The home shading market has never been so diverse as it is now. Homeowners now have more options available to them than ever before regarding the way they keep the light out during the day and keep their homes private at night. It used to be that you had curtains or you had blinds. Now, just the mention of one of those options brings up a whole host of designs, styles and fabrics that can be overwhelming at times!

So here at Appeal Home Shading we wanted to focus on and discuss three kinds of blinds that we offer to help you decide which one would be best for your home. Those are the Pleated Blinds, the Venetian Blinds and the Roller Blinds. Each one has its specific benefits; however, none of them is at any particular disadvantage to the other. It is completely up to you which one will suit your house the best. 

Pleated Blinds

First up, Pleated Blinds from Appeal. These blinds have been in our homes for decades now and have become an easily recognisable feature of many houses. Pleated blinds concertinawhen they are not in use providing the unique pleat look when pulled down. Pleated blinds are an excellent shading solution for homeowners looking for maximum coverage of their windows that fold away discreetly when not in use. The folding nature of pleated blinds has also allowed for unique innovations from Appeal Home Shading that provide superior energy-saving potential to the home.

Our Honeycomb Energy Saver Blinds are part of our pleated blind range at Appeal Home Shading. The Honeycomb Energy Saver Blind utilises the folding design of pleated blinds and incorporates a double-layered hexagonal system that is prevalent when the blinds are in use. This unique and innovative design feature gives the Honeycomb Blinds exceptional energy-saving properties. Your home can retain 46% more heat in the winter and reflect 78% of the heat coming from outside during the summer. With these pleated blinds, you can expect lower energy costs and a smaller carbon footprint for your home throughout the year!

Venetian Blinds

Next are the traditional and ever-present Venetian blinds. Venetian blinds operate in two ways. Firstly they are raised and lowered like any other blind system from the top of the window or door. Secondly, the individual slats can be angled to open up the blinds to more light or close them for less. Venetian blinds offer the most customisability of the light entering the home over these three options. Once lowered, the blinds can be used to keep the light out completely or let a little light in to reflect off the floor or ceiling to keep the room full of natural light whilst also ensuring privacy from the outside. At Appeal, we offer our Venetian blinds in two materials, either Aluminium or Timber variants.

Our Aluminium Venetian Blinds provide a smooth and durable shading solution for your windows and doors. They are specifically designed not to scratch the glass when in use and are easily cleaned and maintained throughout the year. The Timber Venetian Blinds give the home a modern feature reminiscent of coastal towns in the summer on warm weather days. Both options are wonderful additions to any home looking to have maximum control over the shading.

Roller Blinds

Finally, the Roller Blind from Appeal Home Shading. The Roller Blind is the on-trend shading solution currently available and provides a simple but effective fabric that covers up the windows and doors of your home. Roller blinds are exceptionally customisable with eco-fabrics, colourful fabrics or even patterned fabrics to provide a splash of personality to the home. Roller blinds also can provide the most protection from the sunlight out of these three options, with blackout blind variants available.

Furthermore, Appeal Home Shading offer the Solar R® Roller Blind. This range is specifically designed to keep the sunlight and the heat out. These roller blinds reflect 74% of the heat they come into contact with, which is the highest available in the UK and exclusive to Appeal! The blinds themselves retract discreetly into a neat cassette to ensure no excess blockage of the views you can receive from your windows. The Roller Blind from Appeal is perfect for the homeowner that wants to customise their home shading into something specific.
