Aluminum Mini Blinds Buying Guides from Blinds Chalet

Aluminum Mini Blinds Materials

As their name suggests, our Aluminum Mini blinds are made out of aluminum. This might raise a mental image of brightly metallic, silver blinds that catch the sunlight and blind passersby, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. With a wide selection of colors, our Aluminum Mini blinds need not play into stereotypes.

Aluminum Mini Blinds Features

Aluminum Mini blinds don’t have the same concerns as Faux Wood or Real Wood blinds. In comparison to the others, Aluminum Mini blinds are incredibly lightweight and less dense than either wood option.
Due to the aluminum material they are made out of, Aluminum Mini blinds are the perfect selection for areas that require high durability, such as those with; high temperatures, excess moisture, rough elements.
Aluminum Mini blinds do not require any special care, and as such, are easy to clean and dust.

Aluminum Mini Blinds Upgrades

When it comes to upgrades for the Aluminum Mini blinds, many available upgrades are product specific and do not apply to all products available.

2 on 1 Headrail - When blinds are fitted to a large area they often become unmanageable due to their size. In solution to this, multiple sets of blinds are hung from the same headrail and fitted to are, making them easier to deal with.
Cordless Lift - This allows you raise and lower your blinds without the use of a cord. Perfect for homes with small children, without a cord, there’s one less thing to worry about.
Wand Motorization - Another option for going cordless, wand motorization makes raising and lowering your blinds as simple as pressing a button.

Things to Think About

1" Aluminum Blinds and 1/2" Micro Mini Blinds can be installed in applications that have limited mounting surfaces. With 1" x 1" headrails, these products required only about 3/4" of mounting space.

While many of the upgrades are product specific for the Aluminum Mini blinds, there are several products that have no available upgrades at all:
