Blinds

Blinds are one of the most versatile window treatments available. They afford you the most incredible flexibility of light control and privacy, all while blending seamlessly into any existing decor style. Investing in your home’s appearance is always in style, and Gotcha Covered Seeview Blinds and Shutters carries top-quality Hunter Douglas window blinds to deliver strength, durability, and an outstanding aesthetic.

One of the perks of blinds is that they’re available in several materials and orientations. Horizontal or vertical? Wood, faux wood, or aluminum? Which is the best choice for your home? We’re here to share the benefits of each so you can make an informed choice for your windows.

Wood Blinds

Most customers who are choosing custom blinds opt for the hardwood variety. Wood blinds effortlessly add warmth and charm to a room without making too bold of a statement and allowing for the texture of natural materials. When you want to adjust the amount of light or ventilation, simply tilt the slats to the desired angle. Adjustable slats also allow you to enjoy ample view-through without raising your blinds. Choose from a wide selection of solid colors and stains and adorn your blinds with decorative tapes for a little extra flair. Care for your blinds by wiping them with a soft, dry cloth and conditioning them with lemon oil or a quality wood polish.

Faux Wood Blinds

Horizontal blinds are also known as Venetian blinds, and faux wood blinds are ideal for areas of your home where you want the appearance of hardwood but the practical functionality of manufactured material. Authentic wood is gorgeous but is vulnerable to damage from moisture, humidity, and high temperatures. EverWood® Alternative Wood Blinds allow you to experience the character of wood in your bathroom, kitchen, or sunroom with the assurance that your investment won’t peel, chip, fade, or crack. Faux wood blinds are available in many colors and realistic stain-like finishes. Eliminate pesky light gaps from route holes with the exclusive de-Light feature. Optional ornamental tapes can also be used for this purpose.

Aluminum Blinds

Aluminum blinds are a fantastic choice when you want an aesthetic that’s bolder than that of wood or faux wood. Modern Precious Metal® blinds offer a sleek, modern appearance and durability ideal for busy households. Slat widths range from ½” to 2 ½ “ to accommodate any size window. Slimmer slats are well suited to smaller windows and homes with more traditional decor. If you have a stunning view, consider the MagnaView™ feature that nests vanes together to deliver twice the view-through of other aluminum blinds. Customers’ lives today are busier than ever before and taking extra time to clean your blinds is not something to look forward to. Metal blinds attract less dust than other materials so you can spend your time doing things you enjoy instead of caring for your venetian blinds. You can also count on the slats to not bend or break easily even with mild jostling from excited kids and pets.

Vertical Blinds

Finding the right window covering for sliding glass doors and particularly large windows can be tricky. Vertical blinds make it much easier. The most difficult part is choosing the ones you love most. Since vertical blinds open to the side you can have a much larger set without your blinds being cumbersome to open and close. We love that the vanes of vertical blinds rotate 180 degrees, giving you more freedom to control the sunlight and your privacy. Like other window blinds, vertical blinds are available in several materials. You can go with easy care vinyl, fabric, and even sheer vanes. Care for your blinds by using your vacuum’s brush attachment on low suction, and be sure not to forget the track. It can become clogged with dust and keep your blinds from operating smoothly. Every product from Hunter Douglas is made to last, but what do you do if your blinds get damaged? If you have horizontal blinds your option is limited to replacing the whole set. Some vertical blinds, on the other hand, have individually hung vanes so you can simply swap out the damaged component for a new one. It doesn’t get much easier.
