Some windows are easy. As soon as you see them, you know immediately how you’re going to decorate them. It’s almost like they can speak to you, and they whisper something along the lines of, “I’d look good in Luminette shades”. Then there are windows that – if they had a voice – would be speaking Swahili backwards. They’re the windows that are awkwardly situated within the room and have unusual dimensions, making them seemingly impossible to decorate with the typical treatments. Luckily, we here at Affordable Blinds go above and beyond the typical options. Our custom-built blinds, shades, and shutters can be tailored to fit any window.
When it comes to windows, size does matter. A huge bay window that spans floor to ceiling is a stunning accent to any room. It affords you a breathtaking view of your property and allows a massive amount of sunlight into your spaces. Its sheer size is reason enough for it to pose a challenge to your interior decoration skills. But what it does for the room also makes it difficult to treat. You need something that fits its dimensions without sacrificing on visibility or sunlight.
An incredibly small window, on the other hand, poses an entirely different set of challenges. Its diminutive size can make ready-to-install treatments a nightmare to mount on your own. The panels of the average blind or shutter will be too large for these undersized portholes and sidelights, yet you can’t allow them to go uncovered if you want your privacy.
Of course, there is also shape and positioning you have to worry about. Those that stray from the typical square or rectangular shapes will need special attention. Palladian (or arched) windows, anything with angles or peaks, and sliding doors pose unique problems that the average treatment can’t solve. Meanwhile, windows that are in hard-to-reach areas need motorized or remote controlled blinds, shutters, or shades.
There are a lot of things that can go wrong when you’re attempting to decorate unusual windows. But we’ve been in the business for a while, and we’ve encountered it all. We create custom-built treatments for any window, regardless of its size, shape, or positioning, and our installation professionals will take the time to ensure they’re mounted properly for safety and functionality.
