available in a range of finishes.

Vertical blinds

It’s easy to overlook vertical blinds, not least given that with their multiple vertical slats held together by a headrail that can be turned 180 degrees as well as drawn down the centre or to the side, they might not be regarded of as pretty as Venetian blinds, nor as practical as a roller blind. In truth, though, vertical blinds are a very adaptable solution that can cover a large surface area while still looking fantastic. Perhaps you could buy some for your conservatory or patio door?

Alternative blinds

Finally, we also have a section on our site dedicated to those slightly unusual blinds that combine many of the advantages of the aforementioned more familiar variants. In stock right now, for example, is a Swish Sheer Elegance Blind that filters light like a sheer blind, is as easy to operate as a roller blind and has the versatility of a Venetian blind. These qualities make it perfect for the sunnier parts of your house.
