If you have ever conducted an online search for "Brisbane shutter company," you likely came across an interesting alternative to the typical horizontal blind known as a zebra blind. A zebra blind is a unique blend that can be best described as a hybrid between a standard roller shade and blind. It provides superior home protection from things like sunlight and people who might peer into your home. Additionally, the sheer fabric and adjustable slats allow for an unprecedented ability to transition between various levels of light and privacy.
 
1. Control
The level of light control you can achieve with a zebra blind is unparalleled due to the innovative design that features the combination of solid slats and sheer fabrics within in one blind. Though similar to a horizontal blind, a zebra blind differs in that it alternates the positions of the slats as you open or close the blinds. By doing so, it allows you to control the amount of light and helps you enjoy an extra layer of shading. Finally, the sheer fabric also helps decrease annoying glare.
 
If you prefer sunlight, you can simply move the slats to the fully opened position. However, if you want even more light, you can raise the entire zebra blind into the cassette valance. This setting allows the sunlight to enter the room unhindered and gives you an unobstructed view of the outside world. Conversely, if you would like less sunlight, you can adjust the position of the slats to the exact level of brightness you desire.
 
If you want complete darkness for your bedroom, you can choose from a variety of room darkening fabrics. Finally, when in the fully closed position, zebra blinds block 99 percent of harmful UV rays.
 
2. Ease of use and maintenance
In addition to being extremely easy to operate, zebra blinds have the option to be motorized. Motorization gives you the ability to open, close, or adjust your blinds from virtually anywhere within your home via remote control. Additionally, you can operate your blinds either individually or simultaneously, which makes controlling the level of overall sunlight in your home a breeze.
 
In terms of maintenance, these cut to size blinds are easier to clean than most other window coverings made of fabric. For instance, you can simply wipe them clean with a soft or damp cloth. If further cleaning is required, you can either hand wash the sheer fabric or place the fabric in your washing machine. Because the sheer fabric is lightweight, this task is rather easy to complete. Moreover, the fabric is very durable, so washing it will not harm it or cause it to wear away and allow more light into your home.
 
Conversely, if your windows are adorned with curtains or draperies, you will need to wash them at least once a week to keep them clean and free of such things as dust, dirt, and pet hair. Additionally, many curtains are made from heavier fabrics, making maintaining them a bit more labor-intensive.
 
Finally, many zebra blinds contain anti-static fabrics. This means the blinds do not collect dust, which, in turn, means they are relatively maintenance-free.
 
3. Insulation
Zebra blinds can provide your home with an extra level of insulation. For instance, when fully closed, zebra blinds will insulate your room from the cold emanating from outdoors. Additionally, as they are positioned closely against your windows, zebra blinds provide a higher level of insulation compared to many curtains or draperies.
 
4. Privacy
Blocking the ability of others to see inside your home is important when it comes to protecting your privacy. Compared to other blinds or shades, zebra blinds are exceptional when it comes to providing you the privacy you desire. This superior privacy feature is achieved via the combination of the sheer fabric and solid slats. For instance, you can simply arrange the slats in such a way that they allow you to see out while preventing others from seeing in.
 
5. Style
Because of the combination of clean lines and sheer fabric, zebra blinds work with virtually any style, including traditional as well as contemporary home decor. In fact, these blinds exude a shimmering silky look that adds a richness to any room. Finally, zebra blinds are a great choice for the home or office because they are available in a variety of colors, textures, and shapes.
