What Blinds are Best for Bedrooms?

Of all the rooms in the home, the bedroom is probably the one where we prize privacy and comfort the most. However, this can be impacted significantly by where your bedroom windows are facing. Does your bedroom look out onto a busy street or sit directly opposite your neighbours’ bedroom? Perhaps the orientation of the room means too much—or too little—natural light gets in.

This is why choosing the right bedroom blinds is so important.

With this in mind, if you’re considering installing new blinds into any of the bedrooms in your house, check out our list below to find out some of the best options.

Blackout Blinds

If you find yourself being woken up earlier than you’d like in the morning as a result of too much daylight spilling into the room, then blackout blinds are probably the ideal solution. This problem can be even worse if your bedroom is east-facing or in the summer when the sunrise is at its earliest. Alternatively, the problem might be that your bedroom is street facing and gets illuminated by streetlights.

Blackout blinds can provide almost total darkness for your bedroom when you need it, either to block out that early morning sunshine, or ambient light from the street keeping you awake at night.

Although even the best blackout blinds won’t eliminate 100% of external light, our premium selection of blackout roller blinds not only keep your bedroom dark at all times of the day, but they also provide a touch of modern style to the space.

Vision Day and Night Blinds

For an even greater level of control over the amount of sunlight entering your bedroom, Vision Day and Night blinds—also known as twist or multishade blinds—are a relatively new innovation that allows the perfect balance between privacy and natural light.

These blinds are made out of translucent and opaque material and are much more versatile than traditional roller blinds, while the contemporary design makes them a welcome addition to any stylish bedroom design.

Perfect Fit INTU Blinds

If you’re worried that installing blinds in your bedroom will impact the design aesthetic or damage your existing windows and walls, then INTU Perfect Fit blinds are the ideal choice.

Whether you’re looking for a roller, pleated or venetian blind style, INTU Perfect fit blinds provide clean lines along with all the ease-of-use and child safety benefits you’d expect to find with other blinds, but without the gaps that can either look unsightly or let light in.

Printed Blinds

Many people prefer blinds over curtains for their bedroom because of their functionality, but style is important too, and blinds can be used to provide a broad canvas for a wide range of fantastic designs.

Here at Allegro Blinds, our custom printed blinds can add a unique sense of style to your bedroom, combining contemporary colours, individualism and flair to provide a truly unique aesthetic.

What’s more, our printed roller blinds offer all the practicality and functionality you’d expect from our blinds, while remaining affordable and tailored to your specific requirements.

One of the most popular choices for bedroom blinds is undoubtedly Roman blinds, and it’s easy to see why. Fitted Roman blinds are an elegant and practical solution for your bedroom, allowing you to adjust how much light you let in, while they suit so many different styles of room.

We’re able to create Roman blinds made-to-measure, from a huge range of beautiful fabrics, colours and patterns, while still guaranteeing the functionality and durability you’re looking for.

Velux Roof Window Blinds

If your bedroom is located in an attic space you might be lucky enough to have a skylight, a feature that is becoming a hugely popular addition to homes for the amount of light they allow into a room, and because of the contemporary aesthetic they can offer.

However, if your bedroom does have Velux windows, you’re going to need specialist Velux Roof Window blinds.

At Allegro we provide a wide range of made-to-measure blinds that are perfect for skylights, including roller blinds and venetian blinds, that offer optimal light control, energy efficiency and a great aesthetic. We can even provide blackout blinds for Velux windows that keep out as much light as possible.

Fitted Wooden Blinds

If you’re looking for a more minimalist or vintage style in your bedroom, fitted wooden blinds make for a surprisingly versatile option.

Wood fitted blinds are able to provide a more natural aesthetic to a bedroom compared to some of the more modern solutions, while still providing the light control you need during the summer and insulation you need in the winter.
