How To Pick Bedroom Window Treatments In Jacksonville

When you’re looking for a window covering for your bedroom in Jacksonville, color, installation, privacy, light control, and energy efficiency are important criteria to assess. What’s the best window treatment between plantation shutters, sliding barn doors, blinds, and shades? Here are 5 things to keep in mind when ordering bedroom window treatments in Jacksonville, FL.

Privacy

Privacy is the primary reason to buy bedroom window treatments. Drapes, blinds, and shades may provide you with an adequate screen from nosy neighbors. But their often sheer material means silhouettes and shadows can still be seen.

Sliding barn doors and plantation shutters, conversely allow you ultimate privacy. The plantation shutter louvers can be moved to close entirely. And bedroom shutters are set up with a frame that ensures no space on the sides of the window. With sliding barn door shutters, all you have to do to get more privacy is slide the panels closed. A slight gap on the sides of the window may occur based on how your sliding barn door shutters are set up.

Light Control

For all the times you want to ignore the full moon, sleep in, or block out an obnoxious street light, you need a light-blocking bedroom window treatment. Blindslike shades and curtains, are not the best at darkening the room. The material they’re made of is usually thin. And light still filters in from the sides.

Certain kinds of shades can result in enough light blocking. And some blackout curtains succeed in reducing the brightness in the room. Some blackout curtains succeed in minimizing the amount of light that comes through the window. And some shades may result in enough light blocking. Sliding barn doors , made from solid wood can block the light head on. However the gap on the sides of the panels does not seal off the light completely.

The frame that comes standard with all three types of plantation shutters seals off any stray sun rays. And their louvers can tilt flat, to create the darkest possible space. Both Ovation® wood and Polywood® shutters louvers can be closed to block out light. However, reclaimed wood shutters may have holes and markings that let in light. Now you can ignore the moonlight every day with these bedroom plantation shutters!

Energy Efficiency

It‘s not easy to keep the temperature in the bedroom pleasant all year round for restful sleep with the wrong window treatment. That’s why you’ll want to install for a bedroom window treatment with a high energy efficiency rating.

Polywood shutters insulate 70% better than the equivalent wood shutters, and 1600% better than aluminum blinds. And third party testing shows that Polywood blocks up to 30° of temperature and minimizes up to 45% of airflow. You won’t find a more energy efficient window treatment in Jacksonville. Want to stay toasty in bed in the winter and cool in the summer? Purchase Polywood plantation shutters for your bedroom.

Color

Bedroom window treatments are available in an array of styles to match your décor. If you want to bring in the warmth of wood, choose woven wood shades, Ovation wood plantation shutters, reclaimed wood shutters, sliding barn door shutters, or wood blinds. If you’re going for a more contemporary look, cellular shades, Polywood plantation shutters, or metal blinds are a better choice. Any of these bedroom window treatments can be customized with paints, stains, patterns, and more. Ask your window treatment professional about your color options in the Jacksonville area.

Quality

When you’re purchasing bedroom window treatments, buy for quality. Blinds, shades, and draperies are likely to break, lose their integrity, and discolor within 10 years.
