Renovating your home can feel overwhelming, as there are many factors to think about.  

You’ll need to consider things like choosing colours that complement each room’s fittings and walls, scheduling the work around your lifestyle, and budgeting for the project. 

One of the most important things about renovating your home is choosing the perfect blinds to fit your space.  

A common query we receive at Fraser James Blinds is, “What sets INTU Blinds apart from Perfect Fit Blinds?” 

When it comes to choosing the right kind of blinds for your home, it can be difficult to know where to start. There are so many to choose from, after all! 

Both INTU blinds and Perfect Fit blinds are popular options, but there are a few key differences between the two that might help you decide. 

What are Perfect Fit Blinds? 

Perfect Fit Blinds are a unique type of window blind that are crafted to fit your UPVC window frames seamlessly without the need for drilling or screws.  

Did you know that Perfect Fit blinds are one of the year’s top trending blind styles? 

These bespoke blinds are designed to perfectly fit the exact shape and size of your window, providing better insulation and eliminating gaps. This results in a more controlled indoor environment, allowing you to moderate light, heat, and privacy with ease. 

These blinds are suitable for any room in your home, and with their no-drill fitting system, you can have the convenience of Perfect Fit Blinds without any alterations to your home. This is ideal for homeowners who don’t want to permanently alter their windows. 

Enjoy peace of mind knowing that installation is hassle-free and won’t cause any damage! 

What are INTU Blinds? 

For those seeking a drill-free alternative to traditional blinds, INTU blinds are an ideal choice.  

Much like Perfect Fit blinds, they offer a hassle-free shading solution, perfect for conservatories, glazed doors and tilt and turn windows. If you have young children in the household, you’ll appreciate that INTU blinds are “safe by design.”  

These cordless and chainless blinds are operated by simply raising and lowering the bottom bar, while the Venetian variant allows you to tilt the slats with a sliding tab on the head rail.  

With this in mind, INTU blinds are popular for children’s rooms and communal spaces. For those of you without children, the same safety functions apply to keeping your precious pets safe. 

However, instead of having a frame that fits into the window, INTU Blinds have a surface fitted plastic cover at the top with an inbuilt slider that can operate the tilt function of the blind. They also have discreet side channels that then run the length of the window, which keeps the blind under constant tension. 

With a range of styles and materials available, including roller, Venetian, and pleated blinds, INTU blinds offer a versatile shading option for any space. 

How Do INTU Blinds and Perfect Fit Blinds Compare? 

Now, both options are great options, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t factors to take into account when deciding. After all, they are both good choices but aren’t the same product. 

Here are some factors to consider when deciding between the two: 

• Perfect-fit blinds have frames that occupy a section of the available window space, which may not be ideal for some homeowners. On the other hand, INTU blinds offer a larger, unobstructed window view, which some homeowners prefer. 
• When it comes to privacy, both types of blinds are effective, but perfect-fit blinds tend to perform slightly better in this area. This is because of the four-sided frame that reduces visibility at the sides and also limits the blinds’ movement in windy conditions. Overall, if privacy is a top concern, perfect-fit blinds may be the better choice. 
• While Perfect Fit blinds offer many benefits, there are also some potential downsides to consider. For example, the bottom section of the frame may trap dust over time, especially if the blinds are installed in areas like conservatories or kitchens that are more prone to collecting dirt and dead insects. 
• Another possible issue for perfect-fit blinds is the noise generated when the blind hits the frame. This is typically only a concern with aluminium blinds and may occur when the blind is installed on a patio door and the door is open in a breeze. 

Like all window coverings, both types of blinds will accumulate dirt over time. The good news is that they are both easy to clean and with proper care and maintenance, you can keep your blinds looking as good as new for a long time. 

Both types of blinds are designed to be child-friendly and easy to operate, which can give you peace of mind knowing that your family’s safety is a top priority. 

Ultimately, the choice between INTU blinds and Perfect Fit blinds will depend on your personal preferences and the specific requirements of your home. If you’re still unsure which option is right for you, the team at Fraser James Blinds would be happy to offer their expert advice.
