Alternatives to See-Through Shades and Blinds

In this blog entry, the L.A. shade and blind installation team here at Los Angeles Shades and Blinds will detail some fantastic light control alternatives to see-through curtains and blinds.

Alternatives to Transparent Window Treatments

There’s a few treatments that don’t provide ideal privacy. These are usually made of lightweight, thin, and sheer fabrics. They can be very aesthetically pleasing, but can also allow anyone who passes by to look inside your window. If you want to keep a lightness to your window treatments but want the option to increase privacy consider the following window treatments:

Blinds

Thai popular window treatment comes in a wide variety of materials like fabric, vinyl, wood, and even aluminum. They have adjustable visibility, and when properly installed and fit, can provide full privacy.

Shades

These provide a soft and clean appearance that blocks out light without compromising the aesthetic of any interiors. You can choose between cellular, roller, panel, or more varieties.

Motorized Window Treatments

Motorization can greatly increase the privacy of your home making it extra convenient if you want to lose your blinds after forgetting to close them before leaving the house. Motorized windows treatments boast increased energy efficiency benefits, extra convenient coverage for hard to reach windows, being child safe, protection from potential UV light damage, and a sleek and streamlined appearance.
