The Benefit of Custom Blinds

When it comes to choosing blinds for your home or office, you may be tempted to go with pre-made options from a big-box store. However, custom-made blinds offer a wide range of benefits that can enhance the look and feel of any space. In this post, we’ll discuss the advantages of custom-made blinds, including perfect fit, enhanced insulation, and improved aesthetics. We’ll also showcase Penn Blinds’ customization options and offer tips on how to measure for custom blinds.

Perfect Fit

One of the most significant benefits of custom-made blinds is the perfect fit they provide. Pre-made blinds are available in standard sizes that may not fit your windows properly, leaving gaps and creating an unattractive look. With custom-made blinds, you can ensure a precise fit that covers the window completely and creates a seamless look. At Penn Blinds, we offer a range of customization options, including size, color, and material, to create the perfect fit for your windows.

Enhanced Insulation

Custom-made blinds also offer enhanced insulation, which can save you money on your energy bills. The right blinds can help regulate the temperature of your room, keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. This means your HVAC system won’t have to work as hard to maintain a comfortable temperature, resulting in lower energy costs. At Penn Blinds, we offer a range of materials that provide enhanced insulation, including cellular and blackout options.

Improved Aesthetics

Custom-made blinds can also improve the aesthetics of your space. With pre-made blinds, you may be limited in terms of style and color options, which can limit your ability to create the look you want. With custom-made blinds, you can choose from a wide range of styles, colors, and materials that match your decor and personal style. This allows you to create a cohesive look that enhances the overall design of your space. At Penn Blinds, we offer a range of customization options to help you achieve the look you want, from luxurious wood and faux wood blinds to elegant fabric options.

Tips for Measuring for Custom Blinds

To ensure a perfect fit for your custom-made blinds, it’s essential to measure your windows accurately. Here are some tips to help you measure your windows correctly:

  • Use a metal tape measure for precise measurements.
  • Measure the width and height of your window frame, taking three measurements for each dimension (top, middle, and bottom for width, left, middle, and right for height).
  • Use the smallest measurement for width and height to ensure a proper fit.
  • Measure in inches for accuracy.

Custom-made blinds offer a wide range of benefits that can enhance the look and feel of any space, including a perfect fit, enhanced insulation, and improved aesthetics. At Penn Blinds, we offer a range of customization options to create the perfect blinds for your windows, from size and color to material and style. Remember to measure your windows accurately to ensure a precise fit and take advantage of the benefits of custom-made blinds.
