Transform Your Space with Stylish Horizontal Blinds

Horizontal blinds are incredibly versatile. With such a wide range of colours, styles, and designs to choose from, they effortlessly complement any type of interior décor. Embrace the contemporary appeal of horizontal faux wood blinds, a practical, cost-effective and stylish choice for kitchens and bathrooms or indulge in the natural beauty of horizontal wooden blinds for a touch of timeless, eco-friendly luxury. For modern spaces, our chic collection of aluminium Venetian blinds offers sleek lines and precise light control with their adjustable slats.

Horizontal blinds for windows are where functionality meets design. They go beyond style and aesthetics and provide functional benefits for your home or office. Horizontal blackout blinds are perfect for bedrooms, media rooms, and nurseries, allowing you to create a serene, shaded sanctuary. Choose horizontal roller blinds for a minimalist look and effortless operation in a wide range of plain, patterned, and textured designs. Horizontal day and night blinds allow you to enjoy the best of both worlds. You can seamlessly transition from soft, diffused light to complete privacy and being lightweight, they’re ideally suited to wide windows and patio doors.

What are the Benefits of Horizontal Blinds?

Enhanced Light Control: Horizontal blinds give you effortless control over the amount of light and shade in your room, allowing you to create the perfect ambience or block out light completely.
Built to Last: Each blind is constructed using high-quality materials and components to ensure long-lasting performance and ease of use.
Privacy: Enjoy enhanced privacy control. Fully close the blinds for total privacy or partially open them to let in light while still maintaining privacy.
Versatile Style: Available in a wide range of colours, designs and materials, including on-trend tones of white, grey and black, there is a horizontal blind to suit any style of interior design and enhance the room's décor.
Energy-Efficient: Horizontal blinds provide an additional layer of insulation at the windows, helping to regulate the temperature in your home all year round. They reduce heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter, leading to savings on energy bills.
Easy Maintenance: Designed to be easy to clean and low maintenance, they will look their best for many years with just a quick dusting as part of your regular cleaning routine.
Furniture Protection: They help protect your furniture and furnishings from harmful UV rays, reducing the likelihood of fading.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better, vertical or horizontal blinds?

Vertical or horizontal blinds—which is best? It all depends on your specific needs and the look you prefer. Both types of blinds excel at controlling light and privacy, and both provide insulation at the windows. Vertical blinds are ideal for larger windows and patio doors, while horizontal blinds are available in a wider range of styles and designs. So, it’s more or less a tie in terms of functionality, which leaves the type of appearance you like best.

What are horizontal blinds called?

Horizontal blinds are generally known as Venetian blinds and come in various materials, such as real wood, faux wood, and aluminium, each offering a unique look, appeal, and benefits. Whilst hanging horizontally, roller blinds and day and night blinds are generally considered distinct categories due to their individual look and operation, although they can be loosely referred to as horizontal blinds.

Which blinds are cheaper vertical or horizontal?

This will largely depend on factors like the size of your blind and the material and options you choose. Generally, made-to-measure vertical blinds are cheaper than horizontal blinds such as real wood Venetian blinds, aluminium Venetian blinds and around the same price as faux wood Venetian blinds. Keep in mind that this information is based on average prices, and the actual cost can vary.

Can you see through horizontal blinds?

No, you cannot see through horizontal blinds when they’re fully closed, assuming they’re correctly fitted and the right size for the window. Horizontal Venetian blinds are made up of opaque slats that prevent anyone from seeing inside. If privacy is a concern, it’s a good idea to make sure the slats are tilted downwards to further minimise visibility from the outside.

Ideas & Inspiration

We've Got Thousands Of 5-Star Customer Reviews

We ordered 5 roller blinds which arrived promptly, were well made and easy to fit. Good value for money. One blind had been made up with the pull cord on the opposite side to what we wanted but the aftersales service on the phone was very helpful and said they could change it if we wanted. However, it was a simple job to change it ourselves after he told us how to do it - Thanks for the tips which saved time and messing about with replacements. This is the second time we have used English Blinds - we always shop where we are well looked after!

I ordered my Roman blind online. Very easy to do. The blinds were very well packaged and arrived on the day stated. Very pleased with the fabric and overall quality of the blind. I would highly recommend English Blinds and would definitely use them again.

Fantastic customer care, really helpful with samples and product information. Really friendly staff.

Great service, easy-to-order process and very nice product

Keep coming back to English Blinds for all our window needs, quality materials and workmanship all the time. They were very happy to assist during the lockdown, communication was excellent and sent me different brackets after I realised the wrong ones were ordered by me - also free of charge. My son loves his new blinds so much that he asked me whether he could take them with him when he moves out!
