First of all, roller blinds are divided among themselves according to the method of fastening:

Standard, open or "free hanging". They can be fixed in the window opening, or in front of it - on the ceiling or wall.
MINI - mounted on the sash with a bracket. They are assembled into a neat roll and do not have guides. If you want to buy roller blinds inexpensively - a great choice!

The price of a roller blind - what does it depend on?

The cost is made up of several factors:

Canvas dimensions - the maximum parameters are indicated in the product cards
Control system - the more convenient and modern it is, the more expensive
Fabric - varies depending on the composition, design
The presence of remote control - it is possible to equip with an electric drive, control from the remote control, connection to the "Smart Home"

Roller blinds have become one of the most practical and beautiful ways to decorate wooden and plastic windows of the European standard. In the raised state, they, rolled into a roll, are tightly removed upwards, and in the lowered state, they merge with the window into one whole.

Roller blinds owe their name to their original design - a single piece of fabric rolled into a compact roll on an aluminum shaft (rod), using a simple but reliable mechanism. They can be easily lowered or raised to the required level and fixed, thereby adjusting the flow of light. Installation is carried out on the wall, in the upper part of the window or door, on the ceiling or sash, depending on their type.

Popular Options

Classic roller blinds are essentially a metal pipe (usually aluminum), on which fabric is wound, fixed on the sides in two plastic brackets. The brackets can be fixed to both the ceiling and the wall. These open, free-hanging systems are controlled by a chain mechanism.

How to install correctly

The installation of mini models differs from the installation of classic ones - in addition to self-tapping screws, high-quality adhesive tape can be used during installation, especially since the weight of the product allows this. That is, Mini systems can be installed without causing damage to the frames. If necessary, they can be removed almost without a trace, since traces of adhesive tape can be easily wiped off with kerosene or acetone.

Uni can be installed both on self-tapping screws, and, plastic or metal, without drilling (for opening sashes). Moreover, Uni curtains are another type of Velcro: you can use special double-sided tape to mount them. Installation, based on the design features of the frame, is carried out either in the light opening, or directly on the sash with a glazing bead depth of less than 6 mm.

Control

chain mechanism

With the help of a plastic chain, the fabric of the roller blinds is wound on the shaft or, conversely, unwound.

With spring mechanism

The opening and closing of the canvas can be controlled using a cord or ring, which is fixed in its lower part. The position of the web is blocked by an additional locking mechanism that does not allow it to open / close arbitrarily. The locking mechanism can be unlocked with the same ring or cord. In some cases, the curtain can be closed by simply pulling on its lower edge.

Electronic control

The shaft with such a control mechanism is driven by an electric motor, which is turned on using the remote control and wall switch. The remote control makes it possible, by combining several curtains into a single system, to control them at the touch of a button. You can optionally install solar sensors and timers.

It should be noted that it is quite strong, and the likelihood of gaps is very small. However, repairs may sometimes be needed.

If there are small gaps, then they could be sewn up, but how aesthetically it will look. In such cases, it would be more correct to completely replace the canvas.

"Help" may also be necessary for the lifting mechanism. For example, a chain break or an electric motor failure - in order to correct the situation, they will either have to be replaced or repaired.

Durability - above all!

Bamboo curtains have absolutely no cons! They are very reliable, and it will not be difficult to regulate them. In terms of functionality, they are the best!

Curtains made of wood are becoming very popular, especially today, when the issue of environmental friendliness of products is in first place in the design of modern interiors. They are such curtains of a design made in a horizontal position. At the same time, the material is completely non-toxic and completely natural.

Material advantages:

They look very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing, however, like everything that is made of natural wood, because the texture is the most natural!
Under the influence of the sun, such curtains do not fade. In addition, the material in the manufacturing process lends itself to various treatments using special compounds and mixtures.
Moisture resistant. To do this, they are also treated with special means during the production process.
Thanks to varnishing or laminating wood, the period of operation of the structure is extended.

