Top Down Bottom Up Blinds

Top down bottom up blinds are blinds that, in addition to the standard opening of normal blinds (bottom down), can also be opened by pulling the top part of the blind down as well. These are blinds that open from top and bottom. This allows you to lower the top to let natural light flood a room while maintaining privacy by blocking off the bottom part.

                Why are Blinds that Open from Top and Bottom Popular among Canadian Homeowners?

                Blinds that go up and down offer unparalleled benefits in terms of providing light control, while maintaining a high degree of privacy. Whereas with other blinds types such as Roller Blinds, Roman Shades, Vertical Blinds or Honeycomb Shades you have to choose between one or the other, top down bottom up shades offer both - at the same time. You can stop both the top and the lower part of the blinds at any position.


                Better Light Control

                Top-down bottom-up blinds are designed to give you full control over the amount of light you let into your living space. Whether you want to let in some natural light by leaving a gap open at the top, open them up entirely or close them all the way to create a warm, filtered glow, the options are unlimited.


                Full Privacy Control

                The clever part about their design is that you can maintain a high degree of privacy while letting some sunlight in. You can simply block off just the bottom (or top) part of your window and thereby obstruct the line of sight of curious neighbours. This is why this type of blind is particularly popular for ground-level windows.


                Top down bottom up shades provide 100% flexibility and are ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, bed rooms (if you opt for blackout blinds with top-down bottom-up functionality) and offices. They make balancing light and privacy simple and effective.

                Why Motorized Options are Popular with Top-Down Bottom-Up Blinds

                One challenge with top down blinds is that it can sometimes be difficult to reach the upper part of the blinds. In particular for tall windows, or for windows where direct access is obstructed by objects, such as tables, it can be difficult to make use of the top-down opening and closing functionality. In these situations, we recommend opting for Motorized Blinds with top-down bottom-up functionality. These blinds are operated via a remote control, or a wall-mounted control unit. With motorization, adjusting the blinds becomes an effortless task.
