Watch out for These Needed Blind Repairs Every day we raise our blinds and say good morning to the world around us. We get so used to it that when they don’t work properly, it comes as a shock. Now, we aren’t all experts in blinds and how they work, so we may not know what repairs they need. However, most of the parts that can break are visible to us, we just have to know what they are so we can fix them. Don’t Let Broken Blinds Get You Down Start by looking at the top or your blinds at the barrel. This is a round drum in which the strings of the blind move around when the string is pulled. After a time, it can become brittle and snap, letting the strings loose causing the blind to hang funny. Another common issue is the lift strings breaking. This can lead to the blinds hanging unevenly and be unable to move. The slats of your blinds also can break very easily. If this happens, it would be smart to call in a professional and have them handle it. They will take care of the strings as well as properly positioning the new slat or slats on the blind. Boca Blinds offers professional blind design and installation for numerous windows. Our experienced staff will work with you to make sure the blinds in your home are installed properly so you can enjoy them.

Vertical Blinds For Your Sunroom To Control The Sunlight
For many of us, the sunroom of our home is where you go to relax and escape even if it is only for a little bit. It’s ideal locations perfect for hiding away but if you don’t have the right blinds on your sliding doors, then your relaxation could end up being not as nice. You could cover your doors and windows with regular blinds that go up and down at the pull of a string. But if you would like more control of your light intake, then vertical blinds might be the perfect fit. Control Your Sunshine With Vertical Blinds The first benefit to vertical blinds is how they can regulate how much sun gets into the room. Many vertical blinds can be opened and closed with a chain attached. You can open them however much you would like in order to light up the room. The vertical blinds can also limit the sun is due to the fact that they turn with a wand. You can rotate to where the sides of the blinds are facing you or to where they go side to side to keep the room darker. This can especially be helpful at night when you would like some privacy from the neighbors you might have. So it doesn’t matter if you are reading or watching a movie in your sunroom, the sun will never be an issue to you with vertical blinds. Boca Blinds offers blind and shutter installation in Boca Raton, Florida and many of its surrounding areas. Let us help customize your room with the perfect blinds so you never want to leave it.

Cellular Shade Advantages
Cellular Shade Advantages Many people know that cellular shades are good for the environment as well as our energy bills. Unfortunately, most aren’t aware of the other advantages like insulation, light blocking and safety that are associated with them as well. Not only are they beneficial to your home, they come in a variety of colors and shapes, so they are great for every home. Cellular shades are great insulators and will keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer, so your home will be more energy efficient. Installing them several inches from the window allows for good circulation and will prevent ice from building up on your windows. In the summer, this insulation can help cut down your air conditioning bills and block the harsh sun rays. Because you are using less energy, you are releasing fewer toxins into the environment. You’ll be saving money and the world. As well as great insulators, cellular shades can come with different grades of light filtration. You can purchase blackout shades that will block out any unwanted light. Or you can purchase translucent shades that will allow the light to enter but still provide privacy. Cellular shades are safer for small children and pets because they won’t get tangled up in cords. The shades look much cleaner without the chords; however you would have to raise them manually, so they would only go as high as you can reach. If you do decide to go with a chord, they are designed to break apart if someone gets stuck in them. They will unsnap so no one gets stuck. There are many options for cellular shades and blinds but no matter your choice, you will conserve energy and reduce your impact on the environment. For more information about cellular shades, please contact Boca Blinds today.
Enhance Your Country Home With Modern Blind Ideas
Enhance your Country Home Finding the right decorations for your country home can be challenging especially when you have multiple windows that vary in style. Here are several practical ideas to bring out the character in your home: Bay Windows Decorating a bay window can be difficult. Try using a blind on each window for an elegant look. For smaller bay windows, use a pretty patterned fabric and for larger windows, try a bold color. Both will provide a great focal point. Window Seat Along with bay windows, window seats can be hard to decorate as well. Using blinds will interfere with the seating area, so blinds are the best choice. Swedish blinds will go well with your country home but they are more decorative than functional. If you’re looking for functional, Roman blinds are the right match, choose a nice fabric and you’re good to go. A Privacy Sash To allow maximum light through a window but keep your privacy is a problem for every home owner. One option to solve this problem would be to use a panel blind on the bottom half of the sash to keep the sun shining in while keeping the neighbors out. Kitchen & Bath As one of the most used rooms in the house, your kitchen décor and window treatments must be durable to stand up against heat, steam and messes. A roller blind is a good way to avoid splashes but can still give shade from the sun. A floral fabric will pair perfectly with your country home. Adding a fun fabric to the bathroom will add character to your home. Like the kitchen, choose a washable and water- resistant fabric. If you would like to add a new look to your country home, but aren’t sure what style would best fit your window treatments, please contact Boca Blinds.

Finding The Right Blinds For Your Bedroom
Finding the Right Blinds for your Bedroom In most homes, a sun room is where you and your family go to if they’re looking to relax and as the name states, take in the sun’s rays. So when it comes to putting this area together, every decision you make about it is critical. You want to make sure every aspect of it is perfect so you can go and escape to it any time you want and not feel as if the furniture or the blinds aren’t right. Put the Best Blinds In When it comes to the blinds in the room you want them to not only look the best, but not block out to much sunlight which would ultimately defeat the purpose of the room. A rolling blind would be good for the regular windows as they would be very easy to use and they wouldn’t bring the light in the room down due to the slight opacity of them. If there is a sliding screen door in the room, installing sliding side panels would work best. Similar to the rolling blind, these are very easy to operate and be a nice touch to any sun room. Now these aren’t the easiest blinds to install so using a professional would be perfect as many offer onsite repairs in case of something malfunctioning. Boca Blinds offers professional blind and shutter installation and repair services for all types of windows. For more information on our services as well as our large selection of blinds and shutters, please feel free to contact us today!

Silhouette shades are perfect for early risers, because they give you 100% privacy while still letting that glorious morning sunshine stream in.

Fabric shades give you a lot more light than heavier materials, like wood, and are easily adjustable while still offering you the privacy you need.
