Learn more about Vertical Blinds
Vertical blinds use tall rotating vanes (slats) that draw to one side or split in the center, making them ideal for patio doors and wide windows. You can choose between fabric vanes for a soft, drapery-like look or vinyl (PVC) vanes for wipe-clean durability. Control options include a wand in white or clear, or a cord & chain system placed on the left or right. Valances can be color-matched to the slats for a seamless finish or kept simple and thin for a minimalist profile.
Vertical blinds are ideal for large windows, visually widening narrow ones and increasing the height of wide window and door openings. They can also serve as interior partitions for zoning a room. The elegant appearance and versatility of vertical blinds allow them to be used everywhere: in offices, hotels, restaurants, and residential premises.
Materials: Fabric vs PVC
Fabric verticals soften light, reduce glare, and add texture. Depending on weave, they range from light-filtering to room-darkening. PVC verticals are resilient and easy to clean, perfect for kitchens, rentals, and high-traffic spaces. Both options rotate for precise light control and privacy.

Customization & Sizing
We build your vertical blinds to your exact opening: width, height, and preferred stack — Left, Right, or Center Split. Choose vane material/finish, valance style (matched or slim), and your control system: white or clear wand for a clean, child-safe look, or a cord/chain system positioned left or right for classic operation.
Thinking Ahead: Lifespan
Quality verticals are engineered for daily use. PVC vanes resist moisture and impacts; fabrics are treated for colorfastness and easy care. With straightforward maintenance (occasional dusting or wipe-down), typical residential lifespan is many years while keeping motion smooth and alignment true.
Vane Width & Operation
Standard vertical vanes are 3.5 inches wide — a balanced scale that works on both doors and tall windows. Vanes rotate 180° to fine-tune light and privacy. For doors used frequently, specify the stack away from the handle side for easier passage.
Color Collections for Vertical Blinds
Fabrics for vertical blinds are made from synthetic materials, usually 100% polyester. The slats are highly durable, do not fade in bright sunlight, and do not collect dust, as they are treated with a special antistatic impregnation. Most fabrics are washable. As with roller blinds, fabrics for slats vary in density: semi-opaque and blackout fabrics. Below is collection of fabrics for vertical blinds.
Color sets the vibe. Light neutrals brighten and visually expand. Greys and taupes feel calm and modern. Deeper wood-tones and charcoals add contrast and definition — especially on large openings.

Vertical Fabric vs Vertical Vinyl (PVC)
How Much Do Vertical Blinds Cost?
Pricing depends on width/height, material (fabric vs PVC), valance, and control system. Entry pricing is comparable to vinyl options, while premium fabrics and extra-wide spans add cost. PVC vertical blinds starts from $90, and fabric blinds start from $110.
About Vertical Slats (Vanes)
Vertical slats are the working heart of this category. Each vane pivots to catch or release light like louvers, letting you tilt for glare control, close for privacy, or stack away from the view to open the room. Fabrics tame daylight and soften acoustics; PVC keeps edges crisp and resists moisture. Pair a center-split stack with French doors, or use a left/right stack to keep access clear on a sliding door. A matched or thin valance tidies the headrail so the installation reads clean and built-in.
Where to Buy Vertical Blinds?
Visit a showroom to see full-height displays and compare fabrics vs PVC in person, or order online with custom sizing and stack selection. Prefer at-home service? Book a consultation for precise measurements and expert recommendations.

Disadvantages of vertical blinds
Since vertical blinds consist of separate panels, they tend to make noise when moving and colliding with each other, which can be a disadvantage if you live in a windy area.
Vertical Blinds in different rooms
Bedrooms: Blackout vertical blinds are highly recommended for bedrooms to effectively block light, ensuring a dark and relaxing environment conducive to sleep.
Offices/TV Rooms: Sheer or voile vertical blinds are ideal for these spaces, as they reduce glare on screens while still allowing a comfortable, muted light to enter.
Kitchens: These non-porous materials are 100% water and grease-resistant and can be easily wiped clean of cooking splatters and steam residue. Avoid fabric/textile materials.
Bathroom: High humidity can lead to mildew on standard fabrics. PVC vertical blinds are the best choices here.
Large Windows: Vertical blinds are an excellent solution for covering large windows, providing efficient light control and privacy across wide expanses.
Bay Windows: Standard vertical blinds can be specially fitted with headrails that follow the curve of a bay or bow window for a custom, cohesive look.
Sliding Glass Doors & Patio Doors: Vertical blinds are a perfect and practical solution for both sliding glass doors and patio doors, offering smooth operation and easy access.
French Doors: Vertical blinds are also a suitable and stylish option for French doors, providing privacy and light management while complementing their design.
