Pleated blinds are no longer just used in conservatories they are used in all rooms in the house and come in different colours and fabrics. This is the type of blind that offers the greatest option in turns of how it can be used.
Unlike other blinds they can be operated from the bottom up or free hanging allowing you to block the middle of a window whilst opening the top and bottom.
Combining two different fabrics is also a possibility and known as a night and day blind. This combines a sheer fabric to be used as a privacy setting then also a blackout fabric to be used at night or to prevent any view in or out.
You can also get the Duette style which is a honeycomb construction comprising of 4 layers of fabric. This is a great insulating property and also gives a smoother look as the tensioning cords can be hidden between the skins.
