If you opt for dark colors to cover your windows, a very elegant one is a dark green. For example, dark green curtains will give a touch of stillness and being dark, it will be elegant and subtle, being able to create contrasts with the rest of the decor. Another very common dark color is blue or dark gray. Choose your dark blinds or curtains.
When it comes to decorating your home, dark curtains or blinds are an exceptional choice that combines style and functionality. At Cortinadecor, we have a varied range of dark-toned curtains for you to choose the ones that best match your decor. It's important to note that the darkness of a curtain doesn't depend solely on its color. The color of the fabric should not be confused with the transparency of the material. For example, you can opt for a thin fabric like a sheer in a dark color. In this case, despite the dark color, a sheer will not completely block out the light. The opposite case would be opaque curtains in a light color. The combinations are endless.
Therefore, the key lies in understanding your needs when choosing your curtains or blinds, to select the transparency of the fabric and then the color. In our collection, you'll find everything from fabrics that filter light while maintaining some visibility to completely opaque fabrics that block 100% of light. For instance, we can offer you light curtains with a high opacity rate, ideal for maintaining a light aesthetic without sacrificing functionality.
In addition to controlling light, you can find curtains with different functionalities, such as fire-retardant curtains or thermal curtains. Fire-retardant curtains are a safe and durable option, especially recommended for commercial or public spaces. On the other hand, thermal curtains are perfect for keeping your home comfortable throughout the year; in winter they help retain heat and in summer they block the sun's rays, keeping spaces cooler.

It is important to note that the width of the blind corresponds to the measurement from the outside of one support to the outside measurement of the other support, and there will always be 5 cm less fabric. For example, if we order a 100 cm blind, the fabric size will be 95 cm.
When it comes to separating our blind from the window, it all depends on the type of support and whether it is fixed to the ceiling or the wall.
1. If we choosethe short wall bracket andstuck drop, it will have a spacing of about 2 cm.
2. If we choosewall bracket short and cascading drop, it will have a spacing of about 7 cm.
3. If we choose the long wall bracket and hanging down, it will have a spacing of about 3.3 cm.
4. If we choose the long wall bracket and cascade drop, it will have a spacing of about 11 cm.
If the blind is installed on the ceiling, it can be spaced as needed so that it does not hit any obstacles when it is lowered.
The screen fabric allows you to regulate the amount of light that passes through the fabric and allows you to preserve the view depending on the degree of aperture.
There are several degrees of aperture:
· 1% opening
Minimum transparency and low visibility to the outside.
· 3% opening
Transparency medium and low visibility to the outside.
· Opening 5%
Medium transparency and good visibility to the outside.
Your order will include:
- Made-to-measure product in the chosen color.
- Supports, screws and mechanisms.
And it's ready for easy installation.
With screen fabric, the less light there is on the outside, the more visibility there is on the inside, depending on the degree of openness you choose.
This means that during the day you will not be seen from the outside, but during the evening and night there is a certain degree of visibility to the inside.
· Opening 1%: Low visibility to the interior.
· 3% opening: Low visibility to the interior.
· 5% opening: Good visibility for the interior.
· Opening 10%: Great visibility to the interior.
Roller blinds are made from synthetic fabrics that repel dust, especially screen and opaque fabrics. That's why we don't need to put them in the washing machine to clean them. Firstly, lower the blind until it is fully unfolded, there is no need to remove it from its supports. If it has a stain, a towel or a simple damp cloth and soap will be enough to clean it. Likewise, dust can also be removed using a vacuum or pressurized air, without scrubbing. Of course, we must not use solvents or abrasive substances that could damage the fabric coating, such as ammonia or bleach. Care should be taken with photographic blinds, as they are more delicate.
