Technical Data
Indoor blinds function as adjustable window coverings mounted inside residential properties. Product categories differ in construction and operation. Roller blinds roll fabric around a tube with chain or motor control. Venetian blinds tilt horizontal slats and raise via cord systems. Vertical blinds rotate hanging slats and draw sideways for wide spans. Honeycomb blinds compress cellular fabric sections providing thermal insulation. Each type suits different window configurations and functional requirements based on operational mechanism and material characteristics.
Light control operates through two material categories. Blockout fabrics prevent light transmission completely, suited to bedrooms and spaces requiring darkness. Sheer fabrics filter incoming light while maintaining daytime privacy, suited to living areas. Material selection affects heat gain, UV protection, and visibility characteristics. Fabric performance varies by weave density, colour, and backing construction. Room orientation and window exposure influence appropriate material specification for optimal light management and energy efficiency.
Operating mechanisms divide into manual and motorized systems. Manual operation uses continuous loop chains or standard pull cords depending on blind type. Motorized operation provides remote control, smartphone operation, or home automation integration. Motor suitability depends on blind size, weight, and power access requirements. Control method selection considers window height, operational frequency, and user preferences. Motorized systems eliminate cords for child safety and accessibility benefits. Automation systems enable smart home integration for indoor blinds. Shutter systems provide alternative window treatment solutions for specific applications.
Coastal environments affect material performance and operational longevity. Garden Route properties experience elevated humidity and salt air exposure affecting component durability. Fabric materials, metal components, and operating mechanisms respond differently to moisture conditions. Bathrooms and kitchens present additional humidity challenges requiring moisture-resistant specifications. Material performance in high-humidity environments varies by product construction and manufacturer rating. Coastal installations in areas like Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, and George require consideration of salt corrosion resistance and humidity tolerance.
Window configuration determines product compatibility and installation methodology. Installation requires adequate mounting surface and appropriate reveal dimensions. Window width, height, and reveal depth affect product selection and mounting approach. Wide openings may require multiple units or specific product types designed for broader spans. Specialty window shapes including arches, angles, and bays require custom configurations or adapted installation methods. Reveal depth and mounting surface condition influence installation feasibility and bracket selection.
Product selection involves assessing room function, privacy requirements, light control needs, and installation conditions. Standard window configurations with common dimensions suit pre-configured products available for online ordering with measurement guides. Custom dimensions, specialty window shapes, architectural integration requirements, and coastal environmental factors benefit from professional measurement and specification consultation. Custom Blinds provides standard products for online purchase and consultation services for custom projects throughout the Garden Route including properties in Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, and George. Product choice varies by room function, privacy requirements, and material performance, making correct specification important for long-term operational satisfaction and durability. Custom Blinds is a Hunter Douglas authorized dealer and Somfy accredited installer, serving the Garden Route since 2010.
