What Are Vertical Blinds?
Vertical blinds are made using individual vertical fabric blades that hang from a track above the window or doorway. The blades can be rotated to control privacy and natural light or drawn to one side when access through a sliding door is required.
They are a practical choice for larger windows and sliding doors because they can cover wide openings without becoming difficult to operate.
At Sasco Screens & Blinds, our vertical blinds are measured to suit your individual window or doorway and professionally installed for a neat and reliable finish.
Benefits of Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds provide straightforward control over privacy, sunlight and access through larger openings.
Ideal for Sliding Doors
The blades can be drawn to the side, allowing easy access through sliding doors and other frequently used openings.
Flexible Light Control
The vertical blades can be rotated to let more light into the room, soften direct sunlight or provide stronger coverage.
Practical Privacy
When the blades are fully closed, vertical blinds provide privacy for bedrooms, living areas, offices and street-facing windows.
Suitable for Wide Windows
Vertical blinds can cover larger windows and wider openings while remaining simple to operate.
Different Colours Available
Choose from a range of fabric colours and finishes to complement your flooring, walls, furniture and existing interior style.
Practical Everyday Use
Vertical blinds are a straightforward window furnishing option for homes, offices and rental properties.
Where Can Vertical Blinds Be Used?
- Sliding doors: The blades can be moved aside to allow convenient access through the doorway.
- Living areas: Provides adjustable privacy and light control across larger windows.
- Bedrooms: Suitable for wide bedroom windows where stronger privacy is needed.
- Home offices: The blades can be adjusted to help manage direct sunlight and screen glare.
- Rental properties: A practical window covering suited to everyday use.
- Commercial spaces: Suitable for offices, meeting rooms and other larger window areas.
Do Vertical Blinds Completely Block Out Light?
Vertical blinds can provide strong light control when the blades are closed. However, small gaps may remain between the individual blades or around the edges of the blind.
They are a practical option for privacy and everyday light control, but customers wanting a darker room may prefer a blockout roller blind or another blockout window furnishing.
How Do Vertical Blinds Work?
Vertical blinds provide two different types of movement. The blades can rotate to adjust privacy and light, and the entire blind can be drawn across the track to open or close the window covering.
Rotate the Blades
Tilt the vertical blades to let in more natural light, reduce glare or create stronger privacy.
Draw the Blind Aside
Move the blades along the track when you want the window or sliding doorway fully open.
Vertical Blinds or Roller Blinds?
The right option depends on the size of the opening, how frequently the doorway is used and the type of light control you prefer.
Vertical Blinds
A practical choice for sliding doors, wide windows and openings where you want adjustable blades and easy doorway access.
Roller Blinds
A clean and compact option for individual windows where privacy, blockout performance or sunscreen coverage is the main priority.
