Where To Best Use No Drill Blinds
No drill blinds are the perfect choice for adding style and functionality to a space without needing any DIY experience or tools. Back in July we took a close look at the different types of no drill blinds available on the market but today, we’re going to showcase the best places you can fit no drill blinds and which are the best choice for any given space in your home.
No drill blinds for living rooms
Living rooms are spaces where we relax, spend quality time with loved ones and enjoy our downtime. As a result, finding the right blind is extremely important.
Fortuitously there is a wide selection of no drill blinds that are ideal for living rooms. As we’ve already seen, Perfect Fit or Designer No Drill roller blinds provide the freedom to enjoy roller blinds in almost any window but with specialist materials available including blackout fabrics, they’re an even greater choice. That said, one of the best no drill choices for living rooms are Perfect Fit pleated blinds. In our collection of Perfect Fit pleated blinds you can select from stylish thermal fabrics which keep a room cosy and comfortable. By forming a thermal barrier between your space and the cold, you can keep warmer this winter. What’s more, the same characteristics will reduce the power of the sun’s heat, helping you stay cool in the summer.
For enjoying the pinnacle of style, you can even consider adding no drill shutters to your living room windows. These effortlessly chic shutters are ideal for a range of popular styles from Cottagecore to Coastal Chic.
No drill blinds for bedrooms
Like bathrooms, bedrooms have specific needs which can be met by no drill blinds. With light pollution being a leading cause of poor sleep for millions around the world, effectively blocking out the light is extremely important.
Blackout blinds are the perfect solution for bedrooms, especially Perfect Fit blinds which reduce light bleed around the blind to an absolute minimum. What’s more, you can enjoy blackout functionality in many of the no drill styles available including roller blinds, Day & Night blinds and pleated blinds.
If blackout isn’t the main concern for your bedroom, you could instead consider thermal blinds to keep your sleeping space toasty and warm.
Beyond the light and heat benefits of Perfect Fit blinds, there are also safety benefits for children’s bedrooms. Perfect Fit blinds are hand operated without the need for cords or chains which removes potential hazards for children and pets. For Perfect Fit Venetian blinds and wooden blinds, they only require a wand for operation making them equally safe for little ones.
What are no drill blinds?
As a quick recap, no drill blinds and shutters are a hassle free way of adding style and privacy to your home. At Blinds Direct you can choose from a diverse selection of no drill blinds from roller blinds and Venetian blinds to shutters and pleated blinds.
Each of these styles is available in our range of easy to fit Perfect Fit blinds which are a practical and slim-line solution for uPVC windows and doors. In addition, lovers of roller blinds can also select Designer No Drill headers. This upgrade features discreet hinges at either end which unfold to apply pressure against the recess wall and firmly hold the blind in place. You can learn all about the different styles of no drill blinds in our Introduction To No Drill Shutters And Blinds blog.
Why are no drill blinds useful?
The first reason why no drill blinds are so useful is the fact they’re so easy to fit. There is no need for drills, screws or DIY know-how so if you’re not confident in fitting your own blinds or shutters, you needn’t fear, there are equally beautiful alternatives!
Moreover, no drill blinds are a great choice for several more specific reasons. In England alone, as of 2022 – 2023 – the rented sectors make up 35% of households and with many landlords refusing permission for blinds being drilled into walls or recesses, no drill blinds offer renters the flexibility and freedom to make the space their own without breaking any rules.
Moreover, if you live – or work – in a listed building, there may be restrictions surrounding windows and the work you are allowed to undertake. Some listed buildings feature a “past-fashion uPVC design” that resembles traditional wood and as a result can benefit from Perfect Fit blinds. However, if the property has no uPVC, the grip fit features of Designer No Drill blinds will allow you to fit quality blinds to the windows without damaging the fabric of the building.
No drill blinds for bathrooms
When it comes to bathrooms, blinds can often be a tricky choice. With windows being regularly opened and closed to let out excess moisture after a hot shower or bath, traditional blinds can often get in the way.
With Perfect Fit blinds however the blind moves with the window because it’s fitted within the uPVC frame. As a result, no functionality is lost at the window.
The second issue facing bathroom blinds is how moisture can affect the material used to make it. Luckily no drill blinds have the answer here too. Perfect Fit Venetian blinds provide the ideal mixture of light control and privacy – which are both very important for bathrooms. What’s more, they feature water-resistant and wipe clean properties which is ideal for moisture rich spaces. Our Perfect Fit and Designer No Drill roller blinds are also available in specialist moisture proof fabrics.
No drill blinds for conservatories
For decades, uPVC has remained a very popular choice for conservatories. As a result, almost no other blinds are as great a choice for conservatories as Perfect Fit blinds.
Whether you want to reduce light, keep the space cooler in summer and warmer in winter, or just improve the levels of privacy, Perfect Fit blinds and shutters will offer you exactly what you need. Since many people use conservatoires to reconnect with nature, you can also have a lot of fun using different materials, colours and textures in your conservatory. Our range of Perfect Fit wooden blinds for example are made using sustainably sourced real wood and will add an organic finish to any conservatory. What’s more, we have a fabulous array of no drill roller blinds featuring stylish floral patterns that will elegantly enrich any conservatory.
No drill blinds are ideal for almost any room in your home. Whether you’re looking to fit Designer No Drill roller blinds to the windows of your listed home, or simply want to clip a quality Perfect Fit Venetian blind to your bathroom window, we’ll have the right choice for you.
