What Are Horizontal Blinds?
Horizontal blinds feature horizontal slats made of wood, aluminum, or vinyl that you can tilt to control light and privacy. You can raise the blind completely or tilt the slats to regulate light and airflow throughout the day.
Benefits of Horizontal Blinds
Horizontal blinds excel at light control and privacy. The tilting slats let you direct sunlight onto the ceiling, lighting your room without glare while maintaining privacy. These window treatments are durable and easy to maintain since the slats are simple to wipe down.

Consider your room's needs when selecting horizontal blinds. Bedrooms and family rooms benefit from the precise light control these window treatments provide. Think about slat size when choosing, as wider slats offer a more substantial look while narrower slats create a streamlined appearance.
