Types of blinds

The blinds are objects that are used in homes or offices generally , which are formed from a series of sheets superimposed on each other vertically or horizontally; joined by a type of thread that is minimally joined at the ends of said sheets . The latter allows the person to unfold said sheets to let in sunlight or to keep the room dark .

This is possible, thanks to the fact that these blinds are placed on the windows of the rooms of the houses or offices. There are also blinds that cover the space of the doors when they are open or you do not want to see inside or when said doors are made of transparent glass. In addition to the fact that these objects allow the entry or exit of light to be handled, they have other characteristics.
