What are Privacy Mini-Blinds?
Most mini-blinds are constructed with tiny routing holes in the slats to accommodate string ladders. When the cords are pulled these ladders contract or expand to raise or lower the blinds. They also tip the slats up or down when the mini-blind’s wand is twisted clockwise or counterclockwise. Unfortunately these routing holes create a lack of privacy, particularly at night when the interior of a house or building is lit. This led to privacy mini-blinds, which maximize privacy. Privacy mini-blinds come in different designs, all of them eliminating the large, visible routing holes of standard mini-blinds. Some privacy mini-blinds do have routing holes but they are very small holes placed at the rear of the slats. When these mini-blinds are closed or tilted downwards, each slat’s face hides the routing hole of the slat beneath it. Some privacy mini-blinds are routeless, or do not have holes in the slats at all. Instead the stats have notched backs to hold the ladder strings. Other types o
