Have you ever wondered why people would layer two different types of blinds on top of each other? While it isn’t essential for every room in the home, it is a must for rooms that face the street or require an extra level of privacy and light control. Installing both blockout and mesh roller blinds together can offer a range of benefits:

1. Versatility: By having both blockout and mesh roller blinds, you can enjoy the benefits of each depending on the time of day or your specific needs. Blockout blinds are perfect for nighttime privacy, light control, and insulation, while mesh can be used during the day to filter sunlight, maintain privacy, and allow airflow through.
2. Temperature Regulation: Blockout blinds are effective at insulating your home, helping to regulate indoor temperatures by trapping heat during colder months and blocking out excess heat during warmer months. Mesh blinds, on the other hand, allow air to circulate freely while still providing some shade, helping to keep your home cooler on hot days without completely blocking out natural light.
3. Privacy and Security: Blockout blinds offer excellent privacy, ensuring that your activities inside the house remain private from prying eyes outside, especially at night. Mesh blinds can provide daytime privacy by obscuring the view into your home while still allowing you to see outside, maintaining a sense of security.
4. Light Control: Blockout blinds are highly effective at blocking out light, making them ideal for bedrooms, home theatres, or any room where you want to control glare or create a darkened environment for sleeping or watching movies. Mesh blinds, meanwhile, filter sunlight and soften the light entering your home, creating a pleasant, diffused illumination that brightens the space without causing glare.
5. Aesthetic Appeal: By combining blockout and mesh blinds, you can achieve a layered look that adds depth and visual interest to your windows. Choose complementary colours and textures to enhance your home’s decor and create a stylish, cohesive look that reflects your personal taste and style. Additionally, the versatility of having both types of curtains allows you to easily switch between them to suit different occasions or moods
