The Best Window Treatments for Your Rental Property

Choosing the best window treatments for a rental property can improve both the look and comfort of a rental space. These options should appeal to a range of tenants, be easy to maintain, and comply with rental agreements. Faux wood blinds, roller shades, and neutral-coloured curtains are great examples, offering durability and a neutral style that fits most décor.

Which Window Treatments Are Right for Rentals?

Whether you're a renter or landlord, one of the most important things to think about when getting window treatments for your rental property is longevity. Not only getting a product that has the durability to last through years of renting, although that is also a factor. Additionally, making sure that the type of blinds or shades that you choose fit a variety of aesthetics and feel timeless, giving your apartment longterm value.

Some of the products most commonly chosen by our customers that fit these parameters are Roller Shades and Faux Wood Blinds. Both products are available in a range of light filtration levels–from light filtering to room darkening to blackout–and come in a variety of neutral colours. Ultimately, this gives you the ability to choose a window treatment for your rental space that is aesthetically pleasing and functional. 

Roller Shades for Rental Properties

Rollar shades are a simple and sturdy option making them a great choice for apartments and rental properties. Made from one single piece of fabric, roller shades are easy to clean and come in a wide range of colours and are also available as either blackout or light filtering. Both of these options give you ultimate privacy while being neutral enough to match any style. 

These shades operate either with a cordless mechanism, beaded chain, or motorised, depending on your needs. The cordless mechanisms are especially great in apartments as they eliminate any safety risks for kids or pets. 


Faux Wood Blinds for Rental Properties 

While roller shades are a great option for modern homes, or if you're looking for a truly neutral style, faux wood blinds lend themselves towards a more classic look. In addition to providing the flexibility of a blind–with slats that tilt as well as going up and down–blinds are an incredubly durable choice.

Made of a PVC composite, the slats of our faux wood blinds are moisture-resistant to prevent warping even in humid areas and hold up to damage from UV rays. Our faux wood blinds are available at multiple pricepoints, and in many neutral colourways, making them a smart investment for any rental property.
