These blinds hang vertically, rather than horizontally as with typical blinds. Regular blinds are made of real or faux wood, while vertical window blinds are usually crafted from materials such as vinyl or fabric.
The louvers hang down from a headrail at the top of the blinds. This headrail also houses the traversing system that lets you move the blinds back and forth. Our custom window blinds can be moved in one direction from one side to the other, or with a split-draw system that parts the blinds in the middle.
The best vertical blinds for windows are made from durable vinyl. Vinyl is easy to clean, durable, and lasts longer than typical materials and fabrics.
Vertical window blind widths range from 10” to 191” and heights from 5” to 120”. The size of your window or door determines the exact measurement, as these blinds are manufactured to fit your space precisely.
To measure for custom-made vertical blinds, you'll need to measure the width and height of the window or sliding glass door. Typically, you want to add two to three inches to the width, so that the verticals properly stack on the side of the window when the blinds are open.
All of our vertical blinds have a unique S-shaped louver. There are different materials to choose from, such as fabric or vinyl, and more than 230 color, pattern, and texture options. We also offer numerous designs for headrails and valances. Our Majesty Wood valance is an upgrade feature and comes in 8 colors.
Because they are vertical, vertical blinds are well-suited for large areas such as sliders, patio doors, or big windows.
Our professional installation team members handle installing your vertical blinds for you. They use great care and attention to detail to make sure you are completely satisfied with the end result.
This will depend on the material you select for your vertical blinds. Vinyl blinds can usually be cleaned with mild soap and water; be sure to spot test it first in an inconspicuous area. For fabric blinds, use the brush attachment on your vacuum to gently clean the louvers.
The difference between vertical and horizontal blinds is slat orientation and movement. The slats for custom vertical blinds are vertical and are designed to move back and forth. Horizontal blinds have horizontal slats and are designed to move up and down, typically via a cord or motorization.
