Best roller blind alternatives

Pleated blinds, which are also referred to as concertina blinds or plissé blinds (plissé meaning fabrics that are treated in such a way so that they offer a crinkled or puckered effect), are a versatile and attractive alternative to roller or Venetian blinds. These blinds feature slimline top and bottom rails. The blind, when not being used, draw upwards and completely out of the way to the top of the window.
 
Pleated blinds come with a variety of space-saving advantages and in turn, this makes them a great choice for apartments and for homes of any size. They’re easy to use and they can help to keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler during the summer.
 
If you go for a perfect fit pleated blind option, you won’t have to screw or drill into your window frame to install these. Pleated blinds are ideal when space is at a premium while still providing your living space with a muted shading effect. As such, pleated blinds can be the perfect choice when space-saving is a necessity.
