Window decoration for small or narrow windows

In almost every home, you will find some small(er) or narrow windows. And you would like to fit them with window coverings. But which window coverings are suitable for small windows? And what do you need to consider? Let us tell you.

Preference for large windows

In general, Dutch houses are known for their large windows. We like to have as much light as possible. Where does our love for large windows come from? Perhaps because we have quite rainy and somewhat dark days here. And we want to take maximum advantage of daylight. And love it when the sun's rays find their way in through the window....Except on tropical days, then we do everything we can to keep those sunrays out. Of course, there are also plenty of smaller windows to be found in 'our' homes. You find them mostly in the bathroom. But also in the bedroom or in home offices. Or how about nice narrow windows next to the front door or on the side of a corner house. Beautiful of course, but often you can't find window coverings in standard sizes for small and narrow windows. The solution? Made-to-measure window decoration. Window decoration made especially for your window. The big advantage is often also that you have much more choice in colours and finishes compared to standard sizes.

Types of window decoration for small windows

For a small window, you can install basically any type of window decoration. However, it is important to consider the amount of light coming in. After all, you don't want to make a dark room even darker.

Blinds and shutters

If enough light comes in, you can opt for horizontal blinds or shutters, for example. These window coverings guarantee atmosphere with a slightly romantic touch, while they also look great with industrial furnishings. Venetian blinds and shutters are generally available in many different colours. You can tilt the slats into the position you want. The advantage of blinds is that you can pull them all the way up, which is not possible with a shutter.

Pleated blinds or roller blinds

Do you have a small or narrow window and is the room a bit darker? Then it's better to choose window decoration with a more minimalist look. For example, a pleated blind. Pleated blinds fit any interior and are therefore so popular. The top-down bottom-up operation allows you to decide where to position the pleated blind. On narrow, long windows, for example, halfway down the window is nice. This immediately limits the view into your home. Of course, you can also choose roller blinds. You can raise them completely during the day and roll them down at night.

Small bathroom window

If you are looking for window decoration for your small bathroom window, choose window coverings that can withstand humidity. Of course, it would be a real shame if your roller blind or pleated blinds did not withstand moisture and humidity and you had to replace them after only a short time.

Our framed window coverings

Every window deserves beautiful window decoration, including that one small window. Keje window coverings are suitable for small and narrow windows. And because of the aluminium frame, you can attach it without drilling into your window frames. You attach the frame between the glazing bars of the frame, which makes them very suitable for fixed plastic windows and tilt-and-turn windows. This way, the window covering always stays tight against your window. And the great thing is; the frame is available in a number of standard colours, but you can also choose your own colour. This way, you can have the frame match your window frame.
