Frequently Asked Questions About Blinds In San Diego

How Do Sunburst’s Blinds Stack Up Against Other Blinds?

Vinyl and aluminum blinds have inherent flaws that lead them to bow or snap easily. These blinds typically have cheap mechanical elements that also wear out and act up over their limited lifetime. By contrast, blinds from Sunburst Shutters & Window Fashions have inherently strong materials including furniture-grade woo and a solid wood substitute that lasts longer than other blinds. They won’t twist or fracture when your dog knocks into them, or if a toddler grabs them. They also operate as intended over the course of their service life, so you can avoid the annoyance of your blinds getting stuck when you make an effort to manipulate them.

Our blinds are more appealing as well. Sturdy hardwood and faux wood blinds give the impression of upscale products due to their exquisite fabrication and inspired colors. Then we take it a step further by providing distinctive valances, twill tapes, and round corners per your unique preferences. In a market where you come across cheap blinds in every store, Sunburst’s blinds stand out for their superior construction and unsurpassed appeal.

How Do Blinds Work?

Our blinds operate much like other options. When you shut your blinds, a neatly stacked group of sturdy slats drops past your window to obscure it. You may adjust the slats to turn them out if you want a see outside or shift them down to impede views and sunlight. As you open your blinds, the slats ascend and stack neatly next to the headrail installed over your window or at the top of your window opening.

Sunburst has differing lifting mechanisms for your blinds in San Diego. Standard cord tilt blinds consist of cords you pull to move the slats, while blinds with wands function with the twist of a bar. We also have lift blinds that you pull down and push up via the bottom rail.

Can I Hang Blinds In Bathrooms?

Not all window treatments can stand up against hot and humid baths and kitchens. The heat and dampness will make materials weaken from contracting and expanding, leading to deforming and splitting. Damp rooms may also promote the growth of mold on permeable window treatments.

If you want window blinds in higher humidity rooms, your most sensible choice is our faux wood blinds. Built from a resilient composite material, the slats are invulnerable water and the destruction it causes. You are able to enjoy their appeal in kitchens and baths for many years.

Are Blinds The Same As Louvered Shutters?

Simply: No. While many residents make reference to any window product as a blind, interior shutters (also termed plantation shutters) are a significant advancement over blinds. Shutters have longer lifespans, block out more exterior light and temperature, are equipped with a frame surrounding the window to make them more of a permanent addition, and include better warranties.

If you’re trying to pick between blinds and shutters in San Diego, Sunburst Shutters San Diego can help evaluate your needs and determine the right covering for your windows.
