How do you choose roller blinds?
If you have your heart set on the simple elegance of a roller blind, you may find yourself wondering how to work through the different options. Colour is certainly one of the first things people think about - and we’ll come onto that subject next - but here are several other key factors to think about that will help you narrow down your choices:Size
Windows come in different sizes even within the same home, so it’s important to consider how a roller blind will look, whether in a small bathroom window or a large bay window. Thankfully, at Your Blinds Direct, we offer made-to-measure roller blinds, so you know you can get the perfect fit for your aperture.Fabrics
Fabrics offer you a sensory consideration; imagine what kind of feel you want the blind to have. On top of this, there is a practical question of whether you want blackout or dim-out fabrics for a bedroom or entertainment space or something more translucent that will allow light to filter through.Style
Roller blinds are more than just a cover for your window, their style can impact your whole decor, so consider what you want to achieve. Opt for a clean, fresh and contemporary space with our Banlight Duo FR Bright White roller blind, or a homely, cosy feeling that comes with a pattern or texture, such as with our Wild Garden Cornflower roller blind. Spots, stripes and geometrics can all help to meet your style goals.Features
While chain operation comes as standard, you may wish to elevate the sense of luxury in your home with motorised roller blinds. We offer a range of affordable solutions from the Louvolite range, compatible with their home hub.Roller Blind Colours
There’s no hiding from the fact that colour is going to play a huge part in your choice of roller blinds. You can achieve a lot through the psychology of colour alone, not to mention that some people simply have favoured tones that they enjoy. To help you find the right colour roller blind for the room you’re looking to style, we’ve got a handy filter in our roller blind category along the left-hand side of the page. So whether you want a bold, yellow burst of colour, the regal opulence of purple tones or an understated charcoal grey, it’s never been easier to find what you need in our range — just click the colour or colours of your choosing and the options will appear.Should my roller blinds be the same colour as my walls?

How to choose roller blinds for kitchens and bathrooms
Because kitchens and bathrooms are naturally more humid environments with water sources, you need to find a roller blind that is moisture-resistant, such as our Sailboat Blackout Blue option. You can view blinds that are perfect for bathrooms and kitchens in the respective category pages we’ve created. While you might be able to get away with roller blinds that aren’t moisture-resistant if the window is away from water sources and the room is well-ventilated, it’s still recommended.How to choose roller blinds for bedrooms and living rooms
