Blinds with a slim head rail suit bay windows to maximise window coverage. Venetian, pleated, and roman blinds would be our recommendation.

These would include 25mm Venetians, Pleated and Roman blinds.

We are happy to offer advice, please call our customer service team number or contact us via email.
