How to Choose the Best Blinds for a Bathroom

grey vertical blinds for bathroom windows

Choosing the best blinds for your bathroom can seem difficult, which is why we’ve put together a list of things to consider before you buy.

Type of Fabric

The first thing you need to think about is the level of waterproofing and moisture resistance you need. If your bathroom is prone to condensation or has a lot of steam, you’ll need to choose blinds that can withstand these conditions. Our Roller blinds and vertical blinds for bathrooms are both great choices for this reason as they’re made from waterproof materials. Faux wood blinds are also a good option as they’re manufactured from moisture resistant PVC.

Privacy

Another thing to consider is the level of privacy you need. If you have a window in your bathroom that faces a busy street or your neighbour’s house, you’ll want to choose blinds that offers complete privacy. Blackout blinds are a fantastic choice for this reason as they allow you to completely cover your window when closed.

Light Control

The last thing to think about is how much light control you need. If you like to take baths in the evening or get ready for work in the morning, you’ll want to choose blinds that offer you excellent control over the light. Blinds with rotating slats such as vertical blinds or venetian blinds offer great control over both light and privacy as you can simply adjust them throughout the day. If you’re looking for a blind that offers complete blackout, we recommend choosing a blackout roller blind.

Style

Of course, you’ll also want to make sure that your blinds complement the style of your bathroom. At Unbeatable Blinds, we offer a wide range of styles and designs to suit all tastes. From contemporary roller blinds to sleek faux wood and colourful venetian blinds, we’re confident you’ll find the perfect match for your space.
