When people think of mini blinds, they think of the strings that tangle together, the poor quality, and the clutter, but now you can have blinds without the hassle. It is possible with enclosed blinds. Enclosed blinds are built into a framework and a simple lever is used to manipulate the blinds.

You will have to measure you window exactly for this kind of window treatment. The enclosed blind is designed to be a frame so that you do not have the little brackets for the top of the window, but an actual frame will be there. You can think of an enclosed blind like a storm window. It usually has a frame that fits in the window.

Enclosed blinds are easy to open and close by using the lever mechanism on the frame. Even though there are still strings used to open and close the enclosed blinds, they are inside the frame and won't get tangled like they do on exposed mini blinds. The slates can be totally closed for minimum light or completely opened for maximum light.

Believe it or not, the process of installing enclosed blinds is simpler than that for all of its more traditional counterparts. Since you only have to deal with a single piece, you can insert the blind directly adjacent to the window. The brackets fasten the blind by a direct connection to the window frame. The job couldn't be simpler, and i guarantee you will not miss the noise and debris from the power drill.

Enclosed blinds can be used alone or in pairs, this allows you to fully customize the amount of light being brought into a room, and they can be positioned either side by side or one above the other. As a normal rule of thumb these blinds are child proof, enclosed blinds don't have loose strings which could entangle your child, or having your child pull the blinds from the window.

This product serves you well, keeping out unwanted light and heat during those times you want to sleep and conserve electricity.

However, the quality will keep them on your windows well into the future, and the added energy savings will quickly pay off the extra cost.
