What the AI looks for in Horizontal Window Blinds
- Slat width
- Mini blinds use about 1 inch slats. Faux wood and wood blinds use about 2 inch slats. Wider slats give a better view through and a more upscale look, but they stack taller.
- Material for the room
- Use faux wood or aluminum in bathrooms and kitchens and real wood in dry rooms. Real wood warps in humidity, and faux wood is heavier but moisture tolerant.
- Route holes
- Choose routeless or privacy-slat designs where light leaks matter. The holes the lift cord passes through let pinpoints of light through when the blind is closed.
- Stack height
- Check the raised stack height against your glass height. Faux wood blinds can stack tall enough to block part of the view.
- Cordless lift
- Choose cordless or wand-tilt operation. It improves child safety and gives a cleaner look.
