Shades and Blinds for Commercial Spaces

Are you better off with blinds, or are window shades the smarter choice for window coverings in your business or home? Many people don’t even know there’s a difference! Direct Shop Fronts can explain everything to help you decide.

Window blinds are structured window treatments featuring slats that can be tilted open or closed, and the blind itself can be raised or lowered. They typically come in materials such as wood, faux wood, aluminium, plastic, and sometimes fabric. They also can be in the vertical or horizontal format.

Window shades are a solid single window covering made from softer textiles and can just be raised or lowered. Popular shade styles include cellular shades, roman shades, and roller shades.

Blinds and window shades will add beauty to your décor in addition to providing light control, privacy, and insulation. Schedule a free consultation with Direct Shop Fronts for design advice and product selection.

The Benefits of Window Shades and Blinds

When it comes to window coverings, both shades and blinds have a number of beneficial uses and features.

Adjustable Light Control

Control how much light you want to enter the room, any time of day. Blinds and shades can easily be adjusted to let in more or less light.

Privacy

When fully closed, window coverings will provide excellent privacy.

Insulation

Insulate your rooms with window coverings that have high insulation properties. You can save energy and reduce electric bills.

Infinite Design Choices

The sky is the limit when it comes to the different styles and looks of window coverings, with endless possibilities for materials and fabrics to choose from.

Costs

Window coverings come in a wide range of budget-friendly options as well as luxury high-end window treatments.
