How wide is a Wide Blind?
Wide blinds are roller or vertical blinds that can be made outside the standard blind size limits to wider widths. This is particularly useful for those with large windows and they wish to shade their windows with a single blind. Although many online retailers claim to cater for extra wide blinds, we are among the very few that offer very wide roller and vertical blinds.
Wide Roller Blinds
Our choice of extra wide roller blinds reaches beyond three metres in width. This allows you to measure your wide window for blinds without any further effort. Wide roller blinds come in a huge choice of colours and fabric. We can make wide roller blinds from 200mm to 3450mm (3.4metres) wide and with a drop of up to 4250mm (4.2 metres).
DotcomBlinds roller blinds are made with metal barrels as standard, we automatically upgrade the barrel to a larger diameter to accommodate the added weight from the large square meterage of fabric. A lot of retailers will ignore this step and you will have a weak barrel that bows in the middle. To us, having the ability to select the right size barrel is an indicator of quality and care that we take and lets you be rest assured that we have considered every aspect of our wide window blind’s construction.
Wide Vertical Blinds
We also offer extra wide vertical blinds that can span up to 4000mm (4.0 metres) with a drop of 4550mm too. This is among some of the largest blinds available to the general public, with many other online retailers claiming to cater for wider width blinds but instead they split them into multiple blinds.
For some width / drop combinations we may be required to join the fabric and so you may find a small seam where two pieces of fabric are connected, however this is a very subtle addition to the fabric and due to the fact we have only selected plain material instead of patterned fabric, this will be barely noticeable.
Wide window blinds are really easy to measure and install, simply follow the usual instructions provided in our How To Guides – measure the width and drop of the recess, and if the blind is going outside of the recess (or if a recess isn’t present) then add on 100mm to the width and 140mm to the drop to ensure there will be no light leakage around the window. This is particularly important for those wanting to utilise extra wide blackout blinds as it will ensure a good seal against exterior light.
If your window is wider than the sizes we offer on our website, we advise considering having multiple blinds instead of one big one as you will be hard pushed to find anyone that can make blinds wider than us at the prices we offer them.
