Every homeowner has, at one point or another, been faced with a “this or that” decorating decision. In the case of window furnishings, there are many options to choose from. This can feel especially overwhelming since your windows might be, besides your furniture, the most visibly obvious fixture in your living areas. A choice some homeowners might not consider is aluminum blinds.

Why you should consider aluminum blinds?
There are a few reasons why this particular option might be right for your home. The first is that this type of window covering is resistant to moisture. If you live in a particularly humid house, this can be a way to minimize mildew.
They’re also lightweight yet precision cut. The material itself makes them resistant to traditional wear and tear. They’re more durable and can fit in a variety of window sizes using various installation techniques that we’ve mastered over the years.
Finally, aluminum blinds are a sleek aesthetic choice. They bring a unique, classy experience to your home that stands out from other materials.

Do they have advantages over other types of window furnishings?
We’ve already mentioned a few of the advantages of this style of blinds, but wanted to unpack those in more detail. First, let’s look at moisture in the home. As everyone knows, water and building materials don’t mix. Damp, dark places often lead to mold growth which can cause not only structural problems but health issues as well. In certain areas of your home, or if the structure is older, you may already have problems with excessive moisture build-up. Aluminum blinds can withstand problems like this, making them a safe alternative for some homeowners.
They’re also a structurally sound decision. Raise your hand if, as a kid, your parents had a broken blind or two from your activities around the home. Whether errant missiles fired from a spring-loaded toy or pulling the blinds up too quick, this material can withstand the typical wear and tear of the American family. Better yet, they can also deal with your four-legged friends sticking their noses around them as well.
Finally, they’re lightweight alternatives. Some homes don’t have the most optimal installation options. We can help you navigate that problem in general. However, one consideration is the low-weight impact aluminum blinds bring to a window frame.
Are they less sturdy than other styles of blinds?
In a word, no. Aluminum blinds are a very sturdy alternative for the modern home.
Where are some ideal places in your home for aluminum blinds?
As the region’s experts in all things windows, we’ve helped many customers optimize their living spaces with our furnishings. With this type of blinds specifically, they’re great for areas such as your bathroom or kitchen. Both of these are prone to higher levels of moisture.
But this isn’t to say they can’t work in places such as bedrooms, dining areas, or your living room either. Functionally, our aluminum blind choices can work in just about any area of your home — whether moisture is a secondary concern or not. It’s all about ensuring the aesthetic fits in with your home in the way you’re envisioning it.
