Zebra blinds are becoming more popular, but what are they? And what benefits do they offer? In this post, we will find out.
Zebra blinds for windows are an alternative to conventional roller blinds. They feature two layers of fabric – one at the front and one at the rear – with alternating stripes of sheer and opaque on each. The sheer sections allow light to penetrate, while the opaque prevents light from entering the room. To cycle zebra blinds, simply line up the front and rear fabrics to either allow light in or block it out.
Zebra blinds – also called doubled roller blinds – offer multiple advantages. However, they also come with some drawbacks.
Installation of zebra blinds/double roller blinds is straightforward. First you’ll need to collect the tools required for installation:
You’ll also need to collect all of the components required to fit the blinds. (These should all arrive in your kit, along with instructions).
To learn more about the process, we’ve written a simple guide that you can follow.
Zebra blinds require minimal cleaning (partly because they are blinds, and partly because of the materials manufacturers use).
Here is a video we’ve produced, showing you precisely what you need to do.
MSBT’s zebra blinds come in a range of options, which we discuss below:
MSBT offers zebra shades in a vast array of colors to suit practically any interior. We offer three categories of color from which to choose: regular, linen and ready-made. Regular colors offer a wide selection of block tones to suit practically any room. Linen provides a slightly more natural aesthetic, while ready-made is primarily neutral colors such as grey and white.
You can also get MSBT zebra roller blinds in special types of fabric. Unique thin strips offer a distinctive decorative effect, helping to elevate your rooms, depending on your interior décor. Thin stripes bring out distinctive patterns of both light and shadow that differ from conventional double roller blinds.
Various shading options are available too. These options let you gain more control over the level of light entering your rooms.
Our Yoka Double Roller Blinds feature black gauze on the cloth to strengthen the shading effect. This option helps to block out more of the light entering your rooms – particularly effective when trying to reduce sunlight in the morning or evening.
Our Sima Double Roller Blinds offer both privacy shielding and daylighting functions. Privacy comes from the translucent material which scrambles incoming light, making it impossible for anyone outside to see occupants inside.
Lastly, Nonya Double Roller Blinds have a unique shading beauty with fine lines. The thin stripes create unusual light patterns and decorative effects in your interiors, changing how they appear.
MSBT also offers a choice of electric-type or hand-pulled electric-type zebra blinds, adding convenience. Electric double roller blinds adjust lighting levels in your rooms fast with the simple flick of a button on the accompanying remote control.
There are four different types of motorized zebra blinds available through us. The first is a standard electric motor which requires power distributed in advance, either 110V or 220V.
The second is a rechargeable battery motor. This option is ideal for anyone wanting to avoid installing new wiring or circuitry in their home. Circuit distribution is not required. Simply connect the battery pack to the mains via a USB charging device when you need to top it up.
MSBT also offers quiet motor options. These offer motors with reduced operational noise. They are not silent, but they are significantly less sound-producing than conventional options.
Lastly, we offer a simple pull. Instead of relying on a remote control, these double roller blinds have a cord similar to their conventional counterparts. When you pull on it, it activates the mechanism to raise or lower the blind to your preferred height.
All four choices – electric, rechargeable battery, quiet and simple pull – are available with our zebra blinds (just like our regular roller blind collection), giving you tremendous flexibility over your setup.
If you choose a mains-supplied option, you will need to distribute electricity to either side of the blind before installation. Before you place your order, tell us where the blind can draw power as this will affect the installation.
You don’t necessarily need a remote control. However, remotes are available on regular electric motor, rechargeable and quiet motor options. Remotes are both one-to-one and one-to-many, meaning that you can control multiple blinds in your home with a single command.
Grid power-driven blinds cannot operate during a blackout. However, rechargeable battery options can. You can continue to operate your blinds throughout the outage, allowing more sunlight into your rooms.
The size of your curtain box depends primarily on the electric motor option you choose. On electric and quiet motors, a wire section protrudes from either the right or left of the headrail.
On rechargeable versions, the motor and battery remain hidden behind shrouding and there are no visible external wires. The appearance is the same as conventional manual roller blinds.
App-controlled blinds are also available if you have the correct software installed on your device. These connect to your zebra blinds via your WiFi connection to activate the motor. You can also pair these with home assistance, such as Alexa, Google home assistant or Siri, allowing you to control the position of your blinds with voice commands. Moreover, smart blinds are controllable, even when you are not at home.
