APPEAL HOME SHADINGS- Bespoke Conservatory Blinds

Friday, August 05, 2011

As visitors to the National Home Improvement Show at Earls Court will know, included among the many marvels to be seen here are the latest and most innovative products for the home and the garden. The best of these products combine smart technology with good design to create something stylish, practical and
easy to use. Nowadays, however, these products also need to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly to satisfy today’s discerning customer.

At Appeal we have 23 years experience in designing, crafting and fitting bespoke conservatory blinds and shutters. We have responded to our customers’ requirements and are proud to display our unrivalled range
of Conservatory Blinds and Interior Shutters at the National Home Improvement Show 2011.

Stylish

For your Conservatory, we offer the choice of 4 main styles as follows:

Original French Pinoleum blinds - the traditional and classic choice to transform glare to create a soft, dappled light.
Pleated blinds- contemporary, neat and versatile, these create a comfortable environment perfect for everyday living.
Solar R® blinds- exclusive to Appeal, these blinds combine a high tech fabric with precision cutting to create a chic, modern look and offer superb climate control.
Venetian blinds – the ever-popular choice, improved by Appeal’s use of thin slats which mean privacy can be maintained even when the slats are retracted.

Crafted out of lustrous North American cedar wood, our shutters are available in a choice of styles as follows:

Full height shutters – simple & elegant these look stunning on any window, instantly transforming a room.
Café style shutters – covering the bottom half of the window, these shutters create an unfussy, sophisticated solution to optimising natural light in a room, while maintaining privacy.
Tier-on-Tier shutters – These are 2 sets of shutters, one on top of the other. These create the same style impact as Full height shutters, but with more shading options.
Solid shutters – akin to wood-panelling, these shutters add Period glamour to any room and offer total privacy.

        

Practical
With the increased use of glass in today’s homes, shading products have never been more in demand. Unlike curtains, which need to be made bigger than the actual size of the window and which require poles or pelmets to hang from – thereby encroaching visually and physically into a room – shutters and blinds can be recessed into the window frame. This creates a feeling of space in a room and is why shutters are in demand again, being particularly effective in smaller rooms such as bathrooms. The recessed fit also has the practical benefit of being more thermally efficient, as there are no gaps for hot air to either enter or escape.

The beauty of Appeal’s blinds and shutters lies in our attention to detail. We offer a truly bespoke service. Your windows are meticulously measured by one of our Qualified Surveyors, and then your blinds and shutters are laser cut and hand-finished to fit your window exactly. This means that we can create blinds and shutters for virtually any shaped window or roof pane. Then to complete the no-fuss experience, our shutters and blinds are precision fitted by our expert team of experienced fitters.

Eco-friendly
Our shutters are made from North American cedar wood, which is sourced from sustainable forests in the USA and Canada. This premium quality wood is durable, lightweight, attractive and strong. Due to the superior properties of this wood, we are able to use a slim louvre design with a correspondingly slim supporting strut. This contributes to the elegant appearance of our shutters, as well as functioning practically to allow more natural light into the room when the slats are retracted.

At Appeal we only use the best quality products. Our French Pinoleum blinds are made from a lightweight reed which is traditionally hand-woven. The combination of the deft weave and light reed means that we are able to use less support wires in
these blinds, creating for you a cleaner & airier look without any sagging and ensuring that even roof blinds remain taut. We use the latest technology to improve our products. Exclusive to Appeal is our range of SolarR
and Alu-Pleat blinds, which use a specially designed aluminium backed fabric. These blinds are the most thermally efficient on the market today, reflecting 85% of the sun’s rays in summer, while offering improved insulation in winter. This means that you can use your conservatory all year round without increased fuel bills.

Easy-to-use
All our blinds and shutters can be remotely controlled for maximum convenience. Appeal’s intelligent PowerDrive™ system allows remote control operation of individual blinds or groups of blinds. This can be useful when opening or closing roof blind.
