Blinds from below or from above? Advantages and disadvantages

Window blinds are not only a decorative element of any interior but also an element that guarantees the privacy of the home. This is why it is worth paying attention to many aspects, including the type of fabric, as well as the way of closing when you choose a roller blind. What are the advantages and disadvantages of roller blinds from below and from above? We suggest.

Difference between the way blinds are drawn

Nowadays, there are many models of window covers on the market that guarantee privacy for householders and also fit in with design trends without disrupting the style of interior decoration. Customers can also choose from a variety of fabrics, which can have a more or less blackout function. This is all in order to obscure their interior from passers-by or neighbors opposite. Roller blinds are also available, which can be fixed in a variety of ways, both no-drill and invasively. Another important aspect to pay attention to is the method of closing. Not only are there roller blinds available on the market from the top, but also blinds that slide from the bottom of the window frame. What exactly does this consist of?

Blinds from below are very popular due to their practicality. They can be fitted to windows of unusual shapes and sizes. They are perfect for shielding you from passers-by when you live on the ground floor in a block of flats, as well as neighbors in high-rise buildings on upper floors. All you have to do is close the fabric from the bottom, while daylight continues to enter from the top. This gives each household member the freedom to regulate the sunlight in the home. There are many fabrics to choose from, but the most popular solution is the pleated blind duo, which is shaped like an accordion. When folded, the pleated blind takes up very little space, and the entire daily operation is not difficult.

Advantages and disadvantages of top and bottom roller blinds

In fact, the advantages and disadvantages of a particular solution depending on which type of top or bottom blind you decide on. For example, the traditional free-hanging fabric can make it difficult to access the handle, which is particularly uncomfortable for windows over a kitchen worktop or bedroom bed. Roller blinds from above without an attached cassette can also cause disorder when they come into contact with objects placed on the windowsill. Whichever way you decide on, think about cassette-mounted products (such as a cassette-mounted day-night blind), which is more practical. Also, if you live on the ground floor and only want to cover part of the window, roller blinds from above will not be practical here. The fabric will cover the whole area, thus restricting access to daylight. In this situation, it is better to opt for roller blinds from below. These can also be extremely useful for balcony doors. Roller blinds from below have a very easy-to-operate mechanism, and if you opt for a sturdy material, it will be a solution for many years.
