What qualities to check before buying wood blind ?

When you go for buying a wood blind you should know some technical points like :-

Which wood is used in wood Blinds ?

There are many woods available in market.

Best among them is BASSWOOD reason  this wood is light in weight and the most strongest.The lighter the weight of the wood the easy it is to operate,the heavier the weight of wood, more tough it will be to operate.

Woods like MDF , Faux Wood ,some other Artificial wood are also available in market ,they also come cheap but they are the worst woods.They are very heavy and spoils the internal operating mechanism of wood blind.They are only good if you want them for a look and not for operating them.

How to check that the wood you are buying is basswood ?

MDF          : is made of cardboard  and is  very heavy.
Faux wood : is made of kind of plastic and is also very heavy.
Basswood  : is actual wood, strong and light in weight.

Ask your vendor to show you small sample of all the woods he is offering. You can check the quality of wood by breaking  it. 

If the size of window is more than 15 sqft , (and the wood used is not Basswood ) the blind will be very heavy.

Best option is to operate the blind before buying.

Always opt for BASSWOOD Slats.

Operating Mechanism ?

Best operating mechanism is Single Cord super smooth operating Mechanism.This is the most latest and easy operating mechanism for wood Blinds.Both the operation of Tilting and Lifting is done with one cord.So no more fuss with cords hanging around.

This operating mechanism can handle single blind size up to 60 SQFT.

Headrail : 

Headrail is a Top channel in which all operating components are installed. Insist on Aluminium headrail reason this metal is rust free, if you will go for MS/Iron  section ,it may lead to rust and sooner or later it may spoil internal components.

Maintenance ?

Wood Blinds don't require much of maintenance as they can easily be cleaned with damp cloth.And the headrail should always be covered from top as it will avoid dust entering inside the mechanism and if it is sealed from all sides blind will remain trouble free for years.

Avaialablity :

These blinds are available in many color combinations at Johnson Blinds in India.

Should I go for motorizing my Blind or No ?

Motorising Window Blind  : Should I go for motorizing my Blind or No ? Many questions ?

Is motorization Expensive ?

Since the trend today is changing and now everybody want their everything to be controlled by remote ,So Why not the  Window Blinds?  

Concept for motorizing window blinds or curtains is increasing day by day and many companies all over the world  have jumped in to the production of high quality motors and remotes. Companies are trying to woo customers by offering better quality motors  at competitive prices. Major competition is among Somfy - France , Elero - Germany and Dooya - China  .Many other small companies are also in competition but these are the three most reliable. With lot of R & D, now all companies have introduced Super Silent Motors which means when you operate the blind you cannot hear sound of motor.

So ultimately the more competition among companies – the clients gets the better price.

Generally  for a normal size window of 12sqft to 22sqft a normal European motor will cost around US$135 to US$ 155 without remote and reliable Chinese motor somewhere around US$ 85 to US$ 110  and that too with remote , This cost is for motorization, cost of blind will be separate depending upon which fabric you select.

If I have more than 1 window in a room ,Do I have to buy separate remotes for all other windows ?

No ,no need to buy separate remotes .

Now Multi channel remotes are easily available. You can operate all blinds in a room with single remote. 

Maximum of 16 blinds can be operated with single remote.

Why should I choose motorization for my windows ?

These days most architects are opting for big sizes windows in rooms. Sometimes the window are of double height in that case it becomes really cumbersome to operate any blind manually,there it is most recommended to have motorization.

Motorisation is more a utility product than a fashion statement.

And ask your dealer how much warranty he is offering because if anytime after installation you have any trouble you can call your dealer.  Generally all companies offer warranty more than a year. Somfy comes with 5 year warranty.

Can I convert my existing blinds to motorise blinds?

Yes it is very easy to convert your any manually operated blind to motorization.

Are the motors Bulky and are visible ?

Motors are very very sleek and are hidden inside the roller tube. You cannot see motors.

My window size is huge , can I also opt for motorization?

Technician has to check the size of window , if it is really very big in that case you need to opt for heavy motors and if the size is still big you may have to put two or even more separate motors on a window but they can easily be operated together with single remote as mentioned earlier.

Does motors run on battery or with direct current.What about electricity bills ?

Motors generally consumes very less electricity. Only  5 Amp electicity point is required.

Where Can I get a reliable supplier in India ?

Johnson Blinds is one of the most recommended brand in India among Architects and Interior Designers for all kind of products related to blinds and motorization. Their technical person provides right suggestion, best quality motors and most reasonable prices.

BLINDS OR CURTAINS : WHAT TO CHOOSE : BIG DECISION ?

BLINDS  OR CURTAINS  : WHAT TO CHOOSE : BIG  DECISION ?

It is big decision for any window .Window Treatments can significantly change of look of any room or décor especially if you have plenty of windows.Curtains have been the standard choice for years but more recently the people are beginning to discover the advantages of Blinds over Curtains.
Below are the reasons why Blinds are better compared to curtains :-

Blinds lets you control the light you let in:In terms of functionality blinds give you more options. Curtains can either be closed or open. However the blinds give the choice to control the amount of light & privacy required in any room by tilting the vanes still shielding the inside of your room from glaring sunlight and UV rays.

Lot of stitching Cost :
Curtains require tailoring job and you have to spend heavily on stitching. Blinds comes ready made, You are charged for complete set and not individually for fabric and stitching.Blinds are much cheaper as compared to cost of Curtain fabric 

Draping curtain a Tough Task :Draping and taking out curtains for washing is a tough task where as blinds can easily be installed or removed. No fuss for installing or taking it out.

Blinds are easier to Clean :Since curtains needs to be taken down and fully washed every three to four months, In India people generally wash their curtains before festival while the blinds can easily be cleaned either with damp cloth or with feather duster anytime and very easily, the cleaning process is much simpler and less stressful.

Curtains are bigger Fire Hazard than Blinds :One of the other major reasons why people switch from curtains to blinds is that  the curtains are more prone to fire. Curtains generally stretch from floor to ceiling and are made of fire prone fabric. Blinds on the other hand now also comes in fire retardant fabric and are also not very much prone to fire.

Curtains make small room look more small :This is correct ,since curtains have pleates and look much heavier ,they make small room look more small whereas blinds gives a much smart and complete look there by making room look bigger.

Control Light and Privacy :Blinds can easily control the light and privacy.You can control the vanes in any required direction to control the light entering the room. If the Blinds are partially open you can still see outside but no one can see inside.While the curtains need to be  either completely closed or open.

Which blinds suits your purpose :There are many designs,styles and colors of  fabrics available at Johnson Blinds. You can either visit their website www.johnsoninteriors.com or facebook.com/johnsonblinds or you can call them to help you in making decision for selecting blind.

Blinds motorisation is cheaper :Yes blinds motors are much cheaper and better than curtain motors reason curtains are heavy so the curtain motors also needs to be heavy and that involves lot of cost where as  Blinds are lighter in weight and moreover  the sale of blinds motors is much much more  as compared to curtains motors,so the blinds motor come very budget friendly and are now easily available in India at Johnson Blinds.
