Try an Alternative to Blinds with Unique Window Treatments
There’s no doubt that blinds have been a classic, popular option when it comes to covering your windows. However, did you know that blinds from big box stores can be limiting? From their limited sizes and style options, big box store blinds don’t provide all the benefits that custom window treatments can.
If you are looking for a unique window treatment styles that offer personalized style, precise light control, lasting quality, and more, then you are in the right place. At Jamesburg Hardware & Appliance, we love Hunter Douglas blinds—but we’d also like to pay some attention to our nominees for best alternative to blinds from Hunter Douglas.
Designer Banded Shades Combine Blinds with Roller Shades
If you’re looking for an alternative to blinds that delivers both privacy and style, we highly recommend Designer Banded Shades from Hunter Douglas. Combining alternative sheer and solid fabric bands in one roller-style window treatment, these shades allow you to enjoy filtered light and privacy at the same time. This is thanks to the sheer bands that allow natural light to softly filter through while the solid bands block direct light when needed. You can close the slats for a complete room darkening look. Available in a variety of stunning colors that range from neutral to bold, these shades let you personalize them down to the last detail for a window treatment that truly suits your home.
Silhouette® Sheer Shades Allow For Custom Illumination
If you want your windows to have a softer, more elegant look, then Silhouette® Sheer Shades are the perfect alternative to blinds. These shades feature soft fabric vanes that appear to be floating between two sheer panels, transforming bright UV rays into a soft glow while still allowing you to block outside eyes. Simply tilt the fabric vanes to enjoy varying degrees of light or adjust them for exceptional privacy. Available in a wide variety of custom fabric colors, these shades can be designed to stand out or blend in with your home’s current aesthetic.
Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters Are A Durable Choice
For those looking for a window treatment options that’s durable, easy to maintain, and timeless, Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are just the ticket when it comes to an alternative to blinds. These shutters are made from the UV-resistant Polysatin™ material that ensures they won’t warp, crack, fade, or peel even in hot or humid conditions. This makes them excellent for kitchens, bathrooms, or sunrooms. The best part? Unlike blinds, which can require frequent dusting and maintenance, these custom shutters are incredibly low-maintenance, making them a perfect choice for homeowners who want stylish unique window treatments without the hassle.
New: Aria™ Fabric Blinds
A new addition to the Hunter Douglas lineup, Aria™ Fabric Blinds are a truly unique twist on the standard horizontal blind. Because their vanes are made from lightweight but sturdy fabric, these window treatments perform like a combination of blinds and shades, allowing for better view-through and larger capacities than heavy wood blinds. Plus, their fabric vanes can move and twist, which means better bounce-back than more brittle materials like thin vinyl vanes you could find at a big box retailer.
