Blinds can have a surprisingly large effect on the output and environment of any workplace – if you’ve ever worked in an office with broken, ill-fitting vertical blinds, you’ll already know how much of a difference they can make.
If you’re looking for a way to boost your workplace, especially with the summer heat well on its way, then new blinds may be the perfect way to do it – here are a few great reasons why new blinds could level up your workplace!
Quality Blinds Cut Your Business’s Energy Bill
One immediate advantage of high-quality, well-fitting blinds for an office or workplace is that they provide much more insulation than cheap or ineffective blinds would, and reduce energy costs in all seasons by boosting heat retention in the winter and warding off the sun in the summer.
The best blinds for this purpose are the Pleated Blinds and Perfect Fit Blinds offered at Expression Blinds – they are custom-made to fit exactly into your windows, providing perfect coverage, and act to trap a layer of air against the glass, providing additional insulation and helping to stop heat transfer through the windows.
They also provide unbeatable coverage against the sun, so you won’t need to rely on air conditioning or electric fans to the same extent to keep the workplace liveable during one of our all-too-frequent summer heatwaves, which will only become hotter and longer as we continue into our new climate-changed world.
Pleated blinds have the additional insulation advantage of containing air pockets within the blind fabric itself, making them the best choice for insulation – and they’re even available in a range of light-filtering fabrics which can allow the sunlight to filter in, black it out completely, or incorporate solar-protective materials on the outside to provide unbeatable light protection alongside that drop in energy bills.
High Quality Blinds Create A Better Working Environment
Insulation isn’t just good for your business’s bottom line – it also makes for a much more comfortable environment for the people working in your workplace, and that in turn leads to a happier, more focused, and more effective staff.
Good-Looking, Well-Fitted Blinds Help Build A Solid Impression Of The Workspace
A workplace with cohesive, well-executed décor, that’s well-maintained, and that looks great, creates a good impression on both your staff and your customers or clients – it makes the organisation feel more well-put-together, more conscious of detail, and demonstrates more care for the people who inhabit the space.
All that is to say, it makes the people who work there feel like you care about their experience and wellbeing, and the effect on morale can’t be understated!
Blinds Cut Down On Noise And Distraction When People Are Trying To Work
Finally, there’s the distraction element: good blinds will cut down on noise getting in from outside, and remove visual distractions that might otherwise bother people who are trying to get some work done.
Quality blinds that fit well – like the made-to-measure blinds provided by Expression Blinds – create an additional layer of air against the window pane, which reduces vibrations passing through the space and makes it much harder for noise from outside to get into the workspace. It also works in the opposite direction, keeping your office neighbours happy if you’re playing music or hosting a large meeting.
Can I Buy Blinds Directly Online?
Expression Blinds don’t just install custom blinds ourselves – we are also able to sell them directly to you online via this website’s sales page, so you can fit them yourself and enjoy a lower price and the same fantastic results! All you need to do is pop on to the store page by clicking the button below, choose the blinds types you want, and make a few quick measurements to ensure they’re made to fit exactly. Then in just a few clicks, you’re done!
Once your blinds have been delivered, it’s easy to install them – just fit them to the window the same way you’d fit store-bought blinds, and since they’ve been made specifically to the measurements you provided, they should fit perfectly. That way, you can enjoy the best of both worlds – great Expression Blinds quality and fit, but at a lower cost than hiring a professional fitter!
What to Expect in Your Free Consultation
Expression Blinds never employ commission-based salespeople – we want to make sure that all of our fitters are working towards making sure that you get the best blinds for your needs, not the best commission cut for themselves. One of the main ways that we provide the best possible results for our customers is with a free no-obligation consultation with one of our fitters before any work starts.
At a time that suits you, our fitter will come out and speak to you about what you’re looking for, what you need your blinds to do, and what sort of blinds would get that job done best. They’ll make any professional recommendations that might help, answer any questions that you have, and take the measurements necessary to make sure that the blinds will fit perfectly.
Finally, once you’ve made your decision, they’ll provide you with a quote in writing on the same day, locking the price in and guaranteeing that it’s fixed and transparent, with no extra charges or surprise fees later on.
