Vertical Blinds are an excellent way to adjust light levels coming into a room as well as adding privacy. A Vertical Blind is suitable for large or wide windows and sliding doors. They are a popular choice because it gives the space a modernist look, are easy to control and quite lightweight. At Direct Blinds Cork we offer a range of natural and simple fabrics with great light filtering. You can select a style that will blend with any room décor.  

Vertical Blinds feature vertical rotating slats and are also referred to as track blinds because the louvers rotate back and forth along a track. It is important to note that when pulled back, the vertical blinds stack at either side of your window which can take up space. 

There are two ways of operating a vertical blind:

1. Chain Operated  
2. Wand operated

Wand operated vertical blinds are safer for children as they have no cord or chain loop in its operation. Chain operated blinds can be made safe by reducing the length of the chain and cord and fitting safety devices. For existing chain operated vertical blinds, another potential risk is the bottom chain at the end of the louvers. We recommend that this chain is removed where young kids are present.
