Blinds are a common window covering that offers privacy, controls light, and enhances the look of a room. Closing them properly depends on the type of blinds you have. Here’s how to close blinds.
- Horizontal Blinds (Venetian Blinds)
- Find the rod (tilt wand) or cord that adjusts the slats.
- Twist the wand or pull the tilt cord to angle the slats until they fully close. For complete darkness, ensure the slats overlap tightly.
- If the blinds are raised, pull the lift cord downward slightly to release the lock, then let the blinds lower gradually. Secure the cord when they are fully lowered.
- Vertical Blinds
- Use the wand or chain to rotate the vertical slats until they are closed. Ensure the slats overlap for maximum privacy.
- If the blinds are open along the window, pull the cord or slide the wand to draw them together.
- Roller Blinds
- Grip the bottom of the blind and pull it downward gently to unfurl it.
- Once the blind is at the desired position, release it slowly to engage the locking mechanism.
- Roman Blinds
- Use the cord or chain mechanism to release the blind, letting it fall into place. Stop when it reaches the bottom of the window.
- Smooth out any folds to ensure the blind hangs evenly.
- Smart Blinds
- For automated blinds, use the remote control or a connected app to close them. Select the “close” option to adjust them to the desired position.