As for the disadvantages, this is the price, which is quite high for natural wood products. In addition, sometimes wood species are used that are not very durable, which, accordingly, will not last too long.

The most popular materials that are in great demand, the cost of which starts at approximately 300 rubles.

Selection of type of fasteners

Roller blinds are a single piece of fabric, which should cover either the entire window, or some specific part of it. Behind the fabric there is a guide (not one) and the bottom bar moves along it. Thanks to this, in the event of a draft, the fabric will not “depart” from the glass.

In such products there can be two types of fasteners:

Open - more affordable price range.
Closed - much higher cost.

Roller blinds are not only an element of room decor. They are also able to perform the main task, completely closing the room from the penetration of sunlight or, to disperse the ingress of light inside the room.

"Open" mount

The design of such a mount is quite simple. It is a shaft on which the fabric is wound, as well as a mechanism and a lower bar. A variation of such a mount differs only in that the diameter of the shaft can be different from each other. And also there may be a different shape and thickness of the lower bar. The functional task in each such mechanism is performed according to one principle.

But if you decide to choose just such a type of fastening, it is important to understand that the wider the web, the thicker the shaft diameter will be. Using this particular mount, you can close the entire window, as well as the sashes individually. The cost of curtains is generally low when compared with other options.

The difference between a closed mount and the previous one is that there is an additional box here. It helps to ensure that the shaft on which the fabric is wound is closed. But if you use this method of fastening, it is important to remember that the width of the fabric web will be narrower than the window opening, and this difference will be the same as the width of the guides themselves.

It is for this reason that if you want your design to be more airy, you should pay special attention to the open type of fasteners. But if the first place is still occupied by the issue of functionality, as well as practicality, then it is definitely necessary to choose the closed type of roller blinds for plastic windows.

Since roller blinds perform not only a decorative function, but also are able to diffuse or darken a room, it is important to know about the main types of such products.

Light diffusers

This type can be more attributed to the elements of interior decoration. They are able to perfectly scatter the light that enters through the openings. In addition, they can be perfectly combined with curtains or curtains.

Reflectors

They, as the name suggests, reflect the light rays perfectly. We can say that they do not let in light, blocking the penetration of the sun's rays into the room. It would be appropriate to design in a children's room, where sometimes you need "darkness at noon."

If you need an intermediate version of the previous ones, then day-night roller blinds are the thing! They have both translucent and dense fabric strips that do not transmit light. In this case, you can vary the lighting of the room and illuminate it, or, conversely, darken it. This version of curtains is quite effective.

Selection of curtains for various rooms

Each of us wants to feel cozy and comfortable in our own home. In order to arrange this, it is important to approach the issue of choosing curtains correctly. After all, this is exactly the element with which you can decorate the interior, as well as protect the room from unwanted bright light.

In such a room, the most suitable type of roller blinds is day-night. After all, they can be very successfully varied by setting the intensity of light. Dense fabrics for roller blinds are suitable for this room, thanks to which the very comfort will be created. In a small room, Ikea roller blinds will be successful, matching the color scheme of the walls. But in this case, there should be drawings / patterns on the fabric canvases and then the living room will look fresh and cozy.

She is the most "intimate". Everyone wants to feel safe and comfortable in it. Also, you don’t want to worry and worry at all about the fact that someone will see you or the bright rays of the sun will bother you just when you want to sleep soundly.

To avoid all this, it is worth purchasing cassette roller blinds that will reflect light. And it will be not only a huge benefit, but also a very stylish solution! But in order to support the overall design idea, Ikea roller blinds must match the color scheme of the wallpaper or other interior elements. In other words, they should not stand out with their appearance from the general interior design.

Roller blinds without drilling in the kitchen

Roller blinds are quite popular for interior design of kitchens. In this room, the curtains perform primarily a functional task, rather than decorating the interior. It is definitely necessary to select fabrics in which a special water-repellent impregnation is carried out in order to reduce the rapid contamination of materials.

First of all, roller blinds on windows should be absolutely combined with the rest of the interior of the room.
