When you are buying custom blinds it can be hard to decide whether you will buy horizontal blinds to cover small door windows or enclosed blinds. For many it can get old worrying about blinds getting ruined from repeated opening and closing of doors, so it can be almost better to buy blinds that are enclosed.

There are plenty of advantages to enclosed blinds over custom blinds. For example, enclosed blinds don’t require much maintenance other than cleaning of the exterior glass. Most of these blinds also don’t have a pull string or strung chord which can get broken or hung up on things when opening and closing a door. Usually enclosed blinds just have a lever that can be pulled up and down which controls them.

Another great thing about enclosed blinds is that they are very thin and fit right over the door in a clean flush mounted way. Within the enclosure is really just some very small mini blinds which nicely hang over each other when closed.

If you are going to buy custom blinds for your doors and certain types of windows, then you will want to consider the amount of use that may cause you to replace the blinds or shades sooner than you would think. If this is a concern then enclosed blinds probably will be a safer bet after all.
