Best Blinds and Shades for the Kitchen

You may have the best kitchen in the world, but without window treatments, you're missing out on a world of functionality and style. Whether you're looking for something specific like privacy or light control, there's a window treatment that will work for every need. Here are our top picks for shades and blinds:

Kitchen Needs and Wants

There are a few aspects that set kitchens apart from other rooms in your home, particularly when it comes to blinds and shades:

First and foremost, this is a high-traffic room with many temperature changes. Anyone who has spent any amount of time in the kitchen knows that the difference between the oven or stovetop being on vs. off can make a big difference in the room's temperature.

Secondly, there tends to be more moisture in the kitchen compared to other rooms (bathrooms being the other notable location). With the humidity comes a higher chance of warping or cracking.

Lastly, despite the room having high-temperature fluctuations and getting messy occasionally, it's still a room where you regularly will have guests over.

Problem-Solving with Window Treatments

So according to our list above, you want an easy-to-clean, heat- and moisture-resistant, anti-warping, aesthetically pleasing blind or shutter that can support the style of the room without dominating the space (oh, and added benefit if it can help you save money and reduce your energy bill).

Sounds easy, right?

Surprisingly, yes. One of the most significant issues people have with big box store blinds is that they're rarely customized to the individual needs of the person or room. Blinds & Shutters of All Kinds customizes your window treatments not only to you and your style but also to the needs of the room.

Best Shades for the Kitchen

When it comes to shades, you have a few options. Roller shades can enhance the modern style that's so prevalent in kitchens nowadays; they also are easy to use, a definite perk when your hands are full or you're running between tasks.

Alternatively, if you have big windows and energy efficiency is a concern, consider Duette® Honeycomb Shades. Their unique construction actually makes your home more energy efficient and can save you money in the long run.

Best Blinds for the Kitchen

With all the extra considerations that come with setting up window treatments in your kitchen, we want to specifically look at blinds that aren't going to warp, crack, or peel in high-heat scenarios.

With this in mind, we suggest the following:

For those who are a fan of metal blinds, our aluminum blinds carry a sleek and modern profile that is sure to be a highlight for those modern kitchens.

For those who love the wood appearance, but don't want to deal with the blinds wearing out quickly, check out our faux wood alternatives. It has all the same look as wood, without the inherent risk involved.

Best Shutters for the Kitchen

Shutters are an excellent choice for kitchens. They can be used to block out light and heat, and they come in a variety of styles that will work well in any kitchen.

For the same reason that faux wood blinds are great, we love our Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Shutters. They're easy to use, look fantastic, and are going to be able to stand up to even the most challenging kitchen battles.
