Hard window treatments - What to consider

Robert Anderson from Curtain Clean (Hawkes Bay Chem-Dry)

Hard window treatments include roller blinds, shutters, sunscreen blinds, venetian blinds, vertical blinds, and wooden blinds which can be used in conjunction with curtains, swags and tails, top treatments and pelmets.

In this article we will outline the features of hard window treatments and highlight key considerations when dressing your windows.

PLEATED BLINDS:
• Available as a single pleat or in a honeycomb design.
• Stack into a minimal space and come in a wide range of colours as a block-out of semitransparency.
• The honeycomb style is the best type of blind for heat retention because they have an air pocket to trap heat and are therefore energy efficient.

ROLLER BLINDS:
• A fabric blind that comes in a wide range of textures, colours, and opacity.
• Can be controlled by spring operation, a chain, or motorisation.
• Great in contemporary situations where large window have little or no stacking ability and clean, modern lines are required.

I’m looking for a place - preferably rural - to put my wee camper on for up to eighteen months.
I’m a mature woman; very quiet, very tidy, very independent; I have very good references - work, accommodation and character.
I have an older three legged cat who stays close.
Access to bathroom facilities would be a bonus.
I would be more than willing to house sit; babysit (I was a nanny for a few years, have excellent reference), garden.
More than willing to pay ‘rental’.
If you can help, please contact Claire

Thank you.
