What is the difference between permanent and temporary window coverings? If you have windows that are letting in too much light , allow cold air into your living space or make your home feel a bit exposed, then window coverings can give you control of your home again. You can use them to stop prying eyes looking into your living space, to act as an additional layer of insulation, and to shut the world out when you need it. However, there’s a difference between permanent and temporary window coverings. 

When you choose temporary window coverings, you might not get the same quality as permanent ones. It’s because these window coverings aren’t designed to last as long or perform as well, and you’ll end up having to deal with low quality when you pay a lower price. On the other hand, permanent window coverings are a brilliant investment for your home. You’ll get a durable option that performs for decades and even helps you save money over time.

At Appeal Home Shading, we know that permanent window coverings are better than temporary window coverings. And, when you choose our permanent options, you can choose from a wide range of blinds and shutters for your home. Our designs come made-to-measure, can be installed across the UK, and we have a wide range of styles to select from and customise to suit you.

Permanent or Temporary Window Coverings?

Better Performance

Permanent window coverings offer better performance than temporary window coverings for your home. While temporary designs use quite cheap fabric and materials, as the design doesn’t need to last, Appeal’s permanent options are much more durable. Our blinds and shutters have materials like timber and hard-wearing fabrics to ensure they stand the test of time. Not only that, they can make a bigger impact on the performance of your home in several ways.

Our permanent window coverings beat temporary window coverings on efficiency, for example. Because of this, you can make your home warmer during the winter months, potentially helping you save money on energy bills. Permanent window coverings also offer better sound insulation, and they won’t wear down as easily when exposed to poor weather. Because of this, these window coverings don’t need any maintenance at all.

Longer Lasting

Permanent window coverings also last a lot longer than temporary window coverings. It’s because Appeal’s permanent window coverings are built to stand the test of time, with hard-wearing materials that can go the distance. For example, the fabric we use in our blinds can deal with intense sunlight and UV rays without fading or discolouration. And, throughout our range of shutters, we use a more resilient wood to make them last longer than traditional designs.

While temporary window coverings wear down after a few years, our permanent window coverings are sure to last for decades. And, with remote control operation available, there’s less chance of your window coverings folding, creasing, or losing their shape. As a result, your new addition will still look its best long into the future, and it’ll make your living space stand out, too. Permanent window coverings are the way to go if you want to make the biggest impact on your home.

Made-to-Measure

Finally, Appeal’s permanent window coverings are made-to-measure, whereas most temporary window coverings aren’t. Because of this, you can be sure that your new blinds and shutters will cover the full aperture of any window and door. Your new system will fit the design perfectly, and you’ll get better insulation against cold air with a made-to-measure installation.

As a result, you can benefit from our made-to-measure blinds in several ways. You can make your home more private, as people outside won’t be able to see through your windows or doors whatsoever. And, when you want to go to sleep, some of our permanent window coverings act as blackout blinds that allow you to shut the light out of any room in your home.
