HeyBlinds carries a wide variety of blackout blinds. Zebra blackout blinds are quickly becoming more popular due to their unique look. Blackout Roller Shades and Roman Blinds are always a classic choice. Blackout Cellular shades will not only block the light, they will also help to lower your energy bill.
HeyBlinds is strictly an online store and does not print brochures or catalogues. That helps us to keep things easy, economical, and environmentally friendly.
HeyBlinds only carries the best quality blinds available. Every product we sell has been carefully selected and tested for quality control. Our 100-Day Risk-Free In-Home Trial guarantee lets you try out your blind to make sure you're completely satisfied with your purchase. Your blinds and shades also come with a 3 year warranty.
In certain cases there are weight limitations for particular blinds. If a blind is too long the weight could add frequent strain on the working mechanism. For extra wide blinds, we recommend splitting the blind into two separate blinds to reduce the weight and strain.
You can let our HeyBlinds team know about any special instructions in the Notes textbox that you'll find in your cart and on the checkout page. This is where you can, for example, simply specify where you would like the tilt controls.(ex. for tilt controls on the outside of the blinds enter: left blind tilt position=left, right blind tilt position=right)
Top Down/Bottom Up means you can raise your blind from the bottom or lower it from the top. So you can have the bottom or top of your window blinds or shades open depending on the privacy you need or want.
Continuous cord loop means the cord used to raise and lower your shade is one continuous loop operated by a clutch mechanism. It makes the blind operate smoothly and is often recommended for larger blinds.
No cords means you only have to grasp the bottom of the blind to raise or lower it into place. Safe, quick, easy and clean.
Blackout means no light will come through your shade. It will keep your room completely dark. Perfect for anyone who needs to get some extra shut-eye.
If you aren't sure where to start, just reach out to our Customer Care team, they'll help guide you and narrow down which blinds and shades best suit your needs.
You might be surprised to know that our 2" Faux Wood Blinds are the best priced blinds on our site. Surprising right? Because they don't look cheap at all. Aluminum mini-blinds are another great budget choice.
Dark colours like grey and black do a better job of reducing the light into a room. For a completely dark room, our blackout roller blinds can blockout 99% of incoming light.
Removing blinds from a window is very easy. Start by raising your blind completely. Release the clip holding your blinds and set them aside. Next detach the headrail from the mounting clips holding it in place. To finish up, unscrew the mounting hardware. You're all done!
Lower your blinds all the way. Untie the knot at the end and cut your cords to the desired length. Re-tie the knots at the end and you're all done.
"Faux" is actually the French word for 'fake'. The "Faux" is a mixture of composite wood material or a PVC/vinyl material, manufactured to look like real wood. It's actually better than wood because they won't warp due to humidity.
HeyBlinds recommends any blind that are durable and can resist moisture and humidity. Faux Wood Blinds, Roller Shades, and Aluminum Mini Blinds are perfect contenders for any basement.
If you're looking to eliminate light from the sun, HeyBlinds recommends choosing a blackout or solar shade. If you are wanting to control the temperature, cellular shades are a great option.
Cellular shades are one of the hardest working shades on the market. They have intricate layers of fabric that can control the heat and cold in your home. With their ability to reduce your energy bill they are a wise investment.
Rotate each blade so they are partially open and then begin to remove them. Remove the track by locating the spring clip at the back and release it with a screw driver. After you have removed the track unscrew all the mounting hardware so your window is ready for your next window treatment.
Not really. Because windows come in all shapes and sizes, there isn't a true standard size for blinds.
When choosing a blind or shade, you should always think of your home's decor first. Zebra blinds, roller shades, and faux wood blinds are all good choices for larger windows.
Roller blinds are a great choice if you want a blind that rolls right up completely, out of the way. They are also very versatile, easy to clean, and require very little maintenance and upkeep.
If you're looking for a versatile blind that looks like real wood, then a faux wood blind would be the perfect choice for you. They look like wood but don't warp, crack, or hold moisture. Only downside is they are a bit heavier than real wood blinds.
Roman blinds and shades are generally going to cost more than most other types of blinds and shades. This is because they are made with more fabrics, and also require stronger lift mechanisms due to their heavier weight.
Solar shades have the unique ability to block out the sun's harmful UV rays. During the day they block out the sun while still offering a view to the outside, and privacy. They come in a range of open percentages so you can choose the blockage you need. However, it's important to know, they do not provide privacy at night.
For nurseries we would recommend a blackout cordless cellular shade, or a cordless blackout roman shade. Both will block 99% of the light, and the cordless option makes them safe for young children. A blackout roller blind would also be a good choice, with the cordless option.
Our 2" Faux Wood Blinds offer a lot of visibility between their wide slats. Similarly, Zebra Blinds, although a roller blind, offer the visibility of a wide slat vertical blind.
Our roller blinds come in a traditional vinyl, light filtering fabric, and blackout fabric. Depending on your needs, they are suitable for a variety of rooms and situations.
Roman Blinds are made of fabric and look equally appealing down or up. When down, they have the appearance of a tailored drape, when raised they fold neatly into perfect pleats. They are a blind with the softness of a drape.
Roman Blinds are lovely, but they can get heavy. 120" is the max width you can order. If your window is wider, we recommend having two blinds made for the same window.
Mini Blinds got their name because they are, well, mini. They have narrow 1" aluminum slats and can fit into tight spaces better than most blinds.
HeyBlinds carries a wide variety of black out blinds. Zebra black out blinds are quickly becoming more popular due to their unique look. Blackout Roller Shades and Roman Blinds are always a classic choice. Blackout Cellular shades will not only block the light, they will also help to lower your energy bill.
To determine your blinds or shades’ size, you will need to take a few window measurements. Don't worry; it's easy. Just follow our quick measuring guide for a perfect fit.
You can find everything you need to know for installing your blinds or shades on our installation instructions page. No special skills or tool belt required.
Although that would be easy, it wouldn't give you the perfect fit. Your old blinds were made with factory deductions and wouldn't be the right measurements for your new ones. For help, check out our Measuring Guide.
When measuring, round down to the nearest 1/8" for width and round up to the nearest 1/8" for height.
Those are two different measurements for different mounting specifications. Min flush-mount depth is the depth needed to mount your blinds within the frame so they sit flush with the window. Min inside-mount depth is the depth needed to install the blind inside the window frame.
Yes. You will have everything you need to install your blinds. You shouldn't need additional hardware unless you are mounting into a surface material that requires anchors or screws that are more sturdy. The instructions you receive will be easy to follow, but you can also refer to our Installation Guide for quick reference tips.
Don't worry! Our Right Fit Guarantee has you covered. If you make a mistake in measuring, we'll fix it for free. Check out the HeyBlinds Guarantee page for more information.
Measure the width of your window at the top, middle and bottom. For 2 blinds, divide the smallest width by two. Then add 1/4" to each blind. Repeat the same process for 3 blinds.
The difference between inside and outside mount refers to the way you can hang your blind or shade. Inside mount means the blind or shade is attached within the window frame. Outside mount means the blind or shade hangs from outside the window frame.
Yes. In most cases the min width requirements begin at 18", but verify the measurement requirements for your exact shade before ordering. Detailed specifications are listed for each product.
Yes. However, each blind has different measurement requirements. Check the product info for your exact blind to get the measurements you need.
